Question

What might be the relation betweenvolume of water displaced and volume of metallic box?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Yes…it’s according to Archimedes principle which states that if a body is partially or fully immersed in a fluid then upward force (Buoyant force) acting on the body is equal to weight of the fluid displaced.

hence,

Mass of displaced water =(volume of displaced water )x (density of water)

And immersed body will displace volume of water equivalent to its own volume.

So volume of water = volumeof object

Hence Mass of water = volume of object x density of water
