v Buoyancy: The buoyant force that acts in the direction opposite to the force of gravity so it makes an object feel and seem lighter  Buoyancy is the force that keeps this Container ship floating with tons of Cargo on its Decks and allows it to stay. Submarines operate upon the principals of buoyancy thus by changing the buoyancy of the submarine you can “sink” and or float the submarine.

In nature there are many subjects who do use the principal of buoyancy in their lives and everyday; Examples are……  <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16pt; line-height: 115%; margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">Japanese Man of War (less than water)................. Sea Turtle (equal to water)

When you go down further you experience more pressure. The reason a rock sinks and a beach ball floats is that water has density, and other objects can match it or be more than it. Density is the concentration of particles inside of an object and if it is more than 1g/cm₃ it will sink and remain at the bottom of the body of water that it is inside. If an object is less than that then it will float like the jellyfish.** media type="custom" key="8012542" width="110" height="110" align="left" media type="custom" key="8023190" width="110" height="110"
