Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The weight of a body in water is one third of its weight in air.
Detailed explanation-2: -For example, a heavy bag resting on a bed pushes on the bed because of its downward weight force and the bed pushes back up on the bag with a balancing force as it is squashed under the load. All objects undergo some squashing (compression) or stretching and change shape when a force is applied to them.
