To find the buoyant force acting on a solid completely immersed in a fluid, we can use Archimedes' principle. According to this principle, the buoyant force (B) is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the solid. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - Volume of the solid (V) = 5 m³ - Density of the fluid (ρ) = 0.5 kg/m³ - Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s² ...
