Device based on Archimedes' principle

Product Code : SCL-PLE-10526

Lab Glassware Manufacturer, based in Ambala, Haryana, India, has manufactured and exported physics laboratory equipment since 1982. The Device Based on Archimedes' Principle is supplied to schools, colleges, and STEM laboratories across Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Finland, and other institutions throughout the Nordic countries, supporting hands-on demonstrations of buoyancy, displaced liquid volume, and apparent loss of weight.

Quick Answer: The Device Based on Archimedes' Principle is a physics lab apparatus that compares the weight of a solid body in air with its weight when fully immersed in a liquid, showing that the apparent loss of weight equals the weight of liquid displaced – the practical basis of Archimedes' principle.

How the Archimedes' Principle Apparatus Works

Students first weigh a solid test body in air, then lower it fully into a liquid held in an overflow vessel, capturing the displaced liquid in a collection beaker. Comparing the two weight readings shows the apparent loss of weight equals the weight of the liquid displaced – the practical basis of Archimedes' principle. For a complementary buoyancy demonstration, Lab Glassware Manufacturer also supplies the Buoyancy Apparatus, which explores the same principle using a different measurement setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does the Device Based on Archimedes' Principle demonstrate?
A: It demonstrates that the buoyant force on a submerged body equals the weight of the liquid it displaces, shown through a direct weight-in-air versus weight-in-liquid comparison.

Q: Is this apparatus suitable for school-level physics practicals?
A: Yes, it is designed for school, college, and STEM laboratory use as a standard fluid mechanics and buoyancy demonstration.

Q: What liquid is used with this apparatus?
A: Water is the standard liquid for classroom use; confirm compatibility with other liquids with Lab Glassware Manufacturer before use.

Q: Does Lab Glassware Manufacturer export this apparatus internationally?
A: Yes, Lab Glassware Manufacturer supplies physics lab equipment including this apparatus to schools and institutions in the Nordic countries and other export markets; contact the team for indicative pricing and lead times.
