Best Answer

When an object is placed in water it experiences Buoyancy force. The magnitude of force is equal to the weight of water displaced and direction is perpendicular to free surface.

Buoyancy is felt due to unequal amount of forces on upper and lower surface of object. Buoyancy force will not be felt in space.. This is not true, it can be felt if the water container is accelerating.

How is buoyancy and Archimedes principle related?

Fluid pressure is higher with increase in depth. Pressure that is increased is felt from all directions. This leads to buoyancy or the upward force on the submerged object. This is related to the Archimedes Principle that the buoyant force on an object is equal to the displaced weight of the water.

What is the direct object in the sentence- The soapy water felt very hot?

In the sentence The soapy water felt very hot there is no object, either direct or indirect. (Obviously, there are some unconventional grammars such as Charles Fillmore's case grammar, where The soapy water might at a pinch be interpreted as a semantic object, but I can't imagine that is what your teacher wants).


What is force felt by an accelerating object equal to?

the rate of acceleration depends on mass and force , in the equation a= f/m ie halve the mass = twice the acceleration double the force = twice the acceleration


If you can't see force how do you knows it is there?

The amount of force an object experiences can either be felt, or it can be measured using one of the various methods that have been developed in the twentieth century.


How long does it take for felt to fall?

It depends from how high and the weight of it but the acceleration will be 9.8m/s2 if gravity is the only force acting upon the object.


What is drag and how is it related to velocity?

Drag is the force exerted by a fluid stream on any obstacle in its path or felt by an object moving through a fluid.


How are contact forces and action-at-a-distance forces different?

A contact force is one where the force is only felt when two objects are in contact with each other, such as friction. On the other hand, distant forces are felt even though the objects are not in contact with each other, such as gravity and magnetic forces.
