- Archimedes Principle: The upward buoyant force that is exerted on a body immersed in a fluid, whether partially or fully submerged, is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces and acts in the upward direction at the centre of mass of the displaced fluid.
- The value of thrust force is given by the Archimedes law which was discovered by Archimedes of Syracuse of Greece. When an object is partially or fully immersed in a liquid displaced by it.
- Archimedes' principle tells us that this loss of weight is equal to the weight of liquid the object displaces. If the object has a volume of V, then it displaces a volume V of the liquid when it is fully submerged. If only a part of the volume is submerged, the object can only displace that much liquid.
- Archimedes Principle Formula: In simple form, the Archimedes law states that the buoyant force on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. Mathematically written as:
Fb = ρ × g × V
Where Fb is the buoyant force, ρ is the density of the fluid, V is the submerged volume, and g is the acceleration due to gravity
EXPLANATION:
- When a body partially and fully emerged in any fluid it experiences an upward force that is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by it and it is called buoyant force.
- Hence option 4 is the correct answer.
