Surname 1 Name: Instructor: Course: Date: Short Physic Lab Assignments A. Buoyancy Lab Report 1. Introduction/Thesis Archimedes’ Principle states that when a body partially or wholly immersed in a fluid (in this case, in water), the body shall experience a force of buoyance that is equal to the displaced fluid weight. This experiment is meant to explore the meaning of Archimedes principle by exercising its use in various situations. Moreover, problem solving through Archimedes’ Principle is puzzling. An equation is created from the word of the principle. It is worth noting that the principle of Archimedes involves objects placed on a vertical equilibrium. The ΣFy = 0. 2. Background Researchers have indicated that buoyant force is a portion of weight that is not supposed to be supported by a scale because of the presence of a new force. It is postulated that this force is upward and is caused by the pressure on the lower side of the object. This lab experiment is meant to confirm this research. 3. Methodology Surname 2 The apparatus is arranged as indicated from the figure below (at the data section). The hanged scale is raised so as to zoom it in and the graduated cylinder is dragged and released above tank so as to empty it. 4. Data 5. Analysis According to the above data, the volume of displaced water is equal to the volume of the inserted block. Since the density of water is 1000 kg/m3, then the mass of displaced water= volume x density. The weight of displa ...
