define Archimedes principle?
Answers
Answer:
hi dear....
Explanation:
☆Archimedes' principle states that the upward buoyant force that is exerted on a body immersed in a fluid, whether fully or partially submerged, is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces. Archimedes' principle is a law of physics fundamental to fluid mechanics.
have a great day (◠‿・)
Answer:
Explanation:
Archimedes Principle:
The apparent loss in weight of an object immersed in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.
Statement;
The Archimedes principle states that the buoyant force acting on a body, partially or wholly immerses in a fluid, is equal to the weight of fluid displaced by the body.
Thus, if a body immersed in water displaces a volume of water equal to 1 cu. m, the buoyant force acting on body will be equal to product of mass of displaced volume of water and acceleration due to gravity. Therefore,
F= m×g = vol.× density×g
= 1 cu. m× 1000 kg/cu. m × 9.8= 9800 N
Application:
For a ship to float on water, the weight of the water displaced by the ship should be more than the weight of the ship.
