The density of lead is greater than iron, and both metals are denser than water. Is the buoyant force on a solid lead object (a) greater than, (b) equal to, or (c) less than the buoyant force acting on a solid iron object of the same dimensions?

Respuesta :

Answer:

b) equal

Explanation:

in question we it is given that the density of the iron is greater than the density of lead and the density of the water is less than both  the metal.

As both the body is submerged in the water so for the buoyant force calculation  we will take the density of water.

i.e. for buoyant force calculation both the metal will have equal buoyant force acting on it.
