A metallic cube of mass ‘m’ is suspended by a string. Area of each face is ‘A’. If p be the hydrostatic pressure on the bottom face of the cube, then
then tension in the string is mg
buoyant force acting on the cube is pA.
buoyant force acting on the cube is less than pA.
buoyant force acting on the cube is (T-pA) where T is the tension in the string.
Buoyant force = Net hydrostatic upthrust acting on the cube = pA.
