What do you mean by buoyancy?
What happens to the buoyant force as more and more volume of a solid object is immersed in a liquid ? When does the buoyant force become maximum ?
A piece of wood floats on water. The buoyant force on wood will be
Name the S.I. unit of density. How is it related to g Cm-3?
Describe a simple experiment to demonstrate that a liquid enclosed in a vessel exerts pressure in all directions.
- Calculate the height of a water column which will exert on its base the same pressure as the 70 cm column of mercury. Density of mercury is 13.6 g cm-3.
- Will the height of the water column in part (a) change if the cross-section of the water column is made wider?
A simple U tube contains mercury to the same level in both of its arms. If water is poured to a height of 13.6 cm in one arm, how much will be the rise in mercury level in the other arm?
Given : density of mercury = 13.6 x 103 kg m-3 and density of water = 103 kg m-3.
Figure shows the same block of wood floating in three different liquids A, B and C of densities ρ1, ρ2 and ρ3 respectively. Which of the liquid has the highest density? Give a reason for your answer.

Two identical pieces, one of ice (density = 900kg per meter cube) and other wood (density = 300kg per meter cube) float on water.
- Which of the two will have more volume submerged inside water
- Which of two will experience more upthrust due to water.
