Buoyance is an upward force exerted by a fluid that opposes the weight of a partially or fullyimmersed object. The upward buoyant force is calculated via the following equation:Fp = PfgVV is the volume of displaced fluid (object), pf is the density of the fluid, and F, is the buoyantforce.1) Calculate the buoyant force on 10 tons of solid steel completely submerged inwater and compare this with the steel's weight with the density of 7800 kg/m³.(b) What is the maximum buoyant force that water could exert on this samesteel if it were shaped into a boat that could displace 12m3 of water?

There are various methods that can be used to calculate the hydrostatic force on a submerged surface. Which of the following statements are correct? (i) (iii) The pressure prism method gives good understanding of the fundamentals but it can only be used for plane surface uniform in the spanwise direction. The parallel axis theorem can be used for surface not uniform in the spanwise direction such as a circular or triangular plane surfaces, but it is limited to simple geometry where the second moment of area can be easily defined. The elementary area method can be used for any 2 or 3 dimensional surface as long as the geometric unit normal vector is known at any point on the surface. (A) (B) (C) (D) (i) and (ii) (i) and (iii) (ii) and (iii) All of the above The Eulerian frame of reference is commonly used in analyzing fluid problems instead of the Lagrangian frame of reference. The main differences between these 2 frames of reference are: (i) The steady motion in Lagrangian frame of…
