What is the ability of a liquid to exert an upward force on an object?

"buoyancy"


What is apparent weight?

Apparent weight of an object is the weight of an object when the object is partially or totally immersed in a fluid{liquid/gas} normally apparent weight of an object is less than the real weight of an object due to an upward force {upthrust} which is produced by the pressure difference inside the fluids.

The ability of a fluid a liquid or a gas to exert an upward force on an object immersed in it?

Buoyancy.


A movie is made showing successive frames for an object accelerating downward. If the sequence is run backward would the object accelerate upward or downward?

UPWARD UPWARD UPWARD


If the air moves faster above an object does the pressure push the object upward or downward?

upward


If the air moves faster above an object does pressure push the object upward or downward?

upward


If the air moves faster below an object does pressure push the object upward or downward?

upward


When the buoyant force on a submerged object is more than the weight of the object?

The net force on the object is upward, so the object accelerates upward in the fluid.


Tell a little about buoyancy?

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 is the effect of water on object submerged in water?

It is named as buoyant force which always acts in the upward direction ie opposite to the weight of the body. So actual weight appears to be reduced. Hence apparent weight loss
