How Do You Find Buoyant Force Buoyancy When a body is immersed in a liquid, the liquid exerts an upward force on the body called as the 'upthrust' or 'buoyant force.'Factors affecting upthrust: 1. Larger the volume of the body submerged in the liquid, greater is the upthrust. 2. Larger the density of the liquid, greater is the upthrust. Applying Archimedes' … [Read more...] about How Do You Find Buoyant Force

Understanding Buoyancy Using Archimedes’s Principle
Understanding Buoyancy Using Archimedes's Principle Archimedes’ principle states that for a body wholly or partially immersed in a fluid, the upward buoyant force acting on the body is equal to the weight of the fluid it displaces. Figure shows an object wholly immersed in a liquid. According to Archimedes’ principle:Buoyancy of ObjectsFigure shows four … [Read more...] about Understanding Buoyancy Using Archimedes’s Principle
