Buoyancy is a simple simulation that shows you when will objects float and when will they sink? Learn how buoyancy works with blocks.
Arrows show the applied forces, and you can modify the properties of the blocks and the fluid.

What`s New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· density: Removed 1 significant figure from lead and gold in the density table
· buoyancy: Changed the brick density from 1922 to 2000 so that the brick mass is exactly 10.0kg in the "same volume" mode
· buoyancy: Block labels ("A", "B") in the playground node are now behind force value readouts
· buoyancy: Removed fluid drag vector display
· Removed the 2L bottle
· buoyancy: Changed masses for the "Same Mass" and "Same Density" modes to round numbers.
· Fixed scale bug where it reported incorrect forces while being controlled by the user. This has a side-effect where the scale can be dragged into the ground, but will pop back into the scene when released.
