Description

The experiment P1.8.2.1 verifies Archimedes principle. In this experiment, a hollow cylinder and a solid cylinder which fits snugly inside it are suspended one beneath the other on the beam of a balance. The deflection of the balance is compensated to zero. When the solid cylinder is immersed in a liquid, the balance shows the reduction in weight due to the buoyancy of the body in the liquid. When the same liquid is filled in the hollow cylinder the deflection of the balance is once again compensated to zero, as the weight of the filled liquid compensates the buoyancy.
