Question

1.) If one could repeat the same experiment in the lab located on the moon (different weight of the measured objects), then would the results be different? If yes, explain how much different. If not, why would the results be the same?

2.) Consider two objetcs that have exactly the same shape and dimensions. The first object has a larger density than the second object. Both objects are completely immersed in water. Is the buoyant force acting on the first object greater than or equal to the bouyant force acting on the second object? Please explain.

Explanation / Answer

1) please specify the experiment.

2) we know, buyont force = weight of the fluid displaced by the immersing object

= rho_fluid*V_object*g

here, both objects have same dimensions.so, both object have same volume.

so, buyont force is same on both objects.

Note : buyont force des not depend on density of immersing object. It depends only on volume of the immersing object.
