5. Theory: Archimedes' Principle: Thebuoyant force on an object equals theweight of the fluid it displaces. Inequation form, Archimedes' principle isFB = Wfl, where FB is the buoyant forceand wfi is the weight of the fluid.Problem: Calculate the buoyant force on10000 metric tons or 1.0 x 107 kg of solidsteel completely submerged in water,and compare this with the steel's weight.Given, steel's density is 7.8 x 10³ kg/m³.(b) What is the maximum buoyant forcethat water could exert on this same steelif it were shaped into a boat that coulddisplace 1.0 x 105 cubic met water? (thisis a solved problem in the textbook, seeChapter 11.7 Archimedes' Principle)

We will first write an expression for buoyant force. Then we will substitute the values of given…
