How is buoyant force related to floating and sinking?
1 Answer
buoyant force is an upward force by the fluid applied on an object immersed in it.
Explanation:
The buoyant force on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.
If the buoyant force is = to the object's weight then the object will float.
If the buoyant force is < the object's weight then the object will sink.
the length of the arrow represents the amount of force
longer means larger force
