In fluid mechanics, displacement occurs when an object is immersed in a fluid, pushing it out of the way and taking its place. The volume of the fluid displaced can then be measured, and from this the volume of the immersed object can be deduced (the volume of the immersed object will be equal to the volume of the displaced fluid). The amount of fluid displaced is directly related (via Archimedes' Principle) to its weight.
