State the conditions for the equilibrium of floating bodies.Also discuss the stability of a floating body.

Explain equilibria of a floating body.

Condition of translational equilibrium of a rigid body is

Mention the characteristics of floating body.

The state (or) condition of vibration of a vibrating body is known is

Statement-1 : For rotational equilibrium of floating bodies, meta centre must always be lower than centre of gravity of the body Statement-2 : When a floating body is slightly tilted from equilibrium , centre of buoyance shifts. The vertical line passing through new centre of buoyance and initial vertical line meet at a point, which is called meta centre.

The number of floating ribs in human body is
