Hence the buoyant force makes the weight of bucket feel lesser and the weight is now called apparent weight. The net loss in weight is equal to weight of the volume of water displaced...

It is because a buoyant force acts on bucket as long as it is in water.
Comments

When the bucket full of water is immersed in water it displaces volume of water equal to its volume and hence the apparent weoght is only the weight of bucket. When the bucket is out of water the weight is weight of bucket plus the weight of water. Therefore it shall weigh more

due to buoyant force acting on the bucket of water in the upwards direction opposite to weight of bucket .Hence due to this the net force in the vertical direction is less hence we can easily lift the bucket
Comments

It is because when the bucket is in water it experiences an extra upward force known as the buoyant force. This reduces the effort or the force a person has to apply to lift the bucket while it is in water.
