Will a rock gain or lose buoyant force as it sinks deeper in water or will the buoyant force remain the same as it goes deepr in the water?

the buoyant force will remain the same because the rock will displace the same amount of water volume at any depth.
Theoretically, it will gain buoyancy as it sinks, because when an objects density matches the density of the water around it, and water becomes denser as it falls deeper, it will be neutrally buoyant or floating. But since a rock is always going to be more dense than water it would still sink.

∙ 14y agoas it sinks deeper into water the effective value of acceleraion due to gravity increases so the weight of the body will increase thereby resulting in an increase of buoyant force but if we assume the value of acceration due to gravity to be a constant than the force remains same.

The buoyant force on an object is least when the object is?
The buoyant force is zero when the object is just touching the liquid. As the object displaces more volume, the buoyant force increases until the object is completely submerged. Once the object is submerged, it doesn't matter how deep it is, the buoyant force remains constant.
In a vacuum does an object have buoyant force?
No.
When the buoyant force is equal to the force of gravity an object will?
float in the fluid
What is the the force with which a more dense fluid pushes a less dense substance upward?
the buoyant force
Will a swimmer gain or lose buoyant force as she swims deeper in the water?
If she is completely immersed, there would only be a change if the water changes density (unlikely) or she changes her volume (also unlikely) as the buoyancy force is the product of her volume under the water, the density of the fluid and gravitational acceleration. If none of those change, then the buoyancy force will not change.
As an object sinks deeper into fluid does buoyant force remain the same?
Yes as long as it does not compress as it sinks further.
How does the buoyant force on a boat change if the boat is loaded?
The heavier the boat is loaded, the deeper in the water the boat will float.
As an object falls deeper into a fluid the buoyant force is what?
Increasing, because the volume of displaced fluid, and therefore the weight of displaced fluid, is increasing.
What is the relationship between buoyant force and gravity?
buoyant force is always or equal to the force exerted by gravity. that's why an object floats.
Is the buoyant force of a metal equal to the buoyant force of a wood that has the same mass?
Buoyant force is based upon the mass of the water displaced. Therefore, two objects will have the same buoyant force if they have the some volumes.
What is an buoyant force?
A buoyant force equals the weight of the fluid being displaced
What is the relationship of buoyant force and density of liquid?
Buoyant force is directly proportional to the density of the liquid. as the density of the liquid increases, the Buoyant force increases.
In a stationary fluid is the buoyant force exerted equally in all directions?
No, the buoyant force comes from a pressure difference between the top and the bottom of the object. the deeper you go the larger the pressure gets, that means when you are under water there is more pressure pushing you up than down(more pressure at the bottom than top), making you feel liter. the buoyant force on the sides are both the same so they cancel each other out. also, the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.
What are the factors of buoyant force?
The buoyant force depends on the volume of liquid displaced and the density of the liquid.
Which term describes the upward push of a fluid on an object in the fluid?
the 'buoyant' force
What happens if the buoyant force decreases?
As buoyant force decreases then the body starts sinking down.
What is the relationship between density of a liquid and the buoyant force exerted on the mass?
buoyant force = density of the liquid*Volume*gravity. so the buoyant force is directly proportional to the density of a liquid.
