    Question

    Archimedes' principle of buoyancy states that when a body is totally or partially immersed in a fluid, it is buoyed up by a force which equals to-

    A.

    Difference of weights of the fluid displaced and that of the body

    B.

    Weight of the body and fluid displaced by the body

    C.

    Weight of the fluid displaced by the body

    D.

    Weight of the body

    Correct option is C

    Archimedes' principle states that when a body is totally or partially immersed in a fluid, it experiences an upward buoyant force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the body. This principle explains why objects float or sink in fluids based on their density relative to the fluid.
