To calculate the upthrust of the liquid on the object, we need to use Archimedes' principle, which states that the upthrust on an object submerged in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.
Here's how you can calculate the upthrust:
Step 1: Find the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.
The weight of the fluid displaced is equal to the volume of the object submerged in the fluid multiplied by the density of the fluid. In this case, the object has a volume of 4 cubic meters, and the density of the fluid is 1030 kilograms per cubic meter.
Weight of fluid displaced = Volume of object × Density of fluid
Weight of fluid displaced = 4 m^3 × 1030 kg/m^3
Step 2: Calculate the upthrust.
The upthrust is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced.
Upthrust = Weight of fluid displaced
Now, you can substitute the calculated values into the equation to find the upthrust:
Upthrust = 4 m^3 × 1030 kg/m^3
Simplifying the equation gives you the final answer for the upthrust.
