As Archimedes' principle says, if you immerse a body in a liquid, it causes a push from the bottom upwards. It is the modern principle of feedback, of retraction, much more complex when the system in which changes are caused sets cross-feedbacks in motion. Thus, imbalances are created in search of new balances, that is, new problems in search of adequate solutions.
