How Buoyancy force on an object is related to the weight of liquid it displaces?

1 answer:

4 0

The buoyancy force (B) is equal to the weight (W) of the fluid that a body in that fluid displaces. Fluid pressure increases with depth because of the (gravitational) weight of the fluid above. This increasing pressure applies a force on a submerged object that increases with depth. The result is buoyancy

Answer:

Zero

Explanation:

The work done by a force on an object is given by:

$W=Fd cos \theta$

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement of the object

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement of the object

In this situation, the force is the force of gravity acting on the satellite. This force always points towards the centre of the trajectory, so it is always perpendicular to the direction of motion of the satellite (since the orbit is circular), so $\theta=90^{\circ}$ and $cos \theta =0$ . Therefore, the work done by gravity is also zero.
