i have just bought a new life jacket and it has 150 neutons bouyancy. how do you work out bouyancy?

Answer 1

this is the amount of force. Force equals mass times acceleration. The mass is ur bodyweight in kilos and the acceleration is gravity 9.8m/s/s

Answer 2

The buoyancy of an object depends only upon two factors: the object's volume, and the density of the surrounding fluid. The greater the object's volume, the higher the buoyancy. The higher the surrounding density, the greater the buoyancy.

Answer 3

you dont need to, does the jacket have the E mark with a rating of 50n then as long as its your size you should be OK, 150 may be the actual rating of the jacket
