Question

Based on Archimedes' principle, we know that if an object displaces a given weight of water, then the object is being buoyed up by an equal amount of force.

true or false?

Answer 1

True. If the amount displaced is more than the mass, it floats. If the amount is less than the mass, it will sink.

Answer 2

The answer is True.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Archimedes' principle, the buoyant force is equal to the submerged volume multiplied by the density of the displaced liquid; This happens because when the body is submerged, the fluid will exert an equal and opposite direction force, due to the change in pressure.
