Fluids, Buoyancy, and Archimedes' Principle

The video tutorial introduces the concept of fluids, distinguishing them from solids based on particle movement. It explains key fluid properties like density and buoyancy, using Archimedes' principle to illustrate why objects float or sink. The principle states that an object submerged in a fluid experiences an upward buoyant force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced. This concept is exemplified by the floating of a cruise ship and Archimedes' historical Eureka moment, highlighting the relationship between volume displacement and buoyancy.

Describe the relationship between the volume of water displaced and the volume of an object submerged.
