Who was the Greek scientist who proved that if an object is submerged in a fluid or a liquid then there is an upthrust or upward force from the liquid acts on the object and the object ways less?

How do you determine the buoyancy of an object?
Any object wholly or partially submerged in a fluid experiences an upthrust equal in magnitude to the mass of the fluid displaced by that object. This is known as Archimedes' Principle. Archimedes also stated that for an object floating on a liquid, the weight of the displaced liquid is the weight of the object.
What does a submerged object displace?
a submerged object displaces liquid which is equal to its volume
When will an object float in a liquid?
An object will float in a liquid when the density of the liquid is higher than that of the object or when equal. That is to say Upthrust= or >weight of the object
A completely submerged object displaces it own?
A submerged object will displace its own volume of the liquid it is submerged in.
Why does bouyant force act upward on an object submerged in water?
Upthrust which is equal to weight of fluid displaced

A submerged object will displace its own volume of the liquid it is submerged in.
Can upthrust act at a distance?
N o! the upthrust can not act at a distance because it acts on the centre of gravity of the object submerged in water in the opposite direction of weight.
Why does bouyant force act upward on an object submerged in water?
Upthrust which is equal to weight of fluid displaced
The net upward force that a liquid exerts on a submerged object is?
The upward force exerted by a liquid on a submerged object (or even on a floating object) is called buoyancy.
What is upthrust force in physics?
When an object enters a liquid, this is the upward force.
UPTHRUST?
An upward force acting on an object immersed in a liquid or gas. [NOT SOLID]
What is meant by upthrust or by buoyant force?
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
Whats the definition for upthrust?
The definition for: Upthrust is a force that helps something float. An object that is partly, or completely, submerged experiences a greater pressure on its bottom surface than on its top surface.
Is upthrust stronger than gravity?
It depends on the object's shape and its density and that of the liquid in which it is put.
