The pressure of a liquid acts in all directions. The "buoyant force" is upwards; it is the net force related to the fact that at the bottom of a fluid, the pressure is higher than at the top.

Why does pressure act equally in all directions?

Pressure acts equally in all directions due to the random motion of particles in a fluid. When a force is applied to a fluid, the particles transmit this force in all directions, leading to equal pressure exerted on all surfaces in contact with the fluid. This is known as Pascal's principle.

What is the force exerted by air in all directions?

The force exerted by air in all directions is called air pressure. It is caused by the collisions of air molecules with surfaces. Air pressure is exerted equally in all directions and decreases as altitude increases.


Why does fluid pressure is exerted evenly in all directions?

Fluid pressure is exerted evenly in all directions due to the ability of fluid particles to easily move and distribute the force applied to them. When a force is applied to a fluid, it is transmitted equally in all directions as the fluid particles can freely move and transfer the force throughout the fluid. This results in an even distribution of pressure in all directions within the fluid.

Its not a force but the answer is pressure. PRESSURE. (:


In what direction does liquid exert force?

Liquid exerts force in all directions due to its property of fluidity. This is known as hydrostatic pressure, which is the pressure exerted by a liquid at rest. The force is distributed evenly in all directions within the liquid.


Does all liquids exert the same bouyant force?

No. Fluids with higher density produce higher buoyant force.


What force pushes on rocks from different not opposite directions?

Shearing is the force that pushes rocks from different but not opposite directions. Secondary waves, S waves are all names for the shearing.


What is the diffence between balanced and unbalanced force?

There is no such thing as a balanced force or an unbalanced force. A groupof two or more forces may be balanced or unbalanced. The group of forces isbalanced if the vector sum of all the forces in the group is zero.


Does the buoyant force act in all directions?

Yes, but any bit of force in any horizontal direction is always exactly cancelled by an equal-size bit of force in the opposite horizontal direction, so there's never a NET horizontal buoyant force. It's only apparent in the upward vertical direction.


What direction do the gravitational forces act?

they not only push down on you but they push you from all directions
