Question

As a rock sinks deeper and deeper into water of constant density, what happens to the buoyant force on it? As a rock sinks deeper and deeper into water of constant density, what happens to the buoyant force on it? It increases. It may increase or decrease, depending on the shape of the rock. It may increase or decrease, depending on the weight of the rock. It remains constant. It decreases. g

Answer 1

Answer:

It remains constant

Explanation:

As we know that buoyant force on an object given as

Fb = ρ Vd g

ρ= Density of fluid

Vd=Volume displace by body

g=10 m/s²

Fb =buoyant force

So from above we can say that buoyant force does not depends on the depth. It only depends on the fluid density and volume displace by body.

So when rock gets deeper and deeper the buoyant force will remain constant.

It remains constant
