What causes an object to weigh less when submerged in water?
An object seems to weigh less when submerged in water because the buoyancy of the water is greater than that of air, causing a force to be applied to the object, reducing the apparent net force that is required to support the object. However, gravity is gravity, and the object still weighs the same. Its just that there is an additional force acting on the object in opposition to the force of gravity. If you were to weigh a volume of water, and then weigh it again with an object in it, you would discover that the total weight did, in fact, increase by the weight of the object. Note that this is all independent of the object's mass. Mass and weight are two different things, and they should not be confused. The object's mass also does not change just because it is submerged in water. To illustrate this last point, an object in outer space does not weigh anything, because the net force of gravity is zero, but the object still has mass, and it requires the same force it always did in order to accelerate it at a certain rate.
If the mass of an object is weigh and the object is dropped in cylinder containing water but the object is not fully under water will this affect the density?
The density of what? But regardless the answer to that: Density is mass per volume. Mass is not influenced by the upward force of the fluid in which the object is submerged. The weight, on the other hand, is. Weight is a force, and mass is an amount of matter.
What You weigh the mass of an object you then cut the object in two halfs and weigh the total mass of the two halves is what to the mass of the original object?
it is equal to the mass of the original object
Do objects with buoyancy have more or less mass?
Objects with buoyancy have the same mass regardless of whether they are submerged or floating. Buoyancy is determined by the weight of the fluid displaced by the object, not the object's mass. Therefore, an object's mass remains constant while its buoyancy changes based on the fluid it is in.
Why do objects with more mass weigh more than objects with less mass?
Objects with more mass weigh more because weight is directly proportional to mass. The gravitational force acting on an object is stronger when the object has more mass, resulting in a greater weight measurement.
If a 25kg object is submerged and displaces 20kg of liquid the object will?
Sink. It's density will be greater than water, which is 1 kg per litre.
Why would you weigh less on the moon but your mass stays the same?
You would weigh less on the moon because it has less gravity pulling on you compared to Earth. Weight is the measure of the gravitational force acting on an object, while mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, which remains constant regardless of location.
Does a balloon without air weigh the same filled with air?
No, a balloon without air would weigh less than a balloon filled with air. The weight of an object is determined by the mass of the object and without the air filling the balloon, there is less mass present, therefore less weight.
How can an object stay the same but weight less?
An object can maintain its physical dimensions but weigh less if its density decreases. This can be achieved by replacing some of its material with a lighter substance or by creating empty pockets within the object. Additionally, if the object is in a location with lower gravity or if the buoyant force acting on it increases, it may effectively weigh less.
What two factors influence the buoyancy of an object?
The buoyancy of an object is influenced by its weight (or mass) and the density of the fluid it is submerged in. Objects that are less dense than the fluid will float, while objects that are denser will sink.
How do you get the mass of the object?
An easy way to do that is to weigh the object. In principle, the mass can be derived from the weight.
How do you find the mass of an irregular object in common balance?
To find the mass of an irregular object using a common balance, you can first weigh a known object with a regular shape to calibrate the balance. Then, weigh the irregular object. Subtract the mass of the known object from the total mass to determine the mass of the irregular object.
