If the mass and volume are known, the density can be calculated. This principle underlies the determination of body fatness through underwater weighing.A fundamental principle that establishes a connection between buoyancy and displacement proclaims that when a body is submerged in water, the reduction in weight is precisely proportional to the magnitude of the water displaced by the body."}
