Overview

Buoyancy force is the upward force exerted on an object immersed in a fluid, equal to the weight of fluid displaced by the object (Archimedes' principle).

Variables

Symbol	Description	Unit
$F_b$	Buoyancy force	N
$\rho_f$	Fluid density	kg/m³
$V$	Displaced volume	m³
$g$	Gravitational acceleration	m/s²

Formula

$F_b = \rho_f \cdot V \cdot g$
