Archimedes' principle can be expressed as follows: "weight loss underwater is directly proportional to the volume of water displaced by the body's volume".

What is Archimedes' principle ?

According to Archimedes' principle, a body submerged fully or partially in a fluid (like water) receives an upward buoyant force equivalent to the weight of the fluid it displaces. When an object is submerged in a fluid, it appears to lose weight due to the buoyant force.

So, Archimedes' principle can be expressed as follows: "weight loss underwater is directly proportional to the volume of water displaced by the body's volume".
