What is floatation |
| Answer» Floatation\xa0is the act, process, or state of floating.\tIf the buoyant force exerted by the liquid is less than the weight of the object, the object will sink in the liquid.\tIf the buoyant force exerted by the liquid is equal to the weight of the object, the object will float in the liquid.\tIf the buoyant force exerted by the liquid is more than the weight of the object, the object will rise in the liquid and then float.So, we can conclude that an object will float in a liquid if the upward buoyant force it receives from the liquid is great enough to overcome the downward force of its weight. | |
