High School Do the Equations for Apparent Weight and Buoyant Force Contradict Each Other?
1) My teacher says that the apparent weight of an object in water (floating,sunken,submerged etc) is equal to it's actual weight-buoyant force acting on it. That is, wt (ap)=wt (ac)- F(b) Where wt (ap) = apparent weight, weight (ac)= actual weight. And f (b) = buoyant force 2) But..., if an... -

What does the buoyant force depend on?
What i interpret from this;my understanding of buoyant force (please correct me if I'm wrong. ) Take for example the sea The water below will provide some force to support the weight of the water above it. When some object is put in water ( for this case, let's consider it is denser than...- Metalbob
