FALSE
The buoyant force on an object submerged in a fluid is caused by the pressure difference between the top and bottom of the object. To overcome the gravitational force, the buoyant force acts in the upward direction. The larger pressure at greater depth pushes upward on the object.
Consider a submerged object for simplicity. Basically the buoyant force is caused by the difference between the pressure on the object's bottom part and its top part - since lower in a fluid, there is more pressure.
Water pressure is greatest against the bottom of a submerged object?
Forces are exerted on a submerged object due to water pressure not being balanced due to buoyancy. This is when the pressure at the bottom of the submerged object is greater than the fluid on the top of the object, thus projecting the object upward.
