Vs = pi*r^2 * h = 3.14*10^2*25 = 7850 cm*3 = Vol. submerged = Vol. of water displaced.
Fb = 7850cm^3 * 1g/cm^3 = 7850 g.
In the figure, the radius of the submerged cylinder is 10 cm. The height is 25 cm. The cylinder is made of Aluminum whose density is 2.7g/cm3 the water density is 1g/cm3
What is the buoyant force on the cylinder?
Repeat the calculation if the object were inside Glycerin ( density: 1.26g/cm3)
