Is Buoyancy an upward force exerted by a fluid on a body placed in the fluid?

False. It is an upward force, that (partly) counteracts the downward force of gravity for objects within a liquid. It is related to the resistance (to displacement) by the liquid molecules.


What is the upward force on objects in a fluid?

bouyancy


What is the pressure exerted by a fluid is the total force exerted by the fluid divide by?

area


What is the force that pushes up on an object in a liquid?

That force is bouyancy. Bouyancy is also present in a gas, but its effects are usually negligible except on objects with very low densities.


What is the fluid that nourishes the brainexcretes waste provides cushion and bouyancy to the brain?

cerebrospinal fluid


What is a upward force exerted on objects in a fluid?

The upward force exerted on an object in a fluid is buoyancy.


The force of a fluid that pushes an object up is called?

bouyancy or upthrust


In which direction is pressure exerted in a fluid at rest?

If its in a container, pressure is downward and outward due to gravity and confinement respectively. If its on a flat surface without confinement, the pressure is exerted downwards on the surface and the boundaries are held by a combination of adhesion and cohesion.


What does bernoulli's principle say about the pressure exerted by a moving fluids?

Bernoulli's principle states that as the speed of a moving fluid increases, the pressure exerted by the fluid decreases.


What is bouyont force?

It is the force exerted by a fluid equivalent to the weight of fluid that has been displaced by the substance that has immersed in it. A boat floats in water because the weight of water displaced by the boat is greater than the weight of the boat. Weight depends very much on Gravity and so if there is no gravity (such as objects in orbit) there can be no bouyancy effects either.


What objects are of neutral bouyancy?

The question makes no sense. Objects are buoyant in a surrounding fluid; change the fluid, change their buoyancy.


What force is the upward force exerted on any object in a fluid?

The upward force exerted on an object in a fluid is buoyancy.
