When an object in a fluid displaces an equal weight of fluid to its own weight, it will float.
This happens whether the fluid is a liquid or a gas.

What if buoyancy is the property of matter that can be defined as?
Buoyancy is a force exerted by a fluid against an immersed object.
What structure is used by the chambered nautilus for buoyancy?
while the chambered nautilus for buoyancy on the ancestral mollusc's shell.
When does an object have positive buoyancy?
A body has positive buoyancy when its density is lower than the density of the fluid the body is in.
Does buoyancy have anything to do with your human body being able to absorb water?
no, buoyancy is when something floats on water
His principle has to do with buoyancy and displacement?
Who was Archimedes.
Do buoyancy works only in water If No where else it can work?
All objects have buoyancy when imersed in any liquid.
What are buoyancy compensators typically used for?
Buoyancy compensators are typically used for compensating things such as buoyancy things. These things need to be compensated very often to work properly.
Do buoyancy work only in water If No then where else can it work?
Buoyancy can work in any liquid provided that the object floating weighs less than the liquid it displaces. This is true regardless of whether it is water or not! Buoyancy works in any fluid. The fluid can be any liquid, or any gas.
Does lifting weights in a pool work as well as on land?
No........buoyancy.
How does buoyancy allow a toilet to work?
to see the float blance
What affect provided by water aerobics helps make the exercise beneficial?
Buoyancy
Does buoyancy work in space?
No chance of buoyancy force in free space. Buoyancy is the force is due to the weight of the expelled fluid when an object comes into that fluid. But in free space no material is present and so no expelling. Hence no buoyancy.
Will a cut up float noodle still work?
Yes, but with less buoyancy.
What kind of buoyancy do submarines have when they are resting on the surfce of the ocean?
Positive Buoyancy. When submarine submerges, it initially uses negative buoyancy to submerge, and then levels out to neutral buoyancy.
What does buoyancy help with?
High buoyancy=easy to float
Does freshwater have buoyancy?
Yes, all fluids have buoyancy.
Was buoyancy always called buoyancy?
yes, it is the same.
