Question

A toy floats in a swimming pool. The buoyant force exerted on the toy depends on the volume ofa. none of these choices.b. all the water in the pool.c. the toy under water.d. the pool.

Answer 1

Answer:c

Explanation:

The buoyancy force on toy depends upon the volume of toy under pool water.

According to Archimedes principle buoyant force on a floating body depends upon the weight of displaced liquid by object.

Buoyancy force is given by

$F_b=\rho _f\times V\times g$

where $\rho _f$=density of fluid

V=volume of object under water

g=acceleration due to gravity
