An 800-pound boat would displace 800 pounds of water, according to Archimedes' principle. Since water has a density of approximately 62.4 pounds per cubic foot, the volume of water displaced can be calculated by dividing the weight by the density. This results in about 12.82 cubic feet of water displaced.
What else can I help you with?
Box A and Box B have the same weight. If you placed each box into a beaker of water which one will displace more water?
It depends on the volume of the box. The bigger the volume, the larger amount of water that will be displaced.
How do you you find volume from weight?
Weight doesn't tell you the volume. One pound of air, one pound of water, and one pound of gold all have vastly different volumes.
How much air do you need to float 1 lbs in water?
To float 1 pound in water, you would need to displace 1 pound of water. This is because of Archimedes' principle, which states that the buoyant force acting on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. So you would need to displace enough water to counteract the weight of the 1 pound object and make it float.
How much water was displace?
The amount of water displaced is equal to the volume of the object submerged in the water. It can be calculated using the formula: volume of water displaced = weight of the object / density of water.
Which ship displaces more water 1 loaded with a cargo of corks which float or a empty one?
If you add any load on the ship, its weight will increase, and thus, it will displace more water.If you add any load on the ship, its weight will increase, and thus, it will displace more water.If you add any load on the ship, its weight will increase, and thus, it will displace more water.If you add any load on the ship, its weight will increase, and thus, it will displace more water.
Does a rectangular or circular boat hold more weight?
It depends on which has more surface area.. and more volume to displace water.
Why a dead body rises up in water and a living person goes down water?
A dead body decomposes in water as the organs & cells absorb water.The decomposed body increases in volume weight to displace more water to float. A living body cannot displace water as the volume and tends to sink in water.
How much does a 10 pound brick weigh underwater?
That depends on the volume of the brick. Whatever its volume is, its weight underwater is(weight of the brick in air) minus (weight of an equal volume of water)
How does a 1.3 billion pound boat float?
It must displace as much weight in water as it weighs (roughly 600 cubic meters of water). These boats have huge hulls, so can easily displace this much without beginning to sink.
How much water does a 1 pound fish displace?
It displaces 1 pound of water in terms of its mass, if you were to convert to volume, it is a simple conversion with any mass, water has a density of 1 meaning that 1kg of water takes up 1 litre of volume, so, a 1 pound fish roughly displaces 455mL of water.
Do objects of the same volume displace the same amount of water?
Yes, objects of the same volume will displace the same amount of water regardless of their shape or material. This is because the volume of water displaced is determined by the volume of the object that is submerged in the water. This principle is known as Archimedes' principle.
How much water does a 210 lb person displace?
A 210 lb person would displace approximately 26.25 gallons (around 100 liters) of water based on the assumption that 1 pound of body weight equals roughly 0.125 gallons of water.
