Archimedes' Principle
According to Archimedes principle, mass of an object in water would be less than mass of an object in air.So imagine an object of 5 kg and weight of a vessel containing water as 100 kg. The total weight is 105 kg. Now place a weighing machine under the water vessel and immerse the object into the water. Now can I except the weighing machine shows the weight less than 105 kg?
sudeeb
- Dec 20th, 2010
Acc to A.P -- Weight of the water displaced is equal to the weight of the body. So the weighing scale indicate the same weight 105 kg. ?but when we lift the body we will feel low weight due to the upward?bouncy?force. and body float/sink depend upon the bouncy force and metacentre.?

Boiler Efficiency
How can we increase the efficiency of boiler?
deemech
- Jul 11th, 2010
Boiler efficency can be increased by incresing the boiler pressure or by the reheating the steam or by the process of regeneration. Another method is that by increasing the mean temperature of heat addition so that boiler efficiency can be inceased.
shammi
- Jun 8th, 2010
The main problem which derease the efficiency of boiler are caused by hard water. So the best method to increase the efficiency is to use hardness free water and for that water should be treated properly.

Thermal Efficiency
Why the thermal efficiency of the engine decreases at part load?
kanthasami
- Jul 26th, 2009
There are always some mechanical losses in the engine while running. These losses are more or less same at all the speeds. When the speed decreases, the output will obviously decreases. But, the losses remain same. So, the overall efficiency also decrease.
