Equilibrium of Floating Bodies
This lecture covers the equilibrium of floating bodies, focusing on Archimedes' principle and the determination of buoyant forces. It explains how to calculate the stability of floating objects and the conditions for equilibrium. The instructor discusses the concept of pressure variation in fluids and the calculation of pressure forces. The lecture also addresses the stability of submerged bodies and the calculation of resultant forces. It concludes with practical examples and applications of the principles discussed.
