3. A rectangular block of volume Vo is placed in a tank of water and sinks to the bottom. Describe the buoyant force acting on this block. What could be a possible density of the block?   a. The buoyant force equals the weight of a volume of water of Vo, 5.00 grams/cm3   b. No buoyant force acts on the block, 0.0500 grams/cm3   c. The buoyant force equals the weight of a volume of water of Vo, 0.450 grams/cm3   d. The buoyant force equals the weight of a volume of water of Vo, 0.100 grams/cm3   e. The buoyant force equals the weight of a volume of water of one-half of Vo, 0.333 grams/cm3

Fluid Pressure

The term fluid pressure is coined as, the measurement of the force per unit area of a given surface of a closed container. It is a branch of physics that helps to study the properties of fluid under various conditions of force.

Gauge Pressure

Pressure is the physical force acting per unit area on a body; the applied force is perpendicular to the surface of the object per unit area. The air around us at sea level exerts a pressure (atmospheric pressure) of about 14.7 psi but this doesn’t seem to bother anyone as the bodily fluids are constantly pushing outwards with the same force but if one swims down into the ocean a few feet below the surface one can notice the difference, there is increased pressure on the eardrum, this is due to an increase in hydrostatic pressure.
