Does the buoyant force on a submerged object depend on the weight of the object itself or on the weight of the fluid displaced by the object?
The upward bouyant force depends only on the weight of the displaced fluid. The NET force (object's weight - bouyant force) depends on the object's weight and will determine how fast it sinks.
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 boyant force?
Bouyant Force-is the upward force on a object in a fluid exerted by the surrounding fluid .
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
What is the upward force that acts on an object that is submerged in a fluid?
buoyant force

This force describes how water exerts an upward force on submerged objects?
This is called a "bouyant" force. It is due to the difference in water pressure between the top of the object and the bottom of the object. Water pressure increases with depth.
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.

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

Does the bouyant force on a submerged object depend on the weight of the object?
No, but the difference between the buoyant force and the weight of the object will determine whether it floats or sinks.
What is the upward force that acts on an object that is submerged in a fluid?
buoyant force
When the buoyant force on a submerged object is more than the weight of the object?
The net force on the object is upward, so the object accelerates upward in the fluid.
When the bouyant force is greater than the force of gravity an object will?
Float. Essentially, an upward force is larger than the downward force, therefore the upward force wins.
An upward force exerted by a fluid on a submerged object?
buoyancy
What is the upward force on an object submerged in a fluid called?
buoyancy
Why is there an upward force on objects in fluid?
Gravity pulls both the fluid and the submerged object downward. The difference between the gravitational attractive forces on the fluid and the submerged object describes the upward (buoyant) force that the fluid exerts on the object.
