Question

Which of the following is the incorrect statement about pressure in
liquids?
a. When an object is immersed in a liquid, the liquid exerts a net upward
force on the object.
b. This upward force determines whether an object will float or sink in a
liquid.
c. If the upward force exceeds the weight of the object, the object floats.
d. If the weight of the object is less than the upward force, the object sinks.

Answer 1

How would using a fluid of a higher density alter the apparent weight of an object that is fully submerged?

If an object's average density is less than that of the surrounding fluid, it will float. The reason is that the fluid, having a higher density, contains more mass and hence more weight in the same volume. The buoyant force, which equals the weight of the fluid displaced, is thus greater than the weight of the object
