Yes. Buoyancy force = weight of liquid displaced.If an object is less dense than the liquid, it floats. In this case no liquid is displaced. If the object is more dense than th4 liquid, it will sink displacing some liquid. the displaced liquid weight is the buoyancy force.

How does the amount of salt added to the water affect buoyancy?

Adding salt to water increases the density of the water, which in turn increases the buoyant force acting on objects placed in the water. This increased buoyant force can make objects more buoyant and help them float more easily.


What happens to the buoyant force when the amount of space an object takes up underwater is increased?

If the mass of an object remains constant, and the amount of space underwater it takes up (it displacement) increases, the buoyant force on the object will increase. The object will rise until it regains equilibrium, when it displaces the same mass of water as its own mass.

Describe density Gradient Column?

A density gradient column is a laboratory tool used to separate biological molecules or particles based on their buoyant density. It consists of a tube filled with a gradient of solutions of varying densities, typically sucrose or cesium chloride. When a sample is layered on top and centrifuged, the molecules or particles migrate to their position in the gradient based on their buoyant density, allowing for separation.


The term for something that can move or rest on the surface of a fluid because of its lower density.?

The term is "buoyant." Buoyant objects are able to float on the surface of a fluid, such as water, due to displacing an amount of fluid equal to their weight.


How does the amount of buoyant force exerted by water vary with the volume of submerged solid?

The amount of buoyant force is equal to the weight of the displaced water. The VOLUME of the displaced water is equal to the part of the solid that is submerged - thus, the buoyant force is equal to this volume, times the density of the water.


What happens to the density of a given substance if you increase the amount of the substance that you have?

Nothing happens if the volume is also allowed to increase.


What would happen to density if the amount of sample increased?

If the amount of sample increased while the volume remained the same, the density would increase since the mass would be higher with the same volume. Density is calculated as mass divided by volume, so an increase in mass while keeping volume constant would result in higher density.


Does a buoyant force of an object depend more on the objects mass than its surface area?

No, the buoyant force on an object depends on its volume and density compared to the fluid it is in, not mass or surface area. Objects displace an amount of fluid equal to their volume, causing an upward buoyant force that is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced.


An object with a mass of 4.6 kilograms and a volume of 0.0025 cubic meters is submerged in water. What is the buoyant force on the object?

The buoyant force is equal to the amount of water displaced. Multiply the volume of the object by the density of water - then convert that to a force (at about 9.8 newton/kilogram).


What happens to the density of a given substance if you increase the amount of substance that you have?

The density of a substance remains constant regardless of the amount of the substance. Density is an intrinsic property of a material and is determined by its mass and volume. Increasing the amount of substance will only change the mass and volume proportionally, thus keeping the density constant.
