Answer:
Answer is B.
Archimedes' principle indicates that the upward buoyant force that is exerted on a body immersed in a fluid, whether fully or partially submerged, is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces.
In this case, The weight of an object in air is 16N and it weighs 12N when fully immersed in water. So, the weight of the water displaced is given as 16N−12N=4N.
Therefore, the weight of water displaced by the object is 4 N.
