Answer:
a. Weight of Object in Water = 20 N
b. Up thrust = 20 N
c. Weight of Water Displaced = 20 N
Explanation:
a.
The weight of the object remains same in the water as well. Because, the same force of gravity is acting there as well. Hence,
<u>Weight of Object in Water = 20 N</u>
<u></u>
b.
Since, the object floats on the water. Therefore, according to Archimedes' principle the up thrust force acting on the object must be equal to the weight of object:
Up thrust = Weight of object
<u>Up thrust = 20 N</u>
<u></u>
c.
From Archimedes' Principle, we know that the up thrust or the Buoyant force is equal to the weight of the water displaced by the object. therefore:
Weight of Water Displaced = Up thrust
<u>Weight of Water Displaced = 20 N</u>
