A block of wood of weight 200 g floats on the surface of water. If the volume of block is 300 cm3 calculate the upthrust due to water.

Answer»

t of weight is newton(kgf) 1 kgf is the force on 1 kg mass INFLUENCED by acceleration DUE to gravity 1kgf=9.8 Nnow,the weight of the wooden BLOCK=200gf=0.2kgf=0.2×9.8 N=1.96 Nsince the block is floating on water ,it's weight is BALANCED by upthrust due to water...thus upthrust due to water=1.96Nhope it helps....
