a canoe displaces 100 L of water weighs 9.8 NL what is the bouyant force on the canoe

3 answers

Vw = 100L * 1000cm^3/L=100,000cm^3=Vol. of water displaced.
Dw = 0.001kg/cm^3. = Density of water.

The Buoyant force(Fb) = the wt. of the water displaced:
Fb = Vw * Dw
Fb=100000cm^3 * 0.001kg/cm^3 * 9.8N/kg=
980 N.
980
A canoe displaces 100 L of water. Water weighs 9.8 N/L. What is the buoyant force on the canoe?
