What else can I help you with?
Buoyancy is a force that always acts in an?
Buoyancy always acts in the direction opposite to the direction of the gravitational force. We normally consider this direction as 'upward'.
What is an upward force?
It is a force which acts in the upward direction.
Which direction does up thrust act in?
Upthrust, also known as buoyancy force, acts opposite to the direction of gravity. It pushes objects upward when they are submerged in a fluid, such as water.
What is upward force of water or air is called?
The upward force of water or air is called buoyant force. This force acts in the opposite direction to the force of gravity and helps objects float or rise in a fluid medium.
What is the force that acts in an upward direction against the force of gravity so it makes an object lighter?
The force that acts in an upward direction to counteract the force of gravity and make an object feel lighter is called buoyancy. This force is exerted by a fluid (such as air or water) on an object immersed in it, pushing the object in the opposite direction of gravity.
What is upward gravitational force?
Upward gravitational force is a force that acts in the opposite direction to the force of gravity. It is the force exerted by a surface to support an object and prevent it from falling due to gravity.
When a body is immersed in a liquid name the two forces acting on it and state their direction of action?
The two forces acting on a body immersed in a liquid are buoyant force (upward direction) and gravitational force (downward direction). Buoyant force acts in the opposite direction to the gravitational force.
The force of a fluid that pushes an object up is called?
Buoyant force. It is the upward force exerted by a fluid on an object submerged in it, which acts in the opposite direction to the force of gravity.
What is a force that acts in an upward direction that opposes the downward force of an object?
The force that opposes a downward force on an object would be called the "normal force". For example, it is as a result of the normal force that people do not fall though the ground the same way that they fall through the air.
Why does buoyant force act upward?
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.
Is bouyant force a scalar or vector?
It's a vector, and I believe it always points upward.
What is boyant force?
Buoyant force is the upward force exerted by a fluid (such as water or air) on an object submerged in it. It is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object and acts in the opposite direction to gravity, helping objects float.
