Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Buoyant force is that which causes objects to float. It is caused due to the differences in pressure acting on opposite sides of the object that is immersed in liquid. Thus, due to the upward thrust exerted by the liquid, there is an apparent loss in weight of the body.
