The buoyancy force is the reason why ships float. It's a force equal to the weight of the water displaced by the volume. It ends up being a balancing act between the density of whatever you're trying to float and water. Big ships are mostly full of air, and air is less dense than water, so ships are, on average, less dense than water, so they float.

TrustmeImLegit posted:Metal is much more dense than water or air and ships are not airtight. So your "theory" isn't even logically consistent. Its sorcery. The bottoms of ships are airtight you dumbass.

FIll your sink with water, take a glass and hold it right side up in the water so its halfway covered. You'll feel a force pushing the glass back up out of the water. If you let go itll fall over cause its got poo poo balance. This is why boats look like baots becaUSE THEY ARE DESIGNED TO NOT FALL OVER LIKE A CUP

Moridin920 posted:It's not about density, it is the amount of water being displaced creating buoyancy force. hey idiot the density of an object tells you exactly how much water will be displaced buoyancy force is directly proportional to density

Moridin920 posted:If you start with density you just have to solve for volume to get the buoyancy though so.... okay? Way to make it harder on yourself for no reason? jesus dude you use the MASS and the DENSITY not loving volume christ

Moridin920 posted:The equation is Fb = dgv - to solve for Fb, you need the volume of the object which you can derive from mass + density. Im a physicist not an engineer shit4brains. AKA actual science

Really basic stuff that is the foundation of physics is things like gauss's law which does not give a gently caress about the size or shape or volume of whatever you're talking about. Its um uh that one theorem about conservative forces.
