19.6N in the upward direction.
sangpuiirenthlei4226:
actually, I need the calculation
First we need the weight of the body.
So weight = mass of the body × acceleration due to gravitation
Weight= 2kg×9.8m/s^2
Weight=19.6N
Now the water is creating such a buoyant force that it can float the body in its surface.
so it will be obvious that it is cancelling the whole weight
Therefore the buoyant force=19.6N opposite to the direction of gravitational pull
I think i hv made myself clear, so if pls put a like to my answer
thank you so much
