WEIGHT LOSS UNDER WATER Objective: Look at buoyancy from the point of view of “weight loss”.

RESEARCH Weight: measure of force of gravity on mass Mass: amount of matter in an object Weight Loss: can be caused by buoyancy Buoyancy: fluids possess a force that pushes up on objects, lessoning their weight Buoyancy causes some objects to float.

RESEARCH cont. Density of a fluid compared to density of immersed object: determines whether an object sinks or floats. Any change in density changes the amount of buoyancy. To investigate buoyancy: you can measure “weight loss” objects experience

PROCEDURE Weigh each object using the spring scale. Record the weights in the data table. 1 Newton = 100 grams Weigh each object in water. (Item must be completely under water, but NOT the spring scale). Record. Calculate the difference in weights.

IAN. Pg 27 CALCULATE: Divide the weight in water by the the weight in air for each object to get the Ratio of Weight in Water to Weight in Air: Round to the .XX (hundredths)

CONCLUSIONS 1. Did any of the objects lose mass? 2. Did any of the objects lose weight? 3. What causes the objects to lose weight while immersed in water?

CONCLUSIONS 4. If you used salt water instead of fresh water to immerse the objects how would it affect the amount of weight loss? 5. Which kinds of objects had a higher ratio? 6. What does it mean when objects have a higher ratio? 7. What causes the ratio of weight in water to weight in air to be different for different objects?
