Buoyant Force Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Buoyant Force = Pressure*Area
F_buoy = p*A
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Buoyant Force - (Measured in Newton) - Buoyant Force is the upward force exerted by any fluid upon a body placed in it.
Pressure - (Measured in Pascal) - Pressure is the force applied perpendicular to the surface of an object per unit area over which that force is distributed.
Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - The Area is the amount of two-dimensional space taken up by an object.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Pressure: 800 Pascal --> 800 Pascal No Conversion Required
Area: 50 Square Meter --> 50 Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

F_buoy = p*A --> 800*50

Evaluating ... ...

F_buoy = 40000

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

40000 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

40000 Newton <-- Buoyant Force

What is Buoyancy?

Buoyancy is the force exerted by a fluid that opposes an object's weight. When an object is placed in a fluid (liquid or gas), it experiences an upward force known as the buoyant force.

How to Calculate Buoyant Force?

Buoyant Force calculator uses Buoyant Force = Pressure*Area to calculate the Buoyant Force, Buoyant Force is the upward force exerted by any fluid upon a body placed in it. Buoyant Force is denoted by F_buoy symbol.

How to calculate Buoyant Force using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Buoyant Force, enter Pressure (p) & Area (A) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Buoyant Force calculation can be explained with given input values -> 40000 = 800*50.
