Based on Archimedes' principle, we know that if an object displaces a given weight of water, then the object is being buoyed up

by an equal amount of force.

True. If the amount displaced is more than the mass, it floats. If the amount is less than the mass, it will sink.

Answer:

The answer is True.

Explanation:

According to the Archimedes' principle, the buoyant force is equal to the submerged volume multiplied by the density of the displaced liquid; This happens because when the body is submerged, the fluid will exert an equal and opposite direction force, due to the change in pressure.

A former student of mechanics wishes to weigh himself but has access only to a scale a with capacity limited to 120 lbs and a sm
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The correct weight of the former student = 116 lbf

Explanation:

To solve the question, we list out the known variables as follows

Capacity of the scale = 120 lbs

Capacity of the spring dynamometer = 20 lbs

Reading on the scale = 100lb

Reading on the spring dynamometer= 16 lb

at equilibrium, sum of forces = 0

Therefore weight of former student = reaction forces of the scale + the reaction force of the spring dynamometer = 100lb + 16 lb = 116 lb

The correct weight = 116lb weight or 52.62 kg

Converting to weight which is a force = mass * acceleration = 52.62 kg * 9.81 m/s² =

516.2 N = 116 lbf
