Johan Hawkins · Answer 1

C) 0.59 N

Explanation:

By the Achemides principle we know that the buoyancy force on an object which is immersed in a incompressible fluid at rest is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced. So all we have to do is to find the mass of 60ml.

Density = mass / volume

Mass = density * volume

= 1 g/cm³ * 60 cm³

{ as 1ml=1cm³}

= 60 g

So force equals to,

Force = weight = mass * gravitational acceleration

= 0.06*9.8 = 0.59 N
