Description and presentation:

ARCHIMEDES PRICIPLE
Background:

More than two thousand years ago, the Greek scientist, Archimedes noticed that there is an upward force which acts on an object
kept inside a liquid. As a result an apparent loss of weight is observed in the object. This upward force acting on the object is called
the upthrust of the liquid. Then Archimedes explain Archimedes principle.

Defination:

When an object is totally or partially immersed in a liquid, an upthrust

acts on it equal to the weight of the liquid it displaces.

Examples:

 An air filled balloon immediately shoots up to the surface when released under water.

 The same would happen if a piece of wood is released under water. We might have noticed that a mug filled with water feels
light under water but feels heavy as soon as we take it out of water.

Explaination:

Consider a solid cylinder of cross-sectional area A and height h immersed in a liquid. Let h1 and h2 be the depths of the top and
bottom faces of the cylinder respectively from the surface of the liquid.

Then

If P1 2 and P are the liquid pressures at depths h1 and h respectively and ρ is its density, then according to 2 equation .
Let the force is exerted at the cylinder top by the liquid due to pressure P1 and the force F2 is exerted at the bottom of the cylinder
by the liquid due to P2 .

F1 and F2 are acting on the opposite faces of the cylinder. Therefore, the net force F will be F2 - F1 in the direction of F . This net
force F on the cylinder is called the upthrust of the liquid.

Result:

Equation (7.6) shows that an upthurst acts on the body immersed in a liquid and is equal to the weight of liquid displaced, which is
Archimedes principle.
