How is fluid used to lift heavy objects?

Water helps lift an objects via the buoyancy force. The buoyancy force is equal to the weight of water displaced by the volume of the submerged object. If this buoyancy force is equal to the weight of the object, the object will float in that position. If the object is completely submerged and the resulting buoyancy force is less than the weight of the object, it will continue to sink.
