Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following statements about buoyancy is true?
  • Step 1: Understand what buoyancy means. Buoyancy is the ability of an object to float in a fluid (like water).
  • Step 2: Know that when an object is placed in a fluid, it pushes some of the fluid out of the way. This is called displacement.
  • Step 3: Realize that the fluid pushes back against the object with a force called the buoyant force.
  • Step 4: Learn that the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the fluid that was displaced by the object.
  • Step 5: Conclude that if an object is submerged in a fluid, the buoyant force acting on it is equal to the weight of the fluid it has pushed out of the way.
