1. The tendency or ability of an object to float.
Buoyancy
The tendency or ability of an object to float.

2. Buoyancy
The pressure on the bottom of a submerged object is greater than the pressure on the top. The result is a net force in the upward direction.

3. Buoyant Force
The upward force exerted by a fluid on a submerged or floating object.

4. Buoyancy
The buoyant force works opposite the weight of an object.

5. Density and buoyancy: An object that has a greater density than the fluid it is in, will sink. If its density is less than the fluid it will float.

6. To find the volume of the prism use the formula V = lwh
3cm
To find the volume of the prism use the formula
V = lwh
where V is volume, l is length, w is width, and h is height h w l
V = lwh
V = (3)(3)(3)
V = 27 cm^3

7. A solid block of steel sinks in water
A solid block of steel sinks in water. A steel ship with the same mass floats on the surface.

8. Density
Changes in density cause a submarine to dive, rise, or float. This is called a Ballast Tank

9. Density
Changes in density cause a submarine to dive, rise, or float.

10. Density
Changes in density cause a submarine to dive, rise, or float.
