Question
What happens to the buoyant force as more and more volume of a solid object is immersed in a liquid ? When does the buoyant force become maximum ?
Solution
The buoyant force increases when there is an increase in volume of solid object immersed in a liquid. The buoyant force reaches the maximum when the object is completely immersed in a liquid.
