In physics, buoyancy (pronounced /ˈbɔɪ.ənsi/ ) is the upward force that keeps things afloat. The net upward buoyancy force is equal to the magnitude of the weight of fluid displaced by the bod...

; Back to Buoyancy Brainteasers; When you place a block of wood in a pail of water, the block displaces some of the water, and the water level goes up. If you could weigh the water that the wood displaces, you would find that its weight equals the weight of the wood.

Explaining how a boat like La Salle's La Belle sinks is not all that difficult: The space within the boat fills up with water, either through the hull or over the boat's sides, causing the boat to lose its buoyancy.

This is a function of buoyancy. We call objects that float, positively buoyant. Objects that sink are called negatively buoyant. We refer to object that neither float nor sink as neutrally buoyant. ... The idea of buoyancy was summed up by Archimedes, a Greek mathematician, in what is known as Archimedes Principle:

Applications of buoyancy. ... Buoyancy arises from the fact that fluid pressure increases with depth and from the fact that the increased pressure is exerted in all directions (Pascal's principle) so that there is an unbalanced upward force on the bottom of a submerged object.

Buoyancy: Archimedes Principle ... This lesson is concerned with the second type, the type that are dependent on buoyancy. ... Since the aluminum cube displaces 1 cubic centimeter of water, it has a buoyancy of 1.0 grams. Since buoyancy is a force and not a mass, it must be converted to the proper units, which when multiplied...
