...pressure p, at any point in the liquid, is obviously p=l=hdg (166) a 68. Principle of Archimedes. A solid immersed in a liquid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the liquid displaced. This principle is readily shown to be true by considering a vessel filled with liquid which is in equilibrium.... | |
