Archimedes' Principle
Archimedes' studied the upthrust acting on a body, when it is partially or completely immersed in a fluid by performing several experiments and then stated the following principle known as the Archimedes' Princip..
Archimedes' Principle
The underlying fact on which the principle is based was discovered by Archimedes in about 300 B.C. The story goes that the King of Sicily suspected that the goldsmith has mixed some silver in his crown and cheated him. Without destroying the crown he wanted to know the truth. Archim..
Fluids Pressure Upthrust and Flotation
Introduction - The pressure exerted by a liquid on the base of the container depends on the vertical height of the liquid over it not on the area of cross-section. As one goes deeper in the swimming pool, the pressure on the ear drum is found to increase. A column of mercury exerts more pressure th..
Experiment to Verify Archimedes' Principle
Take a clean and dry beaker and find it's mass (m) using a physical balance. Now find the weight of a stone by suspending it from a spring balance. Fill an Eureka can (Eureka can is a beaker having a spout near the top) with water filled till the spout. Place the beaker of mass 'm' under the spout...

Summary - Pressure at a point in a liquid depends upon the depth and on the density of the liquid. The pressure at any depth in a liquid acts equally in all directions. Liquids always find their own level. Pressure applied at any point in a confined liquid is transmitted equally in all the directio..

R.D of a Solid - R.D = Since weight is proportional to mass R.D When a body is immersed in water, it displaces its own volume of water. Upthrust on the body is equal to the weight of this displaced volume of water, which is also equal to loss of weight of the body. Hence 'weight of equal ..

Consider a solid cylinder of height 'h' and area of cross-section A, to be completely immersed in a fluid of constant density r . The horizontal thrusts on the cylinder balance each other...

She should be the head of Tutor Vista. She knows how to treat her students. Her teaching style is spectacular.
This tutor was excellent. very clear on all of the problems. I would like to have more tutoring from Tutor Vista
This Tutor Vista is GREAT! loved this session, it helped me heaps.
Tutor are so organized and neat with their teachings. She set up everything that made the problems more understandable by showing them in such a simple manner, I feel I could really learn from them and pertain it to my class! :)
