Question: Choose the wrong statement ?
- 1. The center of buoyancy is located at the center of gravity of the displaced liquid
- 2. For stability of a submerged body, the center of gravity of body must lie directly below the center of buoyancy
- 3. If e.g. and center of buoyancy coincide, the submerged body must lie at neutral equilibrium for all positions
- 4. All floating bodies are stable
Question: Choose the wrong statement?
- 1. any weight, floating or immersed in a liquid, is acted upon by a buoyant force
- 2. Buoyant force is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced
- 3. The point through which buoyant force acts, is called the center of buoyancy
- 4. Center of buoyancy is located above the center of gravity of the displaced liquid v
