The idea of science and buoyancy has a multifaceted depth. There are different factors that play into them, the season, the type of water, even the specific oceans differ the science behind it. Within the idea of buoyancy, you think of ships. This is where we introduce learning plimsoll lines. This article explains exactly what a plimsoll line is and how it is used in the different aspects that were explained before.
