Buoyant Forces


     The purpose of this lab is to calculate bouyant forces of objects
submerged in water.
     The first step in the lab was to measure the mass of a metal cylinder,
which was found to be 100g, and then to calculated it's weight, which was .98
newtons.  Then next step was to measure the apparent weight of the cylinder when
it is completely submerged in a bath of water using the formula Wa=ma*g , this
was found to be 88.5grams.  Knowing these two numbers, the bouyant force that
the water places on the object can be calculated using the formula  Fb=W-Wa ,
Wa=.8673n  W=.98n  Fb=.1127n
     Part 2 of this lab consisted of weighing an empty cup, which was 44grams.
And then filling another cup up to a certain point the if any more water was
added, it would spill out of ...This is ONLY a preview of the article. If you would like to view the entire document, you must subscribe to Electronic References. Please register below now!
