AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the equations for buoyancy and air resistance, with a focus on Archimedes' Principle for buoyancy. Participants suggest searching for Stokes force and drag force for air resistance. There is a side debate on the correct spelling of Archimedes' name, highlighting the importance of historical accuracy in scientific terminology. The conversation also touches on the dynamics of the participants' interactions, blending humor with corrections. Overall, the thread combines inquiries about physics with a light-hearted exchange about spelling and historical significance.

hey , first time poster :)

Question is, what is the equation that represents the force of Buoyancy and Air Resistance.

I've had quite a hard time looking around on the internet for these and I need these to do a project (make up project).

Thanks kindly.

Bouyancy force,a.k.a. Archimede's force can easily be constructed once you know his principle.

You can search the internet for Stokes force (viscous force) or drag/aerodynamical force...

It's ARCHIMEDES. I'd prefer if people write down names in their original manner.

MARLON

ps in Greek, you can see his name here :

History, dexter...hmmm

So do I.It was my original manner (sic!) to write down his name.

I think you wanted to type

\displaystyle{A P X I M H \Delta H \Sigma}

,but you changed your mind... :rolleyes:

Not at all, i added the site.

Besides here is another one :

Study the history dexter, i am doing you a favour here.

marlon

edit : besides, i am glad to see you are learning the correct spelling already...Thanks for looking at that site. You see, it's not that bad to be corrected isn't it ? :smile:

marlon and dextercioby: I have seen at least four threads where you guys are going at each other.

It's kind of funny, I can't tell if your good friends or arch enemies.
 
Nah,i think we can't ignore each other (marlon,remember?).:-p

History of Physics is my strength,amigo...

Daniel.
 
it's entertaining :biggrin:

anyway I'll let you get back to the topic... sorry to interupt

Surprise, surprise, i tend to disagree. ArchimedeS is quite improtant in the history of science, isn't he ?

I am also very much into classical music. You won't hear me talk about W A Mozar , though :smile:

Surprise,surprise...Spelling and forces down an incline are not your among your favorite subjects,i guess...

Fred Garvin has given you reference to both subjects... :wink:

:smile: :smile: So is YOUR syntaxis YOUR dexter and your ability to correct false mistakes... :smile: :smile: ahh dexter, i think in the end, i am going to like you :smile:
