Does An object's buoyant force and weight mean the same thing?
no because buoyant means how much can an object float and weight means how much it weighs.
Why is air more buoyant than water?
Air is more buoyant than water because air is less dense than water, and everything the thing that is less dense is always more buoyant than what is more dense than it.
What force makes people float?
gravity
True or false an object buoyant force and weight arent the same thing?
Yes they are different things. Buoyant force is always upward. Weight is always downward. Also ... -- Weight depends on the object's mass. -- Buoyant force depends on its volume, and on what it's floating in.
What is the buoyant force acting on a 1000 pound floating in water?
If it's floating, then the buoyant force on it is exactly equal to its weight. (That makes the vector sum of the vertical forces zero, which is why the object is not accelerating vertically.)
Is lead buoyant?
No, lead is not buoyant. It is incredibly dense, which makes it very heavy, and not able to float.
What makes it easy to float?
Salt Water, because it is makes things more buoyant.
Does less ballast makes an object less buoyant?
No, the opposite.
Does an objects buoyant and weight mean the same thing?
no because buoyant means how much can an object float and weight means how much it weighs.
Why a lifejacket helps you float?
It's full of air that makes it buoyant
What makes the sea so buoyant?
Salt makes sea water more buoyant. The Dead Sea has the most salt of any sea in the world, and even people who cannot swim have no problem floating in it.
Does An object's buoyant force and weight mean the same thing?
no because buoyant means how much can an object float and weight means how much it weighs.
Why is air more buoyant than water?
Air is more buoyant than water because air is less dense than water, and everything the thing that is less dense is always more buoyant than what is more dense than it.
What makes some matter buoyant?
If the object or matter has a density lower than water does.
Why does a beach ball float on water?
Because a beachball is filled with air and that makes it buoyant.
By expanding and contracting their swim bladders fish can change their level in water How does this enable fish to become more or less buoyant?
(a) This helps them become more or less buoyant, because if they release the gas then they will sink making it more buoyant by getting air from the surface or from other bubbles it makes them less buoyant, making them float.
