WHAT IS the relation between the Buoyant force and the weight of an object floating in a liquid?

When an object is floating in equilibrium, the buoyant force equals the weight of the object. (The buoyant force is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid)


What relation do you find between the weight of the floating body and the waight of water that is displaced?

They are equal.When a boat is floating on water it displaces water equal to its weight(Archimedes Principle). As the density of water is less than boat so water displaced is greater than volume of boat. When the boat sinks water displaced is equal to volume of boat. So less water is displaced in 2nd case and consequently water level goes down.Note - relation between volume(v) mass(m) and density(d) : d = m/v


How is the weight of water displaced by a floating body related to the weight of the body itself?

As the body floats then the weight of the body and weight of displaced liquid would be equal to each other. Hence it floats


What is the apparent weight for a body floating in water equal to?

if its floating, its zero : weight or force = upthrust from water note: upthrust from water = weight of water displaced


What keeps ships afloat and why?

The weight of water displaced by the floating ship is less than the weight of the ship. So it floats. Thanks to Archimedes!


What are the conditions to a object to sink?

Right principle is "Archimedes Principle" When the weight of the sinking object exceeds the weight of the displaced liquid sinking continues. If otherwise the body would be pushed up and it would start floating on the surface. At the time of floating, the weight of the body = weight of the liquid displaced


When the boat is fully loaded it floats lower in the water than when it is empty?

As per Archimedes principle for floating the weight of the displaced water has to be equal to the weight of the boat. Hence for more water to get displaced the boat has to sink more.


Which scientist first stated the relationship between buoyant force and weight of a displaced fluid?

Archimedes first stated the relationship between buoyant force and weight of a displaced fluid.


What is the relationship between buoyant force and the volume of water displaced?

Buoyant force is equal to the weight of the water displaced.


How does the buoyant force on a fully submerged object compare with the water displaced?

The buoyant force on a fully submerged object is equal to the weight of the water displaced. In fact, that's also true of a floating object.


What is the relationship between the weight of displaced liquid and the buoyant force on the body?

Boyant force on a body will equal weight of displaced liquid or the body keeps sinking


Why does the water level go down when a boat sinks?

When a boat is floating on water it displaces water equal to its weight(Archimedes Principle). As the density of water is less than boat so water displaced is greater than volume of boat. When the boat sinks water displaced is equal to volume of boat. So less water is displaced in 2nd case and consequently water level goes down. Note - relation between volume(v) mass(m) and density(d) : d = m/v
