Question

state an Archimedes principle in your own words

Answer 1

Archimedes' Principle

When a solid body is partially are completely immersed in a fluid, the fluid exerts an upward force on the body, whose magnitude is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid.

Example, a ship floats on water due to the Archimedes principle

Answer 2

Archimedes' principle states that a body immersed in a fluid is subjected to an upwards force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. This is a first condition of equilibrium. We consider that the above force, called force of buoyancy, is located in the centre of the submerged hull that we call centre of buoyancy.
