TOPIC :
1. List one or two authoritative sources for this topic here. Example: Hewitt, Conceptual Physics (book), p. 55.
Example: Encyclopedia Britannica (online).
2. State how this topic relates to your experiment or research. Example: My experiment considers how objects are suspended in saline solutions, and buoyancy explains this process.
3. Summarize this topic in one or two sentences. Example: Buoyancy is the upward pressure on a submerged object because of displaced water. The volume of displaced water determines the buoyant force.
