Aim: To study Archimedes principle.
Problem statement: What is the relationship between the buoyant force and the weight of the water
displaced?
Hypothesis: The buoyant force acting on the stone is equal to the weight of the water displaced by
the stone.
Variable:
Manipulated : Weight of stone
Responding

: Weight of water displaced.

Constant

: Type of water used

Materials and apparatus: 1.

Eureka can,

2.

Beaker

Procedure:
1.

Set up the apparatus as shown in the diagram above.

2.

Record the weight of the stone as shown in diagram (a).

3.

Measure the weight of the empty beaker and record it as W1.

4.

Immerse the stone into the water in the Eureka Vessel as shown in diagram (b).

5.

Record the weight of the stone when immersed in water.

6.

Measure the weight of the beaker that contains the displaced water and record it as W2.

Record the observations in the form of the table.

Class: ________

Result:
Weight of stone in air = 0.8 N (W3)
Weight of stone in water = 0.4 N (W4)
(appearance weight loss of the stone)
Buoyant force acting on the stone = 0.4 N (W3 - W4)
Weight of empty beaker = 0.6 N (W1)
Weight of beaker and water displaced = 1.0 N (W5)
Weight of water displaced = 0.4 N (W5 - W1)
From the results, W4 < W3
W3 - W4 = W5 - W1
Weight Of Stone in the water (N)
0.4
0.2

Weight Of Water Displaced (N)

0.4
0.2

Discussion:

From the experiment, it is observed that volume of water displaced is equal to the volume
of the object that is completely immersed in water.
The weight of the stone when it is completely immersed in water is less than the natural
weight of the stone in air. This is due to the upthrust or buoyant force of the water acting on the stone.
The amount of water in the beaker is the amount of water displaced by the stone. The
weight loss of the stone is equal to the weight of the water displaced.
Conlusion:
The buoyant force acting on the stone is equal to the weight of the water displaced by the
stone. Hypothesis is accepted.
