General Information on Buoyancy
Due to the upward buoyant force, the reduced weight force of the body initially acts on the scale, causing it to momentarily become unbalanced.
The buoyant force acting on the body, which is fully submerged in the glass of water, is equal to the weight force of the water displaced by the body. Since this exact amount of water flows into the second glass on the balance beam, equilibrium is restored.
