How to calculate buoyant force simple
This calculator finds buoyant force using Archimedes' principle — the upward force a fluid exerts on a submerged or floating object.
How the calculation works
Buoyant force = Displaced fluid volume × Fluid weight per volume.
Example
0.02 m³ displaced in water (9,810 N/m³): 0.02×9,810 ≈ 196.2 N.
Frequently asked questions
How is Result calculated?
Result = [Displaced fluid volume] × [Fluid weight per volume].
Is the Buoyant Force Simple free to use?
Yes — every calculator on Simple Calculator Tools is free, runs in your browser, and does not require an account.
Buoyant Force Simple
Buoyant force = Displaced fluid volume × Fluid weight per volume.
Let's understand your buoyant force simple result.
Calculate a result above and this guide will help you interpret it using this calculator's own formula and explanation.
Pro Tips for Buoyant Force Simple
- Displaced volume equals the submerged volume of the object, not its total volume if it's floating.
- Fluid weight per volume differs by fluid — saltwater is denser than freshwater, for example.
Common Buoyant Force Simple Mistakes to Avoid
- Using the object's full volume instead of just the submerged portion for a floating (not fully submerged) object.
