No. Water is incompressible. Buoyancy is determined by density, and being incompressible the density stays the same. Once an object is submerged there's no more buoyancy to be generated.

The set up of apparatus of Archimedes principle?

If you want to test the principle that the bouyant force on a submerged object is equal to the weight of the water it displaces, here is a procedure. Get a balance scale and weigh the object by hanging the object from a string attached to the scale pan (rather then just placing it on the pan). Next, place the hanging object in a graduated cylinder with a known amount of water. The water level in the graduated cylinder will rise when the object is submerged. The amount the water rises will give you the volume of water displaced and you can calculate the weight of that amount of water knowing the density of water. Next, readjust your balance scale to get the object's weight while submerged. You should find the objects weight has decreased by an amount equal to the weight of the displaced water. Meaning the water is exerting an upward "bouyant" force by this amount.


What is the driving force behind the movement of water through the water cycle?

The driving force behind the movement of water through the water cycle is the energy from the sun.


What was the depth of the water the Lusitania sank in?

Over 200 metres deep


How much water does it take to fill a 16 x 32 pool?

Without knowing the average depth of your pool, it is impossible to know. However, assuming the average depth of your pool is 4 feet, it hold 15360 gallons of water.


How do ocean currents develop?

An ocean current is a continuous, directed movement of ocean water generated by the forces acting upon the water, such as the wind, Coriolis force, temperature and differences and salinity tides caused by the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun. Depth contours, shorelines configurations and interaction with other currents influence a current's direction and strength.

Why is it easier to lift an object that is underwater than it is to live the object whenit is out of the water?

the water provides a bouyant force proportional to the volume of water displaced.


This force describes how water exerts an upward force on submerged objects?

This is called a "bouyant" force. It is due to the difference in water pressure between the top of the object and the bottom of the object. Water pressure increases with depth.


How is bouyant force of water related to the volume of the body placed inside it?

The buoyant force acting on a body in water is directly proportional to the volume of water displaced by the body. This is known as Archimedes' principle. The greater the volume of water displaced, the greater the buoyant force exerted on the body.


What is the bouyancy of air?

Bouyant force was described by Archimedes to be equal to the force due to gravity of the substance displaced by the object. So in the case of a balloon in water the bouyant force is equal to the force of weight of the water that the balloon displaces otherwise known as the (volume of the balloon)*(density of water)*gravity. Hope that helps


What is the relationship between water depth an pressure?

The relationship between water depth and pressure is linear. As water depth increases, the pressure exerted by the water also increases. This relationship is described by the hydrostatic pressure formula, which states that pressure is directly proportional to the depth of the fluid and the density of the fluid.


What is buognant force?

The force applied by the liquid on the solid immersed in it is called bouyant force .one can experience this force by pushing a cork into a beaker of water.


What force acts against gravity in water?

Buoyant force acts against gravity in water. This force is exerted by the water on an object that is submerged or floating in it and acts in the opposite direction to gravity. Bouyant force is what allows objects to float and feel lighter when in water.


How can you determine density of plastic that has a lower density than water?

release the plastic in water it will flow because bouyant force of water is greater than platic


What is the differences in fluid pressure create buoyant force on an object?

its because the water puts fluid pressure everywhere on the object which creates a bouyant force.


What is the bouyant force on a cake of soap placed in a bath tub of water when it sinks?

The buoyant force on the soap is equal to the weight of the water displaced by the soap. When the soap sinks, it displaces its own volume of water. So the buoyant force is equal to the weight of this volume of water.


Is there bouyant force on an object at the bottom of an ocean?

As long as any part of the object ... doesn't matter how much ... is below the surface of the water ... doesn't matter how far ... there is buoyant force on it.


Why do cars sink?

the car has more density than water i.ethe weight of the water displaced is more than the bouyant force acting on the car.
