Buoyant Force on Vertical Prism Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Buoyant Force = Specific Weight of body*Difference in Pressure Head*Cross-Sectional Area of Body
F_Buoyant = ω*H_Pressurehead*A
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Buoyant Force - (Measured in Newton) - Buoyant Force is the upward force exerted by any fluid upon a body placed in it.
Specific Weight of body - (Measured in Newton per Cubic Meter) - Specific Weight of body the ratio of a body’s weight P to its volume V.
Difference in Pressure Head - (Measured in Meter) - The Difference in Pressure Head refers to the height of a liquid column that corresponds to a specific pressure exerted by the liquid at the base of its container.
Cross-Sectional Area of Body - (Measured in Square Meter) - Cross-Sectional Area of Body is the area of a two-dimensional shape that is obtained when a three-dimensional shape is sliced perpendicular to some specified axis at a point.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Specific Weight of body: 75537 Newton per Cubic Meter --> 75537 Newton per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Difference in Pressure Head: 0.7 Meter --> 0.7 Meter No Conversion Required
Cross-Sectional Area of Body: 0.85 Square Meter --> 0.85 Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

F_Buoyant = ω*H_Pressurehead*A --> 75537*0.7*0.85

Evaluating ... ...

F_Buoyant = 44944.515

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

44944.515 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

44944.515 ≈ 44944.51 Newton <-- Buoyant Force

What is meant by Specific Weight?

Specific weight is the weight of a substance per unit volume in absolute units equal to the density multiplied by the acceleration of gravity. The specific weight, also known as the unit weight, is the weight per unit volume of a material. The SI unit for specific weight is [N/m3].

What is the difference between Specific Gravity and Specific Weight?

Specific gravity is a dimensionless quantity whereas specific weight has dimensions. The specific gravity of a material is independent of the gravitational field, but the specific weight of a material is dependent on the gravitational field
