Buoyancy
it comes from a Spanish word 'boyar' ,float
this enables the object to float over a liquid
this was discovered by Archimedes
- therefore it is also known as Archimedes principle
eg: besides being haevy ships float on water
if the density of the object is more than the liquid,the object will sink
if the density of the object is less then the density of the liquid it will flat
if the density of the object is exactly same as the density of the liquid ,it will niether float nor sink
