Abstract

This research was aimed to analyze the profile of students' ability to solve static fluid problems. The survey research involved 70 XII students of Malang State High School 4. The research instrument was in the form of three problem solving questions in the form of a description. The results showed the percentage of students in the expert category was still low at 31% and students in the novice category were quite high at 69%, so that students' overall problem solving abilities were classified as low. In this study, a number of student difficulties were still found, one of which was about the magnitude that affected the buoyancy force of objects in the fluid primarily on the problems of Archimedes' Law. Innovative learning efforts are needed to improve students' ability to solve problems.
