What weight of water is displaced by a 100-ton floating ship? What is the buoyant force that acts on this ship?


Sagot :

I can never remember whether the '100 T' is the gross weight of the ship or the weight of the cargo it can carry. Let's say it's the gross loaded weight. / / / A 100 ton floating ship displaces 100 tons of water, and the bbuoyant force on it is 100 tons.
