If the buoyant force is greater than the object’s weight, the object will rise to the surface and float. If the buoyant force is less than the object’s weight, the object will sink. If the buoyant force equals the object’s weight, the object will remain suspended at that depth. The buoyant force is always present whether the object floats, sinks, or is suspended in a fluid. Archimedes’ principle states that the buoyant force on an

If ρb<ρf (the body is less dense than the fluid), then F>0 and there is a net upward force on the body: the body will float up toward the surface.

The buoyant force is always present and acting on any object immersed either partially or entirely in a fluid. Archimedes’ principle states that the buoyant force on an object equals the weight of the fluid it displaces.

This weight is supported by the surrounding fluid, so the buoyant force must equal w fl , the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. In other words, the force due to the pressure at the bottom is pointed up, while at the top, the force due to the pressure is pointed down; the forces due to the pressures at the sides are pointing into the body.
