a brass spring weighs .83 Newtons while it is suspended in the air. next you immerse the ring in a container of light corn syrup. the ring appears to weigh .71 Newtons. what is the buoyant force acting on in the ring of light corn syrup?

Sagot :

The force of gravity on the object is the same all the time ... doesn't matter
whether it's in the air, in a box, or in corn syrup.

So when it's in corn syrup, the difference must be the buoyant force.

  0.83N - 0.71N = 0.12 Newton

I'm sorry, but I just have to say how disappointed I am that you couldn't
get through this one on your own.
