Laboratory Manual for Physics 2750 2022-23 ARCHIMEDES' PRINCIPLE LAB: DATA AND ANALYSIS SECTION Part I: Find the density of a floating object 1. A block of unknown density is floating In a fluid. The block has a height H, mass m, and the height of the block below the water llne is h1 , as shown below. Consider that the block has a bottom area A. Using the picture on the right below , draw and label all the forces acting on the block. 2. Write Newton's second law for the block. This is equation 1. b - V\"\j (,, ~b v \J3 3. Write the equation that allows you to calculate the buoyant force acting on an object. Write the volume of the fluid displaced using the bottom area of the block and the height of the submerged part of the block. Replace this in the equation for the buoyant force. This is equation 2. v'Y\8 :: Vo~ (4-h~) 4. Write the equation that allows you to calculate the mass of the block as a function of its volume and density . Then write the volume using its bottom area A and height H. Replace in the equation for the mass m. This is equation 3. 5. Using equation 1, 2, and 3, find the density of the block as a function of the height of the block, fluid density , height of block below the water surface, and any other constants (if any). This is equation 4. Vn ( \\ )8:: Vf lA · \"1~1, ?b -: \J ~ l~') 63

Place the block in the water. Use the ruler on the block to measure the submerged depth of the block , ht, while the block is floating in equilibrium. Record your measurement in the table. Repeat for each block. 8. Using equation 4 and the measurements taken, calculate the density of each block. Remember that the density of water is 1000 kg/m 3 Fill out the results in the table below.

Draw all the forces acting on the pendant on the figure provided. 4. What is the force that the balance reads when the pendant Is fully submerged? This is equation 2. pu d an t l mm tned ht •• ftr 5. Write the equation that allows you to calculate the buoyant force on the pendant from Archimedes principle. This is equation 3. 6. What you know are the forces read by the balance, and the density of the fluid. Combine equations 1- 3 to find an equation that will allow you to calculate the volume of the pendant as a function of the forces read by the balance, fluid density, and any other constants (if any). This is equation 4. \J -: ~81- V\'\8 L ?~3 65

With the pendant still suspended from the balance, hold up a beaker with water such that the pendant is fully immersed. The pendant should not touch the sides or the bottom of the beaker. Record the mass of the pendant when fully submerged in the table and then calculate the force read by the scale. The mass read is called "apparent mass" and the force read represents the force of gravity for the "apparent mass". 9. Calculate the volume of the pendant using equation 4 and the fact that the density of water is 1000 kg/m 3 Record it in the table. 10. Calculate the density of the pendant using the definition of density and record it in the table. .... 3,.
