→ What are the conditions of equilibrium for a floating body ?


Ans. → The following are the conditions for equilibrium for a floating body :


↪The weight of the liquid displaced by the immersed part must be equal to the weight of the body .


↪The centre of gravity and the centre of buoyancy of the body should be along the same vertical line .


↪The centre of gravity lies vertically below the centre of buoyancy ( stable equilibrium ) and if centre of gravity lies Above the centre of buoyancy ( unstable equilibrium ).

Answer 2

The conditions of equilibrium for a floating body are:

Explanation for the answer:

• The following are the conditions for equilibrium for a floating body:
• The weight of the liquid displaced by the immersed part must be equal or same to the weight of the body.
• The centre of gravity and the centre of buoyancy of the body should be along the same vertical line.
• The centre of the gravity lies vertically below the centre of buoyancy and if the centre of the gravity lies vertically above the centre of buoyancy.
