Q
Q: What is the principle behind Archimedes' principle?
Solution:
Archimedes' principle states that a body submerged in a fluid experiences a buoyant force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that Archimedes' principle is about objects in fluids (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: The weight of the fluid that is pushed out (displaced) is important. It tells us how much force is acting on the object.
Step 4: The object feels a force pushing it up, called 'buoyant force.'
Step 5: Archimedes' principle says that this buoyant force is equal to the weight of the fluid that was displaced by the object.
