Figure 1 shows a toy wooden block floating in a beaker of water, and the same block floating in a beaker of cooking oil.

Figure 1: Two diagrams showing a wooden block floating in two different liquids. The left diagram shows the block floating in water, with a smaller portion of the block submerged below the surface line. The right diagram shows the same block floating in cooking oil, with a larger portion of the block submerged below the surface line.

Compare the upthrust on the wooden block in water with the upthrust on the same block in cooking oil.
