Abstract
An extraneous magnetized body, either a flux tube or a plasmoid, immersed in the solar atmosphere is subjected to a hydromagnetic buoyancy force. It results from the peripheral inhomogeneity of ambient hydromagnetic pressure, which is caused or enhanced by the presence of the extraneous body. This extra-caused force acts at various mass elements of the immersed body through its distribution as a nearly uniform force density, just like the gravitational force. Since hydromagnetic buoyancy force comprises hydrostatic buoyancy force, hydrodynamic lift force, and magnetostatic diamagnetic force, this constitutes a magnetohydrodynamic generalization of Archimedes' principle which deals with hydrostatic buoyancy force.
