Buoyancy is the upward force on an object produced by surrounding liquids or gas in which it's immersed due to pressure difference of the fluid between the top and bottom of the object. (ability of an object to float in a liquid) (upward force that keeps an object afloat) For an object to float it needs to have a lesser density then water If an object weighs more than it's buoyancy it sinks, if it weighs less, it floats.

What controls buoyancy?

It is the ability for an object to float. Buoyancy determines if the object is able to float in the water or not.Buoyancy can not only happen in water, other fluids are not prohibited. Buoyancy can depend on the fluid's density.If something is not or barely able to float, it is less buoyant.If something can float with little or no effort, it is more buoyant.

What kind of buoyancy do submarines have when they are resting on the surfce of the ocean?

Positive Buoyancy. When submarine submerges, it initially uses negative buoyancy to submerge, and then levels out to neutral buoyancy.

How can buoyancy be demonstrated?

buoyancy can be demonstrated if you float something because buoyancy is when something floats for example a boat floating in water


How do you use buoyancy?

Buoyancy is what keeps a boat floating on the top of the water. Buoyancy is what makes a helium balloon float in the air.
