Bucket and Cylinder
Product Code : JA-MI-2150
The Bucket and Cylinder (SKU JA-MI-2150) demonstrates Archimedes principle: the solid cylinder fits exactly into the hollow bucket, so when the cylinder is immersed and the bucket is then filled with water, the balance returns to its first reading. This bucket and cylinder apparatus is made entirely of brass, 50 mm (2 inch) long, and the cylinder has a suspension hook at one end to hang from a balance. JaincoLab manufactures it for school and college physics laboratories.
Specifications
Both parts are brass and 50 mm (2 inch) long, with a suspension hook on the cylinder; balance and beaker are used with it.

Applications of the bucket and cylinder
Because the bucket holds exactly the volume of the cylinder, refilling it shows that the upthrust equals the weight of liquid displaced.
- Verifying Archimedes principle in class 9 and 11 physics
- Demonstrating upthrust and loss of weight in water
- Comparing upthrust in liquids of different density
- Teacher demonstrations of buoyancy
