Under what conditions will a body float when submerged in water?
Under what conditions will a body float when submerged in water?
- When tension force is greater than weight
- When weight is greater than buoyant force

What is the characteristic property of upthrust related to the volume of the body submerged in fluid?
What is the characteristic property of upthrust related to the volume of the body submerged in fluid?
- Larger the volume of the body, lower the upthrust
