\lceil n/k \rceil

If n items go into k containers, some container holds at least this many.

F_b = \rho g V

Buoyant force equals the weight of fluid displaced.

P + \tfrac{1}{2}\rho v^2 + \rho g h = \text{const}

Faster-moving fluid has lower pressure (energy conservation in flow).

\Delta x \, \Delta p \ge \frac{\hbar}{2}

Position and momentum cannot both be known with unlimited precision.

F_b = \rho V g

Buoyant force equals the weight of displaced fluid.

\Delta P = \text{transmitted equally}

Pressure applied to a confined fluid transmits undiminished.

F_b = \rho g V

Buoyant force equals weight of displaced fluid.

\Delta x\,\Delta p \geq \frac{\hbar}{2}

Limit on knowing position and momentum together.
