I. BuoyancyI. Buoyancy
• Ability to floatAbility to float
• Archimedes’ principleArchimedes’ principle – – buoyant force = weight of fluid buoyant force = weight of fluid displaceddisplaced
A solid block of steel sinks when A solid block of steel sinks when placed in water. A steel ship with placed in water. A steel ship with the same weight floats.the same weight floats.
II. DensityII. Density
• Mass per unit volumeMass per unit volume
• ““How much stuff in a specific amount of How much stuff in a specific amount of space”space”

2. Comparing Densities2. Comparing Densities
• Density of pure water = 1 g/mLDensity of pure water = 1 g/mL
• If an object is MORE dense, it will If an object is MORE dense, it will _____ _____
• If an object is LESS dense, If an object is LESS dense, it will it will __________
• If it has EQUAL density, __________If it has EQUAL density, __________
sink
float
suspends
Forces in Fluids - Floating and Sinking
Density
Changes in density cause a submarine to dive, rise, or float.
