1) The document discusses buoyant force and Archimedes' principle, explaining that the buoyant force on an object equals the weight of the fluid it displaces. 2) It provides examples of calculating the buoyant force on a ball of clay and a basin-like clay object submerged in water. 3) The conclusions are that an object sinks if its weight is greater than the buoyant force, and it floats if its weight is less than the buoyant force.

4. TITANIC Length over-all: 882.5 ft Gross tonnage: 46, 329 tons Net tonnage: 24, 900 tons Depth: 59.5 ft

5. F 2 P A = F A /A P B = F B /A P 1 = F 1 /A F A F 1 P 2 = F 2 /A F B

6. F A = F B Horizontal Forces Thus,  F x =F A + (-F B ) =0 Vertical Forces P 1  P 2 Then, F 1  F 2

7. Thu s,  F y =F 1 + (-F 2 ) =0 F 1 + (-F 2 ) =F B F B = F 1 - F 2 OR BUOYANT FORCE “ The Net Upward Force ex erted by a fluid on a submerged or immersed object.”

8. F B = P 1 A - P 2 A = ( P 1 – P 2 ) A F B = P 1 A - P 2 A F B = F 1 - F 2 F B = P 1 A - P 2 A OR F B = ( P 1 – P 2 ) A

9. Note : The difference in pressure at two different elevations in a fluid is P 1 - P 2 =  g ( y 2 – y 1 ) F B = ( P 1 – P 2 )A

10. By substitution F B = (P 1 – P 2 )A F B =  g(y 2 – y 1 ) A V block = (y 2 – y 1 )A = V fluid displaced Thus, F B =  g(y 2 – y 1 )A F B =  fluid gV fluid

11. F B =  fluid gV fluid F B = m fluid g displaced fluid F B = W

12. F B = W displaced fluid ARCHIMEDES’ PRINCIPLE “ An immersed object is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid it displaces.”

13. ARCHIMEDES’ PRINCIPLE F B = W in air – W in water

14. PROBLEM SOLVING ACTIVITY MATERIALS: clay graduated cylinder Electronic weighing scale beaker Calculator basin

15. PROBLEM SOLVING ACTIVITY TASK 1 : Determine the buoyant force on ball of clay submerged in water. TASK 2 : Determine the buoyant force on basin-like clay immersed in water.

16. BALL OF CLAY BASIN-LIKE CLAY *Weight of ball of clay: W = mg *Weight of the displaced fluid m=  V W = mg *Weight of basin-like clay: W = mg *Weight of the displaced fluid m=  V W = mg BUOYANT FORCE = Weight of displaced fluid

17. CONCLUSIONS If the weight of an object is greater than the weight of the displaced fluid or BUOYANT FORCE , object sinks in the fluid. If the weight of an object is less than the weight of the displaced fluid or BUOYANT FORCE , object floats in the fluid.
