A body of density twice the density of water is first weighed in water and then in glycerine of density 1.3gm/cc. In which case the body appears to be lighter?

Why does ice float over water?

Does the force of buoyancy depend upon the mass of the body?

What are the factors on which the buoyant force depends?
