Question

. Estimate the buoyant force that air exerts on you. (To do this, you can estimate your volume by knowing your weight and by assuming that your weight density is a bit less than that of water.)

Answer 1

`0.886` N buoyant force is exerted by air

Step-by-step explanation:

My weight is
`75` Kg

Weight = mass * gravity

As we know

Buoyant Force is equal to the product of density * acceleration due to gravity and volume of the body

Assuming weight density is a bit less than that of water or equal to water i.e
`997.77` kg/m3

Volume is equal to mass / density

`= 75` Kg * g/
`997.777`

`= 0.0751` * g

Buoyant Force

= Volume * g * density

`= 0.0751 * 9.8 * 1.2041`kg/m3

`= 0.886` N
