The easiest way is to place it in a large container of water. There are more complex, scientific ways to test buoyancy, but this requires the use of modeling computers.
Buoyant - is something that 'floats' on the surface of whatever medium it is resting on. For example a boat on water is buoyant.
An object that can float on water or other fluids is called buoyant.
A beach ball is buoyant because it floats on water due to its low density and ability to displace water, creating an upward force known as buoyancy.
If you're talking about something in say a tank of water, the buoyant force points up and opposes the downward force of gravity......
The term is "buoyant." Buoyant objects are able to float on the surface of a fluid, such as water, due to displacing an amount of fluid equal to their weight.
You put it in water and see if it floats.

A rock sinks because it is not buoyant. Buoyancy is whether or not something floats in water. There are three levels of buoyancy; buoyant, neutrally buoyant, and not buoyant. When something is buoyant, that means it has a lower density than water, causing it to float. When something is neutrally buoyant, that means it has roughly the same density as water, causing it to float half way between the bottom and the surface. Finally, when something is not buoyant (like a rock), that means that it has a higher density than water, causing it to sink to the bottom.
yes
I went to test the buoyancy of a piece of paper and a brick and found that the brick was not buoyant, but the paper was

Yes, hot air, helium, and hydrogen balloons are naturally buoyant in the atmosphere, which is composed primarily of gas.
A waftage is the conveyance of something on a buoyant medium, such as air or water.
For one, buoyancy has to do with how dense something is, that's why ships are hollow.
buoyant means something floats on water.....
weightless, floating, unsinkable, afloat, airy, supernatant
