Name: _________________________________________ 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 Discussion: Weight Of Water Displaced (N) 0.4 0.2

Class: ________

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.
