Q: On the basis of buoyancy theory, the ship floats in water, which scientist is first credited with identifying this principle
  • A. Niles Bohr
  • B. Kepler
  • C. Archimedes
  • D. Ken Rutherford
Correct Answer: Option C - Ships float in water based on buoyancy theory. The credit for first identifying this principle goes to 'Archimedes'. According to Archimede's Principle the upward buoyant force that is exerted on a body immersed in a fluid, whether fully or partially submerged, is equal to weight of the fluid that of the body displaces. Niels Bohr - On the basis of quantum ideas, he explained the spectrum of hydrogen atom and presented a theory of nuclear fission. Kepler - Theory of motion of planets of solar system
