Temperature affects the density of both the object and the fluid. As a fluid heats up, its molecules move faster, causing the fluid to expand and decrease in density. This decrease in fluid density results in a decrease in buoyant force. In contrast, a decrease in temperature causes the fluid to contract and increase in density, which increases the buoyant force. Objects in colder fluids may float more easily, and in warmer fluids, they may sink more easily.
