...they repel the water, heaping it up on each side, thus forming a cavity in the surface ; the needle is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid, and, when this exceeds the weight of the needle, it will float. It is on this principle that... | |

...principle, entirely analogous to the principle of AECHIMEDES : When a body is plunged into a gas, it is buoyed up by -a force equal to the weight -of the displaced gas. If the buoyant effort is greater than the weight of the body, the latter will rise ; if it is... | |

...and equal to the weight of the displaced liquid. Fig. 35. In other words " A body plunged into liquid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the displaced liquid, acting vertically upwards through the CG of this liquid." This Corollary is important as the first... | |

...sugar solutions is based on the well-known principle of Archimedes that a body immersed in a liquid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the displaced liquid. In making a determination, a glass sinker or bulb weighted with mercury is suspended from the arm of... | |

...use of standards of mass is the buoyancy or lifting effect of the air. A body immersed in any fluid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. Two bodies of equal mass, if placed one on each pan of an equal-arm balance, will balance each... | |
