APFIVE Archimedes Principle and Buoyant Force
Which of the following statements best describes Archimedes’ principle as it applies to the buoyant force on a submarine?
A
It claims that the buoyant force is the result of water particles adhering to the submarine’s surface, creating an upward pull.
B
It proposes that the buoyant force is generated by the difference in pressure between the top and bottom of the submarine.
C
It states that the upward buoyant force is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the submarine’s volume.
D
It asserts that the buoyant force is proportional to the submarine’s mass and inversely proportional to its depth.
