Most of the people is neutrally buoyant, hence we can assume that a person has
approximately the same density as water Dperson=Dwater=103Kg/m3. Consider a
person who has a mass of 80 Kg. Calculate the buoyancy force acting on a person
when he/she lies at the bottom of a in a pool full of
(Assume g=10 m/s2)
Q1: Air (Density of air: Dair=1Kg/m3)
answer: 0.8 N
Q2: Dead Sea water (Ddsw=1.2 x 103 Kg/m3)
answer: 960 N
