Buoyancy stability
Storyboard
The force generated by buoyancy acts at the center of the displaced volume, which is typically lower than the center of mass of the object in the water. This pair of forces results in torques that can either stabilize or destabilize the object. In the latter case, it may even end up overturning. This principle applies to both inanimate objects and living organisms, which, due to illnesses, may struggle to maintain a vertical position.
