Archimedes' Principle relates the weight of a fluid displaced to the object placed in the fluid. If the weight of the fluid displaced is less than the object's weight ,then the object sinks. When the weights of the object and displaced water are equal, the object will float.

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 and this is known as archimedes' principle.
