➡THE LAW OF FLOATATION
The law of floatation states that, a floating body displaces its own weight of the fluid in which it floats.
This means if a log of 200kg (2000N) floats in water displaces 200kg (2000N) of water, if the same log is placed in other liquid and be able to float it will displace the same 200kg of fluid in which it floats.
