Does the weight of an object immersed in a buoyant liquid affect the buoyant force on the object?
It is not the weight of the immersed object but the volume of the object would affect the buoyant force on the immersed object because the buoyant force is nothing but the weight of the displaced liquid whose volume is equal to that of the immersed object.
What actually affect buoyant force?
-- volume of the object immersed in fluid -- density of the fluid in which the object is immersed
An upward force on an object immersed in a fluid?
Buoyant force
The force exerted by a liquid on an immersed in it is called?
"What is the force exerted by a still liquid on an immersed non-moving object called? -- PressureOtherwise, if the object is moving, one could also have "shear forces".
What is a deplacement?
The deplacement method is when a object is immersed in a liquid the water is deplaced
Can you say that the volume of fluid displaced equals volume of immersed object by using Archimedes principle?
Yes, assuming that immersed object has no internal voids which the fluid cannot fill (e.g. a hollow sphere).
Why is an immersed object buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid it displaces?
Because buoyancy is a property of fluids, and not the object immersed in them. By comparing densities, you get that buoyancy is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced, because the volume of an object is equal to the volume displaced.
What is the result when the force pushing up on an immersed object is greater than the force pushing it down?
The object floats
An object immersed in a fluid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object?
Archimedes' principle
How can an irregular volume be measured?
By placing the object in water and the volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of the object immersed
What would happen if an object is immersed in a fluid and the object and the fluid had the same density?
The object would behave as a part of fluid and it will remain where it is kept.
What is a deplacement method?
The deplacement method is when a object is immersed in a liquid the water is deplaced
