Upthrust cancels weight out, weight is there but you do not feel it.

What are factors affecting upthrust?
upthrust=buoyant force=weight of the body immersed in d liquid so gravity and mass is a cause of upthrust as weight of a body=mass* gravity
What happens to the body when the upthrust is less than the weight of the object'?
An object that is COMPLETELY submerged in water has its Upthrust equal its weight, but it doesn't necessarily float, an object could be at the rock-bottom of the ocean, and it would still have its upthrust equal to its weight. This is because the upthrust is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced, and so while the objects volume remains constant, and assuming the density of the fluid it displaces is constant.. The upthrust remains constant, this is unless the object compresses and has its density altered.. I know I didn't directly answer your question, but I hope this helps.. Even if a little.
How would the density of the air over the ocean compare to the density of the air over the nearby land?

How does a hydrometer measure density?
It measured by the density of the size from the hydrometer.
Can a nail float in water?
The nail sinks in water because the gravitational force attracts it downward toward the earth, there is an upthrust of water on the nail which pushes it upwards but, the downward force acting on the nail is greater that the upward force. Hence, the nail sinks in water. The density of the iron nail is more than that of the water, this means that the upthrust of water on the iron nail is less than the weight of the nail, so it sinks. The cork floats while nail sinks this happens because of the difference in their densities. The density of a substance is defined as the mass per unit volume. The density of the cork is less than the density of water. This mean the upthrust of the cork is greater than the weight of the cork. The density of the iron nail is more than that of the water, this means that the upthrust of water on the iron nail is less than the weight of the nail, so it sinks.
What effect does the temperature of water have on the upthrust of the water on a ship?
when water is heated, its density decreases because the molecules move farther away . as we know,upthrust in a liquid is directly propotional to its density ,the upthrust decreases
How did Archimedes discover upthrust?
No he discovered density
Compare two populations in terms of size density and dispersion?
The US has a size density of 110,000 and a dispersion of 310,346,000, China has a size density of 541,200 and a dispersion of 1,339,710,000.
What are factors affecting upthrust?
upthrust=buoyant force=weight of the body immersed in d liquid so gravity and mass is a cause of upthrust as weight of a body=mass* gravity
How can you compare the size of cities?
Geographic area size & population count for density.
What are the reason why some things float in the water?
Certain things float in water because their density is less than the density of water. If something experiences more upthrust in water than its weight(upthrust>weight) or upthrust=weight, then it floats in water.
How do you work out upthrust?
it equals weight, which is density*volume*9.81
How is the upthrust related to volume of the body submerged in a liquid?
The upthrust is the volume, multiplied by the weight density of the liquid in which it is submerged - or the volume, times the mass density of the liquid, times the gravitational field.
How does upthrust vary liquid of different densities?
if a substance has more particles in a smaller space (higher density), then the substance can be less easily displaced and has a higher upthrust
Is upthrust stronger than gravity?
It depends on the object's shape and its density and that of the liquid in which it is put.
Do boats float better on fresh water or salt water?
The floating or sinking of an object depends on the upthrust force the water exerts on the object. By Archmides' principle, Upthrust Force = (Density of Liquid) * (Volume of Liquid Displaced by the object) therefore the upthrust force depends on the density of the liquid, and as salt water has a larger density than fresh water, boats should float better on salt water.
Why is the upthrust not dependent on mass of liquid?
The buoyant force depends on the volume and density of the displaced liquid.
