Answer:
Explanation:
Yes…it’s according to Archimedes principle which states that if a body is partially or fully immersed in a fluid then upward force (Buoyant force) acting on the body is equal to weight of the fluid displaced.
hence,
Mass of displaced water =(volume of displaced water )x (density of water)
And immersed body will displace volume of water equivalent to its own volume.
So volume of water = volumeof object
Hence Mass of water = volume of object x density of water
