Physics · Archimedes Principle and Buoyancy
During a laboratory experiment, the following observations were recorded using a spring balance when two objects, A and B, were immersed in water: • Object A: Weight in Air = 92 N, Weight of Liquid Displaced = 16 N • Object B: Weight in Water = 70 N, Buoyant Force acting on body = 10 N Let X be the Weight of Object A in Water, Y be the Buoyant Force on Object A, Q be the Weight of Object B in Air, and Z be the Weight of Liquid Displaced by Object B. According to Archimedes' principle, which of the following combinations is correct?
- 1X = 76 N, Y = 16 N, Z = 80 N, Q = 10 N
- 2X = 76 N, Y = 16 N, Z = 10 N, Q = 80 N✓
- 3X = 108 N, Y = 16 N, Z = 80 N, Q = 80 N
- 4X = 108 N, Y = 108 N, Z = 10 N, Q = 80 N
Correct answer
X = 76 N, Y = 16 N, Z = 10 N, Q = 80 N
