 definition here Archimedes Principle Notes



Archimedes principle is

when an object is partially or fully immersed in water, the buoyant force is equals to the weight of the water displaced.

the formula for buoyant force is

Fb = actual weight - apparent weight
Fb = RhoVg

We have been taught by Pn Syarifah on the application of Archimedes Principle in real life.

Submarine

The ship will sink under water when the water is going into ballasts tank of the ship, therefore
the weight of the ship is beyond the Buoyant force. therefore it is under the water.

To make the ship to sail on the water, the ship need to pull out the water from the tank, then the weight of the ship will become less, then the ship can be seen on the water.

then, we are doing exercises in the workbook regarding the archimedes principle.
