Question

Buoyant force equals to the weight of displaced liquid.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

1. When a body is partly or completely immersed in water (or any other liquid), then according to Archimedes' principle.
2. Loss in weight of body = Weight of water (liquid) displaced by the body = Buoyant force or upthrust exerted by water (any liquid) on the body.
3. Hence, the relationship between the buoyant force and the weight of the liquid displaced is that they are equal.

Thus, the given statement is true.
