Principle of conservation of angular momentum the total angular momentum of a system about an
rotation axis is constant if no external torque acts on the system.
Principle of Superposition
Whenever two or more waves are travelling in the same the same region ,the resultant displacement at any point is the vector sum of their individual displacement at the point

Archimedes's Principle
When a body partially or fully emerged in a fluid,the fluid exerts an upward (bouyant ) force on the body equal to the weight of the water displaced by the body
