    Daniel Vasquez
    This document contains information about fluid mechanics principles and sample problems from a course at the Technological Institute of the Philippines. It discusses Archimedes' principle of buoyancy, statical stability of floating bodies including metacenter and metacentric height, and provides two sample problems calculating mass and draft of a boat and stability of a loaded barge. It was prepared by the structural engineer Engr. Adams Royce A. Dionisio for a fluid mechanics course at the Institute.

    Archimedes’ Principle
    Archimedes’ Principle- or principle of buoyancy, states that when a body is placed in a static fluid, it is buoyed
    up by a force that is equal to the weight of the fluid that is displaced by the body, discovered by the Greek
    Scientist Archimedes. The point where the buoyant force acts is called the center of buoyancy coinciding with
    the center of gravity of the volume of fluid displaced.

    Sample Problems:
    1. A flat-bottomed boat has vertical sides and a bottom surface area of 0.75 𝑚2 . It floats in water such that its
    draft (depth below the surface) is 0.3 m. Determine the mass of the boat. What is the draft when a 50-kg man
    stands in the center of the boat?
    Solution:
