Pressure as a function of depth
Pressure only depends on the depth; at a given depth the pressure is the same.
Ph =Patm + ρWateρhg

Forces on a Small Box of Water
h
Δy
Consider again a small imaginary cubic box at depth h
We argued last time that in static fluids, the net force on the box must be zero.
Again we conclude that the side forces all cancel and only the top and bottom forces are left.
Fnet = Ftop + Fbottom = 0Using our depth formula we can find thatFnet =−ρWateρg(h−Δy)A+ ρWateρghA−mWateρg=0
ρWatergΔyA = mWatergThe pressure difference between top and bottom is just the weight of the water in the box

Forces on a Small Box of Gold
h
Δy
Now suppose the cubic box is a block of gold at depth h
The fluid outside the block is the undisturbed, so the pressures are not changed. The net force however is no longer necessarily zero!!!
Again we conclude that the side forces all cancel and only the top and bottom forces are left.
Fnet = Ftop + Fbottom Using our depth formula we can find thatFnet =−ρWateρg(h−Δy)A+ ρWateρghA−m Goldg
ρWatergΔyA = mWatergThe pressure difference between top and bottom is just the weight of the water in the box

Buoyant Force
h
Δy
So we conclude that the net force is
The fluid exerts an upward force of mwaterg on the gold cube. This is known as the buoyant force.
Fnet =ρWateρgΔyA−m Goldg=m wateρg−m Goldg
FBuoyancy =ρFluidgΔyA=m Fluidg
You can show that this is true for any shape volume V!
For some general fluid, we can write
FBuoyancy =ρFluidgV =m Fluidg

Archimedes Principle
A solid body, either partially or totally submerged in a fluid, will experience an upward buoyant force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid.
FBuoyancy =ρFluidgV =m Fluidg
Let’s check with a demonstration!

Two identical bricks are held under water in a bucket. One of the bricks is lower in the bucket than the other. The upward buoyant force on the lower brick is…..
Fbuoy =m fluidg=ρ fluidV g

The weight of displaced fluid does not depend on depth

A solid piece of plastic of volume V and density ρplastic would ordinarily float in water, but it is held under water by a string tied to the bottom of bucket as shown. (The density of water is ρwater.)
What is the buoyant force on the plastic?
A) Zero B) ρplastic V C) ρwater V D) ρwater V g E) ρplastic V g

Motion of Submerged objects
When will an object sink or float?
Object will rise: Fbuoy > Fg (mfluid > mobject)
Object will sink: Fbuoy < Fg (mfluid < mobject)
Object will be in equilibrium: Fbuoy = Fg (mfluid = mobject)
Fbuoyant

Fbuoy = mfluidg
Fg = mobjectg Δy
Fnet =m Fluidg−m Objectg

Since Fbuoy and Fg both depend on the same volume V we can also write
Object will rise: ρfluid > ρobject
Object will sink: ρfluid < ρobject
Object will be in equilibrium: ρfluid = ρobject

Example. A block of copper (Cu) with mass 400 g and density ρCU = 8.9 g/cm3 is suspended by a string while under water. How does the tension in the string compare with the weight of the copper block?
0 =Fnet = F∑ =FT + FB −Fg
=FT + m fluidg−m CUg
FT =g(m CU −m fluid )=g(0.4kg−(0.4 / 8.9)kg)=g(0.355kg)=0.345N
Fg =(0.4kg)g=0.392N
FTFg
=0.345N0.392N
=88% The buoyant force helps support the weight of the block.

Waterfall Death Trap
Every year several people drown near/underneath waterfalls!
Why?
Foamy, frothy water is much less dense than regular water!!! Hence the force of buoyancy is much less! Humans rapidly sink deep under the surface.
Also “explains” mysterious disappearance of ships in the Bermuda Triangle: Seabed releases of large quantities of gas (“avalanches” at the edge of the continental shelf) just under the ship. The ship immediately sinks below the surface.
