What is the force that works against buoyancy?

Buoyant force works against the force of pulling.


What is the force that acts against gravity?

The force that acts against gravity is the buoyant force.


What is 1 force that buoyant works against?

the force of gravity


Why does buoyant force act upward on an object submerged in water?

The greater the pressure against the bottom of a submerged object produces an upward buoyant force


How does the buoyant force affect a submerged object?

If the weight of the object is higher than the buoyant force the object SINKS. And the opposite happens if the weight is lower than the buoyant force. If it is equal, the object neither sink nor float, it is neutrally buoyant.


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.


How do sea animal use buoyant force?

they use it to stay underwater without going up out of the water. They have adapted to 'float' in the water against the buoyant force.


How could you determine buoyant force?

The bouyant force acts in an upward direction against gravity. It keeps things from sinking.


What is the relationship between buoyant force and gravity?

buoyant force is always or equal to the force exerted by gravity. that's why an object floats.


Is the buoyant force of a metal equal to the buoyant force of a wood that has the same mass?

Buoyant force is based upon the mass of the water displaced. Therefore, two objects will have the same buoyant force if they have the some volumes.


What is an buoyant force?

A buoyant force equals the weight of the fluid being displaced


What is the relationship of buoyant force and density of liquid?

Buoyant force is directly proportional to the density of the liquid. as the density of the liquid increases, the Buoyant force increases.
