what happens to the force of gravity when an object is immersed in a high density fluid?
I'd like help with question I asked above. what happens to the force of gravity when an object is immersed in a high density fluid?
"This is because the fluid, having a higher density, contains more mass and hence more weight in the same volume. The buoyant force, which equals the weight of the fluid displaced, is thus greater than the weight of the object. ... Moreover, the fraction of a floating object that is submerged equals its specific gravity." According to https://opentextbc.ca/openstaxcollegephysics/chapter/archimedes-principle/#:~:text=This%20is%20because%20the%20fluid,the%20weight%20of%20the%20object.&text=Moreover%2C%20the%20fraction%20of%20a,submerged%20equals%20its%20specific%20gravity.
That may help..
Thank you
:) Your very welcome! <3
Can you help me with another question?

what do you need help with @CAMMY
a solid object placed is to be moved by applying a force to it. When a force is applied however the object moves very easily but as the speed of the object increases it is as though the fluid thickens and becomes very resistant to the object's motion. This fluid that the object is in could likely be. Choose from a. Newtonian fluid b. Dilatant fluid c. mud d. a gas or e. Bingham fluid
