  • Have you ever wondered why you float in water? This video delves into the fascinating science behind buoyancy, the upward force that allows objects to float in a fluid. You’ll learn about the factors contributing to buoyancy, including water pressure and density, and how the buoyant force is calculated. We’ll also discuss how buoyancy is related to the weight of an object and the amount of fluid it displaces. Whether you’re a science enthusiast or just curious about why you don’t sink in the pool, this video will give you a clear understanding of the principles of buoyancy. #buoyancy #physics #scienceexplained #floating #waterpressure #fluidmechanics #weight #density #upwardforce #displacedfluid #swimming #poolscience #educational #sciencefacts #STEMeducation #learning #curiosity #funfacts #sciencevideos #CZcamsScience #science101

    Ig I go against the laws of physics, because I simply sink no matter what

      Therefore ur weight is more than the buoyant force acting upwards

      It's because you probably take water in your mouth or your nose which increase the density of your lungs and therefore you sink

    What if there is no liquid at the bottom of the object, just on sides - it sits on the bottom of the pool, will it still be effected by boyancy force the same way?

    but is it the same with a human body and a wooden crate? since we are mostly made of water !?🤔 just thinking out loud...

      I like that you’re thinking about it! Always feel free to ask questions, those of us in these types of fields love to hear people take an interest. Just as food for thought, the average human body averages a density of around 985 kg/m^3 and with a full breath around 945kg/m^3. Fresh water is 1,000kg/m^3. So, on average, because your body weighs less than the water you displace you will float. If the wooden crate is full of air it likely weighs less per unit volume than you and will also float in the same water, the difference is that since you are very close to the same density
      someone could easily sink you with just a little force. The crate will be much more difficult to sink.

    Why buoyance force is equal to weight of displaces water

    • @adhyank.6649
      @adhyank.6649 Před 5 měsíci +1

      The reason is that the fluid, having a higher density, contains more mass and hence more weight in the same volume. The buoyant force, which equals the weight of the fluid displaced, is thus greater than the weight of the object. Likewise, an object denser than the fluid will sink

  • @v_gigaharz

    Sir, which object's density is used in this equation? Displaced fluid or the buoyant object?

    • @hiranjana7474
      @hiranjana7474 Před 8 měsíci +1

      Hi can u help me with one doubt
      An object sinks when its W is more than the buoyant force right but also another thing I know is that when the density of the object is more than the density of the liquid it also sinks
      So what's the difference between these 2 statements
      They both are true right

      You are negatively boyant. It could mean that you have heavy bones, hence you don’t naturally float.
