Next >

In what way does Archimedes’ principle relate the buoyant force experienced by a submarine to the surrounding water particles?

A

It states that the upward buoyant force is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the submarine’s volume.

B

It claims that the buoyant force is the result of water particles adhering to the submarine’s surface, creating an upward pull.

C

It asserts that the buoyant force is proportional to the submarine’s mass and inversely proportional to its depth.

D

It proposes that the buoyant force is generated by the difference in pressure between the top and bottom of the submarine.
