In this experiment, you are going to measure the buoyant force on an aluminum block partially immersed in a liquid. The dimensions of the block is/xw *Has shown in the figure. If the depth of the block immersed in the liquid is d what is the volume of the block immersed in liquid? H V Archimedes' principle says that the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces. If the density of the liquid is pL, what is mass of the liquid displaced by the block? What is the buoyant force exerted on the block by the liquid? F,- When the block experiences a buoyant force exerted by the water, the block exerts a force on water in equal magnitude but in opposite direction as the buoyant force. If we put the bcaker with water on a scale, we can measure the mass of beaker+water, let's call it AMun. When a block is immersed in the water, the scale will read the Muer, plus the buoyant force F. That is, the reading on the scale will be M-M+ F Since F, is proportional to the volume of the block immersed in water, the scale reading will also be proportional to the volume of the block immersed in water. Express Min terms of V, PL and AMieter e In this lab, you will be asked to calculate the density of water using the slope of a line. What is the standard equation for a straight line? アー Which is for the intercept? Which letter represents the slope?
