...glass, and loaded so that one shall float, the other sink. Experiment. 1st. A heavy body when immersed is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the displaced liquid. Place the receiver on the stand, fill it with water and draw out the latter until the point...

...they repel the water, heaping it up on each side, thus forming a cavity in the surface ; the needle is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid, and, when this exceeds the weight of the needle, it will float. It is on this principle that...

...buoyant effort is equal to the weight of air displaced. Hence we have the following principle, entirely analogous to the principle of ARCHIMEDES : ~When a...in the atmosphere without either rising or falling. Smoke, for example, rises, because it is lighter than the air which it displaces. It continues to rise...

...BALLOONING. Buoyant Effort of the Atmosphere. 14O. It has been shown that a body plunged into a liquid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the displaced liquid. That a similar effect is produced upon a body in the atmosphere, may be shown by means of an...

...or partialty immersed in a Fluid or Fluids (not necessarily a single liquid), at rest under gravity, is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid, acting vertically upwards through the centre of gravity of the displaced fluid." To prove this...

...use of standards of mass is the buoyancy or lifting effect of the air. A body immersed in any fluid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. Two bodies of equal mass, if placed one on each pan of an equal-arm balance, will balance each...

...or iron instead of the liquid. Therefore when any object is wholly or partially immersed in a liquid it is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the displaced liquid, and the center of pressure is where the center of gravity of the submerged portion would be...
