Question

The buoyant force on an object in a fluid is equal to the weight of the _____. fluid in the container fluid surrounding the object fluid displaced by the object

Answer 1

The buoyant force on an object in a fluid is equal to the weight of the DISPLACED. fluid in the container fluid surrounding the object fluid displaced by the object

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that buoyancy force is given by

`F_b = \rho V g`

here we know that

`\rho` = density of fluid

V = volume submerged in the fluid

so here we will say that the buoyancy force is the force exerted by liquid equal to weight of the liquid displaced by the object
