This has been answered in a recent question.
The upward force equals the weight of the liquid that could have occupied the volume of the object below the surface.
If it were not so, then imagine what would happen if you could instantaneously remove the object and refill the space left with liquid ... that liquid would either sink or be ejected.
For a ship this upward force balances the total weight of the ship. The ship sinks deeper into the water until the volume below the surface represents an amount of water with the same weight as the ship.
So a ship floats deeper in water than it would in Mercury, because much less mercury needs to be displaced to match the ship's weight.

What is buoyancy factor of steel in sea water?
The buoyancy factor of steel in seawater is less than 1, meaning steel will sink in seawater due to its high density. The exact buoyancy factor will depend on the specific composition and weight of the steel. Additional factors such as surface area and volume will also influence the buoyancy of steel in seawater.
How does the buoyancy of an object depend on it's density?
The buoyancy of an object depends on its density compared to the density of the fluid it is submerged in. If the object's density is less than the fluid, it will float; if the density is greater, it will sink. The lower the density of the object, the higher the buoyant force acting on it.
What does buoyancy force depend on?
The buoyancy force depends on the density of the fluid, the volume of the object submerged in the fluid, and the acceleration due to gravity. This force is also influenced by the Archimedes' principle, which states that the buoyant force acting on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.
What are three types of buoyancy?
Three types of buoyancy are positive buoyancy, negative buoyancy, and neutral buoyancy. Positive buoyancy occurs when an object is lighter than the fluid it displaces, causing it to float. Negative buoyancy happens when an object is heavier than the fluid it displaces, causing it to sink. Neutral buoyancy is when an object has the same density as the fluid it displaces, resulting in it neither sinking nor floating.
Could you find a scientific sentence with the word buoyancy?
We are merely testing the buoyancy of several types of ping pong balls.
What are two factors that depend buoyancy?
volume and weight

What controls buoyancy?
It is the ability for an object to float. Buoyancy determines if the object is able to float in the water or not.Buoyancy can not only happen in water, other fluids are not prohibited. Buoyancy can depend on the fluid's density.If something is not or barely able to float, it is less buoyant.If something can float with little or no effort, it is more buoyant.
What is buoyancy controlled?

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 are three types of buoyancy?
Three types of buoyancy are positive buoyancy, negative buoyancy, and neutral buoyancy. Positive buoyancy occurs when an object is lighter than the fluid it displaces, causing it to float. Negative buoyancy happens when an object is heavier than the fluid it displaces, causing it to sink. Neutral buoyancy is when an object has the same density as the fluid it displaces, resulting in it neither sinking nor floating.
Does freshwater have buoyancy?
Yes, all fluids have buoyancy.
What does buoyancy help with?
High buoyancy=easy to float
How do i know if you have positive or neutral buoyancy?
You can determine your buoyancy by observing whether you float, sink, or stay suspended in water. If you float on the water's surface, you have positive buoyancy. If you sink, you have negative buoyancy. When you remain suspended at a certain depth, your buoyancy is neutral.
