only earth. __________________ No. Adding weight will slow it down, but the angular momentum would be preserved. In order to stop it completely, some opposite force would need to be exerted to neutralize the angular momentum.

What will happen if the weight of an object is greater than the weight of the water that it displaces?

If the weight of an object is greater than the weight of the water it displaces, the object will sink. This is because the buoyant force exerted by the water on the object is not enough to counteract the object's weight, resulting in it sinking in the water.


If the weight of the water an object dieplaces is less than the weight of the objact?

If the weight of the water displaced is less than the weight of the object, the object will sink. This is because the buoyant force acting on the object is not enough to counteract its weight. As a result, the object will continue to sink until it reaches a point where the buoyant force equals its weight, leading to equilibrium.


Partially submerged object floats when?

A partially submerged object floats when the weight of the water it displaces is equal to its own weight, creating a balance that allows it to remain buoyant. This is known as Archimedes' principle. If the object's weight is greater than the weight of the water it displaces, it will sink, and if the object's weight is less, it will float completely above the water.


Why does the object apparently loss weight when completlely submerged in water?

An object will appear to lose weight when completely submerged in water due to the buoyant force acting on it. This force is equal to the weight of the water displaced by the object, causing it to feel lighter in water compared to in air.


Does an objects weight change in the water?

No. Weight = mass * g, where g = 9.8 m/s2, a constant. The mass of an object does not change unless it undergoes a chemical or nuclear change. Hence its weight is a constant too. However, the "apparent weight" changes because the inherent weight is now compensated somewhat by buoyancy, acting in the opposite direction as gravity. The weight of a piece of wood in water will be completely opposed by the buoyancy and so it floats. The weight of a concrete block cannot be completely compensated by buoyancy and so it sinks. ========================

If you spin a spinner fast enough will it float?

No, a spinner will not float even if spun fast enough. Floating requires an object to displace enough air or liquid to counteract its weight, and spinning does not create lift in the way that wings do. Instead, spinning can create some aerodynamic effects, but it won't overcome gravity to make the spinner float.

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.


The weight of an object is based on what?

Its mass and the gravity of the objects that are close enough to it to have a great effect on it.


A completely submerged object always displaces its own?

mass of fluid, weight of fluid, density of fluid.


What is the underwater weight of an object that sinks to the bottom of a body of water and is completely submerged?

You will find that such an object will weigh its weight on land minus the weight of the water it displaceswhen submerged. It doesn't seem possible, but it is true. This kind of result is called 'counterintuitive'.


What is the mass of an object that weighs one gram?

The question cannot be answered. If you are smart enough to distinguish between mass and weight, you should know that the weight of an object is not measured in grams but in Newtons.


What is the buoyant force of a 150lb object submerged in water?

That completely depends on the object's volume (which you have not mentioned). The buoyant force on it is equal to the weight of an equal volume of water.


An object floats because it displaces a weight of fluid?

An object floats for three reasons. One, it is less dense than the solution it is floating in. Such as a piece of wood. Two, the object contains something that is less dense than what it is floating in. Such as a baloon. Three, the shape of the object is such that it does not have enough weight to displace enough of the solution to envelop the object. Such as with any seagoing vessell.
