Answer :

The net force on the sphere that weighs 13.1 N and displaces 5.1 N of water if it is dropped into a container of water is 8 N

Net force = Fg - Fb

Fg = Force of gravity

Fb = Buoyant force

Fg = 13.1 N

Fb = 5.1 N

Net force = 13.1 - 5.1

Net force = 8 N

The direction is towards the force of gravity since Fg > Fb

Buoyant force is the upward thrust provided by the water on an object that is either floating or submerged in water. Force of gravity is the force acting on a mass due to the presence of gravity. It is also called as weight.

Therefore, the net force on the sphere is 8 N downwards
