What is Understanding Buoyancy Principles about?

Buoyancy is the upward force exerted by fluid that causes an object to float or sink. An object floats when the upward buoyant force is greater than the downward gravitational force, and sinks when the opposite is true. Neutral buoyancy occurs when the two forces are equal, such as when an object has the same density as the fluid. For a submarine or other underwater vehicle to operate effectively, it must maintain neutral buoyancy through control of ballast tanks that alter weight and displacement.
