Question

The weight of an object in air is W air, while its weight when fully immersed in a liquid is W liquid. The weight of the liquid displaced by the object is W displaces liquid. Write down the relationship between:
a)buoyancy force, w air and w liquid
b)Fb and W displaced liquid

Answer 1

Archimedes principle also states that: “When a body is immersed in a liquid, an upward thrust, equal to the weight of the liquid displaced, acts on it.” Thus, when asolid is fully immersed in a liquid, it loses weight which is equal to the weight of the liquid it displaces.
