Flotation chapter-wise notes class 9
Flotation Flotation When an object is placed on the surface of a liquid if the object float on the surface this condition is called flotation. Buoyancy The property of the liquid which makes object float on its surface. this property is called by buoyancy. Density It is defined as mass per unit volume. Formula Unit: It has unit kilogram per cubic meters ( Kg / m 3 ). Relative density (RD) It is defined as the ratio of the density of the liquid to the density of the water at 4 degrees Celsius. Formula Relative density= density of the liquid /density of the water at 4 degree Celsius Relative density is constant it has no unit . At 4 degrees Celsius water has a maximum density that's why we take the water at 4 degrees Celsius. Pressure Pressure is defined as a force acting per unit area. Formula Unit newton per square meters ( N/m 2 ) or pascal( Pa) Define one Pascal Pressure is said to be one Pascal when a force of ...
