Answer:
Archimedes' principle states that the upward buoyant force that is exerted on a body immersed in a fluid, whether fully or partially, is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces. Archimedes' principle is a law of physics fundamental to fluid mechanics.

- It is because for the floating body, the necessary condition is that the weight of the liquid displaced must be equal to the weight of the body in air.
