What is the bouyancy of a 55 gallon drum?
Approximately 458 pounds.
What is the center of buoyancy?
The center of buoyancy is the center of volume of displaced water of the hull (of a vessel). Gravity pulls down on a floating object. The fluid it is floating on pushes it up and it floats (assuming it is bouyant). Both gravity and bouyancy (the two forces at work) will have an effective center. The center of gravity is not required to be lower than the center of bouyancy and in general most ship's center of gravity is above the center of bouyancy. The ship will heel until the Metacenter (which is a function of the actual Waterplane area) is at or above the center of gravity. It might be advantageous to look at the center of gravity with respect to the center of bouyancy in ship hull stability and thereby get a better grasp of the particulars. Use the link below to our friends at Wikipedia and look at some diagrams concerning the stability of ships in terms of where the centers of bouyancy and gravity are in relation to each other.
What will happens to the time period of simple pendulum if bob of the pendulum is completely immersed in water Explain?
Essentially , a simple pendulum is ignorant of air resistance, its more a tool to calculate gravitational acceleration, immersing it in liquid would introduce a drag force and bouyancy on the bob which alters the net force on the bob (essentially reducing the gravity)
What does the aumred mean?
Do you mean ''What does the AUM Mantra mean?''
Does mean mean average?
No, but sometimes "average" means "mean" - when it doesn't mean median, geometric mean, or something else entirely.
What is an example of bouyancy?
The bouyancy of of a floating object is affected by ballast.
What is the definition of bouyancy?
Bouyancy determines whether an object sinks or floats.
What forces are at work on water?
bouyancy
Why dosent a ship sink?
The bouyancy of the vessel keeps it afloat. As long as the force of bouyancy is larger then the mass of the ship it will stay afloat.
What force makes a whale surface?
bouyancy
Was it bouyancy that made the titanic sink?
An iceburg

How does salt effect bouyancy?
because is a smart
Formula for bouyancy?
same as archimedes' principle
How does bouyancy affect boats?
because boaties can floatie
What are the observable physical properties of matter?
