DESCRIPTION
The Large Archimedes’ Principle Apparatus allows students to experimentally verify that
the upward force experienced by a body when it is immersed in a liquid is equal to the
weight of liquid the body displaces. It can also be used to determine the specific gravity
of an unknown liquid.
The apparatus consists of a transparent container (1, Figure 1) and a sinker (2) that fits
inside the container exactly. A hook (3) allows the sinker to be suspended underneath the
container, and a second hook (4) permits the entire apparatus to be hung from the
hook of a spring balance. Lines (5) marked on the container and the sinker indicate one
fourth, half, and three-fourths of the volumes of these bodies.
