Then what about a different container, like a box, resting on the bottom of a pool? the face in contact with the surface of the pool will have no water pushing upwards, so will it remain down?
Greetings,
I have a question about the classic Archimede's principle.
A ball inflated with air will not sink into water. My understanding is that it will be pushed from all directions by the surrounding water trying to fill the space occupied by the ball. So there will be a pressure downwards...
