What are positive negative and neutral buoyancies?

Positive buoyancy . . .When the object is completely submerged, the net force on it ... the combinationof gravity down and buoyancy up ... is upward, so the object tries to rise.Negative buoyancy . . .When the object is completely submerged, the net force on it ... the combinationof gravity down and buoyancy up ... is downward, so the object tries to sink.Neutral buoyancy . . .When the object is completely submerged, the net force on it ... the combinationof gravity down and buoyancy up ... is zero. The object stays at whatever depthit is released, without rising or sinking.

How does buoyancy occur?

Buoyancy occurs in fluids, which are gases and liquids. Hot air balloons are buoyant in air and ships are buoyant in water for examples. When the buoyancy of objects exceeds the weight of those objects, the objects rise. When the weight exceeds the buoyancy they sink. And when the buoyancy equals the weight of the objects they float.
