Archimedes principle, named after the Greek mathematician and astronomer, states that any object, wholly or partially immersed in a fluid, is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. In other words, the volume of fluid that is displaced when an object is placed in that fluid is the volume of the object itself.
