Why does a block of wood held under water rise to the surface when released ?
A body experiences the same buoyant force when it floats or sinks in water.
A body floats in a liquid when its weight becomes equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by its submerged part.
Define buoyant force. Name two factors on which buoyant force depends.
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.
A body will experience minimum upthrust when it is completely immersed in :
The blood pressure reading of a patient is recorded 160/100. Express the lower pressure in SI units.
[Take density of mercury as 13.6 × 103 kgm−3 and the value of ‘g’ as 10 ms−2]
Select the correct option:
The phenomenon due to which a solid experiences upward force when immersed in water is called:
How is thrust different from pressure?
A body will sink if the weight of the body is greater than the buoyant force.
