  • Archimedes’ principle: A ship floating on water must displace an amount of water equal in weight to the ship. A smaller amount of salt water is required since it is heavier.
  • Buoyancy effect: The ship will rise higher since a smaller portion of the ship needs to be below water to generate the required buoyant force.
