Answer:
Buoyancy is the property of fluid which makes object appear lighter immersed in the fluid.
Explanation:
Buoyancy is the net upward force exerted on any object in a liquid. If the buoyancy is greater than the weight of the object, the object will float and float on the surface of the water.
Archimedes' principle: states that an object immersed in a liquid receives an upward force equal to the weight of the displaced liquid. This is the first equilibrium state.
The buoyant force is the upward force on the immersed object which is equal to the weight of liquid, in which it is immersed, displaced by that object.
This is the reason why the object appears lighter in water.
