Example of buoyancy using actual numbers?
I'm curious about buoyancy. Can you give me an example of buoyancy using actual numbers?
Sure! Let's say you have a cube of wood that is 10cm by 10cm by 10cm in size, and it has a density of 0.6 g/cm³. The weight of the wood is 6 grams. Now, if you put the wood in water, it will displace 1000 cubic centimeters of water, which has a weight of 1000 grams. Since the weight of the wood is less than the weight of the water displaced, the wood will float.
