Downward force acting on the ball is 19.6N
Net force acting on the ball is 1960V N
<u>Explanation:</u>
<u />
Given:
Mass of the ball, m = 2kg
Density of ball, σ = 800 kg/m³
Density of water, ρ = 1000 kg/m³
Downward force acting by the ball in the vessel = mg
where, g = 9.8m/s²
F = 2 X 9.8
F = 19.6N
Net force acting on the ball:
Fnet = (ρ - σ) Vg
where,
V is the volume of water
Fnet = (1000 - 800) V X 9.8
Fnet = 1960V N
If the volume is known, then substitute the value of V to find the net force.
Thus, Downward force acting on the ball is 19.6N
Net force acting on the ball is 1960V N
