Question

Archimedes' principle states that

• A. Weight of liquid displaced ($W$) = Upthrust $\left(U\right)$
• B. $W<U$
• C. $W>U$
• D. Any of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Weight of liquid displaced ($W$) = Upthrust $\left(U\right)$

1. Archimedes' principle states that “The upward buoyant force that is exerted on a body immersed in a fluid, whether partially or fully submerged, is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces and acts in the upward direction at the center of mass of the displaced fluid”.
2. 

Hence, option (A) is correct.
