  2. Archimedes' principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedes'_principle

    To find the force of buoyancy acting on the object when in air, using this particular information, this formula applies: Buoyancy force = weight of object in empty space − weight of object immersed in fluid. The final result would be measured in Newtons. Air's density is very small compared to most solids and liquids.

  3. Cartesian diver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_diver

    A Cartesian diver or Cartesian devil is a classic science experiment which demonstrates the principle of buoyancy (Archimedes' principle) and the ideal gas law.The first written description of this device is provided by Raffaello Magiotti, in his book Renitenza certissima dell'acqua alla compressione (Very firm resistance of water to compression) published in 1648.

  4. Buoyancy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buoyancy

    The Galileo's Ball experiment, showing the different buoyancy of the same object, depending on its surrounding medium. The ball has certain buoyancy in water, but once ethanol is added (which is less dense than water), it reduces the density of the medium, thus making the ball sink further down (reducing its buoyancy).

  5. Buoyant density centrifugation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buoyant_density_centrifugation

    Buoyant density of the majority of DNA is 1.7g/cm 3 [3] which is equal to the density of 6M CsCl solution. [citation needed] Buoyant density of DNA changes with its GC content. The term "satellite DNA" refers to small bands of repetitive DNA sequences with distinct base composition floating above (A+T rich) or below (G+C rich) the main ...

  6. Internal wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_wave

    The displacement of the thermocline of a lake, which separates warmer surface from cooler deep water, feels the buoyancy force expressed through the reduced gravity. For example, the density difference between ice water and room temperature water is 0.002 the characteristic density of water. So the reduced gravity is 0.2% that of gravity.

  7. Hydrostatic weighing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_weighing

    Hydrostatic weighing, also referred to as underwater weighing, hydrostatic body composition analysis and hydrodensitometry, is a technique for measuring the density of a living person's body. It is a direct application of Archimedes' principle , that an object displaces its own volume of water.

  8. Convection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convection

    Buoyancy occurs due to a difference in indoor-to-outdoor air density resulting from temperature and moisture differences. The greater the thermal difference and the height of the structure, the greater the buoyancy force, and thus the stack effect. The stack effect helps drive natural ventilation and infiltration.

  9. Reynolds number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reynolds_number

    From these experiments came the dimensionless Reynolds number for dynamic similarity—the ratio of inertial forces to viscous forces. Reynolds also proposed what is now known as the Reynolds averaging of turbulent flows, where quantities such as velocity are expressed as the sum of mean and fluctuating components.
