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

What is the difference between thrust and upthrust?
Thrust is the only perpendicular force but upthrust is the force which act on a body when is in drown vessel
How strong is buoyant force?
It depends on Boyle's Law - the upthrust depends on the weight of fluid displaced. Law - the upthrust equals the weight of fluid displaced.
Will a submarine sink or float when its weight is greater than the upthrust acting on it?
When the weight of any object surrounded by fluid is greater than the buoyant force on it, it sinks. (The buoyant force is just the weight of the fluid that would be in that space if the submerged object were not there.)
Is upthrust contact force?
Upthrust is a Contact Force. :)
Research that its easier to lift an object in water than in air?
when a body is immersed in a fluid,it experiencednan upward force called upthrust or buoyant force due to the liquid.It is this force that pushes the body up and supports it.
What is the cause of buoyant force?
simply...UPTHRUST
How can the unit of upthrust can be derived?
Pascal is the s.i unit of upthrust
What are factors affecting upthrust?
upthrust=buoyant force=weight of the body immersed in d liquid so gravity and mass is a cause of upthrust as weight of a body=mass* gravity
What is the difference between thrust and upthrust?
Thrust is the only perpendicular force but upthrust is the force which act on a body when is in drown vessel
Why is the upthrust not dependent on mass of liquid?
The buoyant force depends on the volume and density of the displaced liquid.
How strong is buoyant force?
It depends on Boyle's Law - the upthrust depends on the weight of fluid displaced. Law - the upthrust equals the weight of fluid displaced.

What does up-thrust mean?
It is one of the forces it lifts it up
Is upthrust contact force?
Upthrust is a Contact Force. :)

What does upthrust maen?
upthrust means the force that keeps the force up
Is upthrust contact or non contact force?
Upthrust is a contact force :)
