it works on Archimedes principle. when a particle is submerged in water, it experiences a loss of weight equal to the amount of water displaced by its submerged water, but when it is taken out of water it has its own weight along with water

The Principle is Buoyancy. It is the upward force exerted by water. So when you immerse a bucket of water in a well then this upward force acts. As a result, You may feel the bucket is lighter. When you lift it over air you could find that the bucket is heavier.
It also depends on the substance you put the bucket.
Archimedes' principle says that "when a body is immersed fully or partially in a fluid, it experiences an upward force that is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by it"
