b) Force measured by the lower sensor (buoyancy force)
c) Weight of the cylinder
12. In DataStudio, click the Start button to begin data collection.
13. Use the lab jack to raise the beaker until the cylinder is fully submerged in the water.
14. To end data collection, click the Stop button in DataStudio.
Analysis:
1. What happens to the apparent weight as the cylinder is submerged? Explain.
2. What happens to the buoyancy force as the cylinder is submerged? Explain.
3. How are the apparent weight, buoyancy force, and cylinder weight related to one another?
Explain.
