Is is related through Archimedes principle, which states that the buoyancy force on an object is equal to the weight of liquid displaced by the submerged object. The weight of a volume of water is equal to the volume x density of water x the gravitational constant.

How does the buoyant force on a fully submerged object compare with the weight of the water displaced?

The buoyant force on any object in water is equal to the weight of the displaced water, regardless of how much of the object is submerged.


How does the buoyant force on a submerged object compare with the weight of water displaced?

They are equal.


How does the buoyant force on a fully submerged object compare with the water displaced?

The buoyant force on a fully submerged object is equal to the weight of the water displaced. In fact, that's also true of a floating object.


How does the buoyant force of a fully submerged object compare with the weight of the water displaced?

The magnitude of both forces is the same.


Why does buoyant force act upward on an object submerged in water?

The greater the pressure against the bottom of a submerged object produces an upward buoyant force


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.


When the pressure at the bottom of a submerged object is the pressure at the top of the submerged object a buoyant force is produced.?

FALSE

When the weight of a submerged object is less than the buoyant force will the object sink?

No.


When the pressure at the bottom of a submerged object is greater than the pressure at the top of the submerged object a buoyant force is produced.?

FALSE


Does the buoyant force on a submerged object depend on the volume of the object ir the weight of the object?

On its volume.


When the pressure at the bottom of a submerged object is less than the pressure at the top of the submerged object a buoyant force is produced.?
