Best Answer

The weight as measured by a spring balance (registers weight by how far a spring is stretched). If the article is in water, etc, the registered weight will be less than the article's true weight.

What is apparent weight how the apparent weight is different for different condition?

Apparent Weight is the weight of an Object in a SPECIFIC Gravitational condition, such as on Earth. The same object on the Moon would have a different (Lesser) Apparent Weight. The only constant is the Mass of the Object in both of those locations.


If the apparent weight of an object can be found by subtracting the buoyant force from the weight of the object what is the apparent weight of the floating object?

Zero.


What is apparent weight?

Apparent weight of an object is the weight of an object when the object is partially or totally immersed in a fluid{liquid/gas} normally apparent weight of an object is less than the real weight of an object due to an upward force {upthrust} which is produced by the pressure difference inside the fluids.


What is the apparent mass in water?

Apparent Weight =weight Of Water- Upward Thrust =(mg- Density Of Water Displaced*volume Of Liquid*gravity)


When is the apparent weight of an object zero?

When there is no gravity.


Relate True weight Buoyant force and Apparent weight?

it is the gravity of difference buoyat force


What is the acceleration due to gracity due to apparent weight?

weightless


How mass and weight similar?

Mass is an intrinsic property of matter. Weight is the apparent weight of a mass under a particular acceleration.


Can the apparent weight of a man be negative?

yes in case of buoyant force........


In an elevator when is your apparent weight less than your real weight?

When the lift is accelerating downwards. See related question.


What is the apparent weight of a submarine that weighs 1256N and it displaces 1562N of water?

Apparent weight = Fg - Fb = 1256 - 1562 = -306 N so in this case buoyance force is greater than its real weight so it must be rising to the water surface and floats.
