How can I design an experiment to test bouyancy for my physics EEI?

In summary, the conversation is about ideas for a physics experiment related to buoyancy. The person is looking for suggestions for an extended experimental investigation and is considering making a model of a boat. One suggestion is to look into Archimedes principle and Bernoulli's principle. The person is also advised to design an experiment to answer their proposed questions. A link to a website with tips for success in science fairs is also provided.

This if my first post and I think this is the right place to post this, hope so anyway.

Just wondering if you guys had any ideas for a physics experiment relationg to bouyancy. I have to do a EEI (extended experimental investigation) for physics and so far I don't have too many ideas. I can make a model of a boat or something and cut it out using some weird machine but I would have no idea what to test.

Anyway any ideas would be appreciated

How do bouancy depend on depth below the surface?

Does it change if the liquid flows (lift generated?)?

Ummm I don't get what you are saying

Look up Archimedes principle and Bernoulli's principle...

What I am suggesting is to design an experiment to answer the proposed questions. That is the hypothesis you start out with.
