Question

applications of archimede principle

Answer 1

Archimedes principles

states that when a body is immersed fully or partially in a fluid, it experience an upward thrust which is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by it.

Application:-

• Designing ships and submarines.
• Hydrometers are used to measure density of liquids.

Answer 2

According to Archimedes' principle, "When a body is partially are fully immersed in a liquid it experiences an upthrust whose magnitude is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by the body."

Archimedes' Principle has many important and practical application few of them are :-

• Archimedes'principle is used in designing ships and submarines.
• Working of lactometers, used for determining the purity of milk, is based on Archimedes' principle.
• Working of hydrometer, used for determining the density of liquids, is also based on Archimedes' principle.
• Archimedes' principle is used to determine the relative density of a substance.
