Question

A body of weight 200kgf is floating .What is the upthrust on
it in floating condition?

Answer 1

200Kgf means the mass is 200 Kg

Upthrust= Volume× Density× acc. due to gravity

= Volume× Mass/ Volume× acc.due to gravity { density= mass/ volume}

=Mass × acc.due to gravity

=200Kg × 10 m/s^2

= 2000 N
