Calculate the buoyant force acting on an object submerged in a fluid using Archimedes' principle. This calculator determines whether objects float or sink and is essential for naval architecture.
Enter your values below
Density of the fluid
Volume of fluid displaced by the object
Acceleration due to gravity
How this calculator works
The buoyant force equals the density of the fluid times the volume of displaced fluid times gravitational acceleration.
