When a body is immersed fully or partially in a fluid, it experiences an upward force known as the buoyant force. This force is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the body. The more fluid displaced, the greater the buoyant force. This principle is described by Archimedes’ principle.

When a body is immersed fully or partially in a fluid, it experiences an upward buoyant force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. This force can cause the body to float, sink, or remain suspended, depending on the body’s density relative to the fluid.
