Does Increased Pressure Affect Buoyancy?

[QUOTE="Charles Link, post: 6031713, member: 583509"] The buoyant force is the same for both. The second sphere will weigh more because it has more helium inside of it. The air supplies the buoyant force, which is equal to the weight of the air displaced by the sphere by Archimedes principle. The helium inside the metal sphere does not supply the buoyant force. A balloon filled with helium floats because the helium is lighter than the air that gets displaced. [/QUOTE]
