Explore Archimedes' principle and the buoyant force in fluid dynamics. Understand how pressure varies with depth and acts in all directions, leading to the upward net force on submerged objects.

The buoyant force results from the increase in fluid pressure with depth. The magnitude of the buoyant force exerted on an object by a fluid is equal to the weight of fluid displaced by the …

Let's explore the relation between buoyant force and displaced liquid! Created by Vibhor Pandey.

Relate the magnitude of the buoyant force on an object to the weight of the fluid it displaces, and express it in terms of the fluid's density and displaced volume.

So remember, the buoyant force is just equal to the weight of the water displaced and that's just the volume of the water displaced times the density of water times gravity.

And that's why we are interested in knowing what does this buoyant force depend on so that we can predict whether things will float or sink. And that's what Archimedes' principle tells us.

Since both solids have the same mass, their weight will be the same. So we can conclude that the buoyancy force will be the same. However, the buoyancy force will be equal to the product of …

So remember, the buoyant force is just equal to the weight of the water displaced, and that's just the volume of the water displaced, times the density of water, times gravity. Of course, the …
