Archimedes' principle states that the buoyant force acting on an object submerged in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. The principle of floatation, on the other hand, states that a floating object displaces its own weight of the fluid in which it floats. In simpler terms, Archimedes' principle explains why objects float or sink in a fluid, while the principle of floatation specifically focuses on objects that are floating in a fluid.
