The concept begins with Displacement, which is when water is Incompressible, objects Immersed in water will displace an amount equal to their own volume.
The concept of buoyancy then explains that when the object has density and therefore weighs less than that of the water it displaced, it floats. Therefore if a solid block weighs 10 pounds, but it displaces 9.9 pounds of water, so long as it
does not absorb water and become heavier, it will just barely stay afloat.
All boats float using this principle.

Do buoyancy works only in water If No where else it can work?
All objects have buoyancy when imersed in any liquid.
What is the force that works against buoyancy?
Buoyant force works against the force of pulling.
Was buoyancy always called buoyancy?
yes, it is the same.
Could you find a scientific sentence with the word buoyancy?
We are merely testing the buoyancy of several types of ping pong balls.
How do you use buoyancy?
Buoyancy is what keeps a boat floating on the top of the water. Buoyancy is what makes a helium balloon float in the air.
Do buoyancy works only in water If No where else it can work?

What is the force that works against buoyancy?
Buoyant force works against the force of pulling.
What is buoyancy and does it relate to balloons?
For a full explanation of how the buoyancy principle works and how it relates the helium and hot air balloons go to the related question "What is the buoyancy principle?" in the Related Questions section below.
What is buoyancy determined by?
The amount of buoyancy an item has is determined by its weight in comparison to its volume (or simply put, its density) The less dense it is, the more buoyant it is. For a full explanation of how buoyancy works go to the related question "What is the buoyancy principle?" in the Related Questions section below.
What affect provided by water aerobics helps make the exercise beneficial?
Buoyancy
How floatation works?
floataiton is really just bouyancy. the gravity pushes down and the buoyancy pushes up! at least i think it works that way.
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.
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.
