When a body is immersed in a liquid name the two forces acting on it and state their direction of action?

The two forces acting on a body immersed in a liquid are buoyant force (upward direction) and gravitational force (downward direction). Buoyant force acts in the opposite direction to the gravitational force.

Buoyancy always acts in the direction opposite to the direction of the gravitational force. We normally consider this direction as 'upward'.


What will be the direction of charge if the gravitational force is equal to electrostatic force?

If the gravitational force is equal to the electrostatic force, the direction of the charge will depend on the relative signs of the charges. If the charges are of opposite sign, the direction will be attractive (towards each other), and if the charges are of the same sign, the direction will be repulsive (away from each other).


Is gravitational potential a scalal or vecror quantity?

Gravitational potential is a scalar quantity. It represents the amount of energy per unit mass at a point in a gravitational field. When considering gravitational potential, only the magnitude of the potential is important, not its direction.
