Explain equilibrium of floating body.
The equilibrium of a floating body is of following types:
Stable equilibrium
Unstable equilibrium
Neutral equilibrium
Stable Equilibrium
When a body is given a small angular displacement (i.e. tilted slightly), by some external force,and if it returns back to its original position due to the internal forces (the weight and the upthrust), such an equilibrium is called stable equilibrium.
Unstable Equilibrium
If the body does not return to its original position from the slightly displaced angular position and heels farther away, when given a small angular displacement, such an equilibrium is called an unstable equilibrium.
Neutral Equilibrium
If a body, when given a small angular displacement, occupies a new position and remain....Show More
