fixed image problem. I'll try that later on.jbriggs444 said:
Your answers to a and b look fine, but I cannot follow your working in c. When you post a typed version of that, please explain your reasoning.ehf said:
well c is my problem to me. should i take account the length difference only or is there sth more?haruspex said:
Ok, but I cannot decipher your working. Please repost as typed equations, with some explanation of your reasoning.ehf said:
A cylinder with buoyancy refers to a cylindrical object that has the ability to float or rise in a fluid due to the upward force of buoyancy.
The buoyancy of a cylinder is based on Archimedes' principle, which states that the upward buoyant force on an object submerged in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid that the object displaces. In other words, the weight of the water that the cylinder pushes out of the way is equal to the force that pushes the cylinder up.
The buoyancy of a cylinder is affected by its volume, density, and the density of the fluid it is submerged in. A larger volume and lower density will result in greater buoyancy, while a higher density will result in less buoyancy.
Yes, depending on its density and the density of the fluid it is submerged in, a cylinder can either sink or float. If the density of the cylinder is greater than the density of the fluid, it will sink. If the density of the cylinder is less than the density of the fluid, it will float.
The buoyancy of a cylinder can be calculated using the formula Fb = ρVg, where Fb is the buoyant force, ρ is the density of the fluid, V is the volume of the cylinder, and g is the acceleration due to gravity. This formula can also be rearranged to solve for the volume of the cylinder, given the buoyant force and density of the fluid.
