2. “ The buoyant force acting on an
object completely submerged
in water equals the weight of
the displaced water “
3.
4. The property of the fluids to apply buoyant
force
UPTHRUST OR BOUYANCY
FORCE
the force acting upward to
reduce the actual weight of
the objectwhen it is under
water
5. The volume of the
body immersed i.e.
volume of the fluid
displaced ,or
density of the fluid
7. Buoyant Force = Weight of fluid
displaced
= mg
= ρVg
(note : F = ma)
(note : ρ = m∕V )
Thus FB= ρ V g
Where ……
FB= Buoyant Force or Upthrust
ρ = Density of fluid
V = Volume of fluid displaced or
the volume of the object that
immersed in the fluid.
8. Buoyant force = weight ⇒ the
object floats and stationary
Buoyant force > weight ⇒ the
object moves up
Buoyant force < weight ⇒ the
object moves down
