How much buoncy is required to float 1 kilogram?

Answer 1

If you're doing it on earth, it takes 2.205 pounds. (rounded)

If you're doing it on the moon, it takes 4.32 ounces. (rounded)

But the same volume of displaced water will provide the required

buoyancy in both places.

Answer 2

To float 1 kilogram, you would need approximately 9.8 Newtons of buoyant force, which is equal to the weight of the object being supported. This is based on the principle that an object will float if the buoyant force acting on it is equal to or greater than its weight.
