hydrometers

Featured Replies

I was just wondering the principle of a hydrometer. i know its based on Archimedes principle/ the law of flotation but i can't seem to understand how this explains the fact that for a denser liquid, the object is buoyed up more and in a less dense liquid it would sink more. i hope someone can help me clarify this. Thanks.
