WHAT IS ARCHIMEDE’s PRINCIPLE ???

IT STATES THAT WHEN AN OBJECT IS IMMERSED IN A LIQUID THEN THE APPARENT LOSS OF WEIGHT OR THE BUOYANT FORCE IS EQUAL TO THE VOLUME

OF WATER DISPLACED BY AN OBJECT....

SO THE QUESTION ARISES WHY A SOLID NAIL

SINK IN WATER WHILE A HUGE SOLID BOAT 

FLOAT IN WATER????

IT ALSO FOLLOW ARCHIMEDE’s PRINCIPLE AS HE STATES THAT BUOYANT FORCE IS EQUAL TO THE VOLUME OF WATER DISPLACE BY AN OBJECT....

BUOYANT FORCE IS AN UPTHURST FORCE PROVIDED BY THE WATER TO THE OBJECT...

IN NAIL CASE ITS DENSITY IS MORE THAN WATER AND DISPLACE LESS WATER ...

BUT IN BOAT CASE ITS DENSITY IS LESS THAN WATER AND DISPLACE AND DISPLACE MORE WATER....
