The same object is more buoyant in a denser fluid,

and is more likely to float, than in a less dense one.

That's why tennis balls float in water but not in air.

No. The buoyant force is the weight of the liquid that the object pushes aside.

That's the volume of the object, and doesn't depend at all on its weight.

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.


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.


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


The force that acts on objects immersed in or floating on a liquid?

Upthrust from the liquid.


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.


Does the buoyant force act in all ways?

No buoyant force would act only in the upward direction against the weight of the body as it gets immersed in the liquid.


Why does solid body weigh more in air than when immersed in a liquid?

the buoyant force of the liquid on the solid is more than the buoyant force of the air on the solid.


What is the effect of buoyant force on the weight of a body which is emerged in a liquid?

Buoyant force reduces the weight of the body


What does the Archimedes principles state?

When an object is immersed in a liquid, the liquid exerts a buoyant force on the object which is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by the object. This statement is known as Archimedes' Principle. When a solid body is immersed wholly or partially in a liquid, then there is same apparent loss in its weight. This loss in weight is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by the body. the bouyant force of an object equal to the weight of the fluid that the object displaced .


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

Not at all. (The buoyancy force equals the weight if the displaced water,)


How does an objects volume affect buoyancy?

If the mass stays the same, then when an object gets larger, its density decreases. The larger density=the more bouyancy


What is the magnitude of the buoyant force?

the simplest and the easiest method to find buoyant force is ................ just take a mug and dip it down to the bottom and now u will exert a vertically upward force this force is buoyant force. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When you have a body immersed in a liquid, the buoyant force the body will experience is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by the body which in place is equal to the volume of the body times the specific weight of the liquid. If the body floats on the surface of the liquid, the buoyant force equals the weight of the body and is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by the body. That's why when it is said that a given ship "displaces 500 tons" it means the ship weights 500 tons which at the same time is the weight of sea water the ship's hull displaces (when in sea water).
