AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of finding the buoyant force on a swimmer who displaces water with a weight of 519 N, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Archimedes' Principle**: Archimedes' Principle states that the buoyant force acting on an object submerged in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid that the object displaces. 2. **Identify the Given Information**: The problem states that the swimmer displaces water with a weight of 519 N. This weight represents the weight of the water that has been displaced by the swimmer. ...
