Year Published: 1993
Abstract: The origin of buoyancy and its application to weighing are traced, and the Principle of Archimedes is developed. The form of buoyancy corrections and their application to weighing on an electonic balance and on a single-pan direct-weighing analytical balance are presented and analyzed. The definition and application of the concept of apparent mass are discussed, stressing that it is the true mass of an object that is the desired quantity in accurate weighing. The extremes of the values of buoyancy corrections and errors due to variations in both air density and object density are discussed.
