What is the unit of measure for buoyancy?

The buoyancy force acting on a body immersed in a liquid is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by it, or, in other words, the weight of the liquid that fills the volume occupied by the body immersed in the liquid.

F vyt = Vρg,

where V is the volume of the body (unit of measurement – m³), ρ is the density of the liquid (measured in kg / m³), g is the acceleration of gravity (its value is 9.8 m / s²).

Hence, the dimension F ext is understandable – (kg * m) / s², or N (newton is a unit of the measurement system, denoting the value of force).
