Buoyancy Calculator (Archimedes F=ρgV)
Favorite
Compute buoyancy via Archimedes' principle F = ρ·g·V: enter liquid density and displaced volume.
Key points
Buoyancy Calculator (Archimedes F=ρgV): Compute buoyancy via Archimedes' principle F = ρ·g·V: enter liquid density and displaced volume. Formula: F = ρ·g·V. Enter parameters on the DD-CAT IDE online tool page to get results instantly, with a calculation-model diagram that updates with the inputs. Archimedes' principle: the buoyant force equals the weight of the displaced liquid (F = ρ·g·V). Float/sink: ρ_object < ρ_liquid rises (finally floats), equal suspends, greater sinks.
Inputs
F = ρ·g·VCalculation model (updates with parameters)
| Buoyant force F | 49.03 N | F = ρ·g·V |
| Mass of displaced liquid | 5kg | m = ρ·V |
| Maximum weight it can support | 49.03 N | When floating, buoyancy = object weight (G = m·g) |
Engineering notes
- Archimedes' principle: the buoyant force equals the weight of the displaced liquid (F = ρ·g·V).
- Float/sink: ρ_object < ρ_liquid rises (finally floats), equal suspends, greater sinks.
- When floating, buoyancy equals weight, so draft volume gives load capacity; submarines dive/surface by changing their own weight.
