What is buyont force?

As a body gets immersed in the liquid then equal volume of the liquid is displaced. The weight of this displaced liquid would offer an upward force tending to push the immersed body out of the liquid. This force is known to be BUOYANT FORCE.


What is the name of the force exerted by fluid on objects immersed in it?

Bouyant force


Does the weight of an object immersed in a buoyant liquid affect the buoyant force on the object?

It is not the weight of the immersed object but the volume of the object would affect the buoyant force on the immersed object because the buoyant force is nothing but the weight of the displaced liquid whose volume is equal to that of the immersed object.

What is the force called that is exerted by a fluid that has objects immersed in it?

Buoyant force, buoyancy force, buoyancy.


What is the force that determines whether or not the object will float?

It it not about force. It is about Density. If a Solid object is denser than the liquid you place it in,it will sink . If it is less Dense than the liquid , it will float. All objects immersed in a liquid, experience an upthrust equal to the weight of the fluid which is displaced.


Why does a buoyant force act on every object in Fluid?

Buoyant force is defined as the upward force exerted by a liquid, gas or other fluid, that opposes the weight of an immersed object. According to Archimedes' principle, the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the objects. Because all of the objects displace the fluid, buoyant force acts on all of them.


The force exerted by a liquid on an immersed in it is called?

"What is the force exerted by a still liquid on an immersed non-moving object called? -- PressureOtherwise, if the object is moving, one could also have "shear forces".


What is meant by upthrust or by buoyant force?

When an object is immersed in liquid then an equal volume of liquid would be displaced to the upper surface. The weight of this expelled liquid would be used as a force to push up the immersed object. Hence it is named as upthrust or buoyant force


When a body is immersed in liquid the force acting on it are?

buoyancy and its weight downward
