Objective: Determining buoyant updraught as a function of immersion depth

Thematic focus: ..
Measure the force on a body immersed in water.
Determine the updraught and confirm that it is proportional to the depth to which the body is immersed.
Determine the density of water.

Experiment description: ..
Archimedes’ principle states that a body immersed in a fluid experiences an upward force (updraught or force of buoyancy) FG. The magnitude of this force is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. For a regularly shaped immersed body, the updraught is proportional to the depth h to which the body is immersed as long as this is smaller than the height H of the body itself.
