Why is Archimedes' principle important?
Archimedes contributed the theory of buoyancy, which is significant because it allows us to measure an object's weight by its displacement in water, density, displacement, and the buoyancy of the liquid in which the object is acting.
Is the Archimedes principle suitable for used in determining all materials density. Explain?
No. It would inappropriate for anything that is already a liquid who's volume could be measured directly. Using displacement in this case would be an unnecessary complication.It would also be inappropriate for anything that was water soluble as displacement would not be an accurate measurement of volume.
Pascal's principle explains the relationship between density and buoyancy?
false >Archimedes' principle does<
Is Archimedes principle suitable for use in determining all material density?
It is difficult to apply Archimedes principle to gasses especially those lighter than air.
Who discover density?
The principle of density was discovered by Archimedes. To calculate density, we use the equation Density = mass/volume.
The relationship between what two things does archimedes's principle explain?
buoyancy and density :D
How does Archimedes principle relate to density?
Archimedes principal states: 'An object immersed in a liquid will experience a buoyancy force equal to the mass of the liquid displaced by the object.' This can determine the density of any object.
What formula is used in Archimedes' principle?
Archimedes principle - weight of the liquid displaced by the object= buoyant force weight=mass x acceleration due to gravity =volume x density x acceleration due to gravity
What the equipment that can be used to measure density of a material of the Archimedes principle.?
A mass balance and a measuring jug full of a liquid.
What is the formula for Archimedes' Principle?
Density=mass x volume Buoyancy= (density of object - density of fluid) x (volume of displaced fluid)
Does Archimedes' principle state that the buoyant force on an object is equal to the density of the fluid it displaces?
No... It does nt..!! It is practically impossible to equate density n buoyant force...
How can you decide if an object will float or sink?
It's all about density; figure out the density of the liquid and the density of the object. If the object is less dense than the liquid, it will float. It's a matter of buoyancy and Archimedes' principle.
