Do you look at enormous ships out at sea and wonder how it is possible that they can float?
This video explains how big ships float, giving an introduction to both buoyancy and flotation.
The basic concept is quite simple. Ships need to displace enough water to counter their own weight. If they weigh more than they displace, they will sink. If they displace the same as they weigh, they will float.
