...these. After enunciating the well-known principle of Archimedes as to the fact that every immersed body is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the volume of displaced water and acting vertically upward at the center of gravity, M. Noalhat proceeds to consider...

...name of its discoverer, Archimedes, (287 to 212 B. c.), and may be thus stated : a solid immersed in a fluid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced. The difference between the weight of a body and the buoyant force of a fluid...

...the cube. This truth, discovered by Archimedes, may be enunciated as follows : A body submerged in a fluid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by it. 165. Experimental Proof. — Exp. — Procure a solid metallic cylinder...

...in water displaces its own volume of water. It is a well-known physical fact that a body so immersed is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the volume of water displaced. If then a body is "weighed," ie, its mass determined, and then weighed again while...

...principle applies to gases as well. as liquids, it may be stated generally as follows : A body immersed in a fluid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by it. The centre of buoyancy is the name applied to the centre of mass of the...
