Which of the following will sink or float on water? (Density of water = 1 g Cm-3)
body D having density 0.85 g m-3

उत्तर
Density of water = 1 g Cm-3
Density of body D = 0.85 g m-3 < 1.0 g Cm-3
Density of body D is less than the density of water hence body D will FLOAT on water

What is meant by the term ‘buoyancy’ ?
The diagram given below show a body floating in three different liquids. A, B and C at different levels.
(a) In which liquid does the body experience the greatest buoyant force?
(b) Which liquid has the least density?
(c) Which liquid has the highest density?
How does the pressure exerted by thrust depend on the area of surface on which it acts? Explain with a suitable example.
Explain why a gas bubble released at the bottom of a lake grows in size as it rises to the surface of the lake.
The S.I. unit of pressure is :
Prove that the loss in weight of a body when immersed wholly or partially in a liquid is equal to the buoyant force (or upthrust) and this loss is because of the difference in pressure exerted by liquid on the upper and lower surfaces of the submerged part of body.
A block of wood is floating on water with its dimensions 50 cm x 50 cm x 50 cm inside water. Calculate the buoyant force acting on the block. Take g = 9.8 N kg-1.
A homogeneous block floats on water (a) partly immersed (b) completely immersed. In each case state the position of centre of buoyancy B with respect to the centre of gravity G of the block.
Complete the analogy.
