SUBmerged means that the entire thing is completely UNDER the fluid surface.
IMmersed means that the thing has some part IN the fluid ... that is the part whose Volume displaces the fluid, which has buoyant force applied to it.
(So, "completely immersed" is not redundant, but it means "submerged")

Is a body totally submerged in a liquid displaces a volume of water less than its volume?
A body which is totally submerged in a liquid displaces a volume of water equal to the volume of the body.
Why does a spring balance show less weight of a body when the body is immersed in water?
Spring balance shows remarkably less weight of yours, when immersed in the water. Your weight will be shown less as much the weight of water you have displaced.
How will you measure volume of a body lighter than water?
In order to measure volume, one normally sees how much water it displaces. If the body floats, the water displaced will be equal to the weight of the body, not the volume. It will be necessary to force the body down so that it is totally submerged. If there is an anchor and chain below the surface, the water displaced when the body is attached and submerged will have the same volume as the body.
A girl is floating in a freshwater lake with her head just above the water If she weighs 510 N what is the volume of the submerged part of her body?
a girl is floating in a freshwater lake with her head just over the water.f she weights 600 N. What is the volume of the submerged part of her body?
Does the body weigh more immersed in air than your true weight?
no. if on the ground or in air, gravity is still working on you at 9.8m/s or 32ft/s.
What is the difference between submerged body and immersed body?
Immersed means partially in water and submerged means completely covered.
Why and how does a body lose weight when it is immersed in water?
The body does not lose weight. However it is buoyed up equal to the weight of the amount of water that is displaced by the submerged parts of the body.
What is the Archimedes princilple?
Archimedes' principle indicates that the upward buoyant force that is exerted on a body immersed in a fluid, whether fully or partially submerged, is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces.
What is the relationship between a buoyant object and the water it displaces?
Archimedes' principle states that the upward buoyant force that is exerted on a body immersed in a fluid, whether fully or partially submerged, is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces and acts in the upward direction at the center of mass of the displaced fluid.
What is the upward force exerted on a body by that into which it is immersed?
When a body is immersed in water , due to pressure difference between upper surface and lower surface of the body an unbalanced upward force acts on a body . This unbalanced upward force is called Buoyancy force
Conclusion of Archimedes principle in lab?
The conclusion of the Archimedes principle is simply that the upward buoyant force that is experienced by a body immersed in a fluid, is equivalent to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces. This allows the volume of an object to be measured by measuring the volume of liquid it displaces after submerging. For any immersed object, the volume of the submerged portions equals the volume of fluid it displaces.
Does body lose mass when immersed in water?
Not until it has been immersed for such a long time that it begins to dissolve(weeks).
When a body is immersed in a liquid?
... the telephone usually rings.
Is a body totally submerged in a liquid displaces a volume of water less than its volume?
A body which is totally submerged in a liquid displaces a volume of water equal to the volume of the body.
What are factors affecting upthrust?
upthrust=buoyant force=weight of the body immersed in d liquid so gravity and mass is a cause of upthrust as weight of a body=mass* gravity
How do you distinguish between ulnar-radius and fibula-tibia?
A person can distinguish between the ulnar-radius and the fibula-tibia by looking their placement within the body. The ulnar-radius is found in the forearm, while the fibula-tibia is found in the shin.
When a body is immersed in liquid the force acting on it are?
buoyancy and its weight downward
