What object makes objects float?
Buoyancy. Upthrust is not a word; however, buoyancy can be described incorrectly as an upwards thrust. More so buoyancy is a force or action. Not a thrust of any kind.
Why the center of pressure of a submerged body lies below the center of gravity?
The upward thrust which the surrounding fluid exerts on an object is referred to as the force of buoyancy. This thrust acts through the centroid of the displaced volume, referred to as the centre of buoyancy. The centre of buoyancy is not the same as the centre of gravity which relates to the distribution of weight within the object. If the object is a solid with a uniform density exactly the same as water and the body is immersed in water the force of buoyancy will be exactly equal to the weight and the centre of buoyancy will be the same as the centre of gravity. The object will be in equilibrium with the surrounding fluid.
Was buoyancy always called buoyancy?
yes, it is the same.
What is the scientific definition of a buoyant force?
Buoyancy is an upward thrust or force exerted by a fluid , that opposes an object's weight.
Is gravity and buoyancy the same size?
Neither gravity nor buoyancy have dimensions (size).
What force does a boat use?
up thrust gravity buoyancy density

What is the force in water which pushes upward?
Buoyancy
What is gained by the upward thrust of the water?
Buoyancy is gained.

What is buoyancy in plants?
Buoyancy is nothing related to plants. It is the property of a fluid to exert an upward thrust on a body emerged into it .
Was buoyancy always called buoyancy?
yes, it is the same.
What is the scientific definition of a buoyant force?
Buoyancy is an upward thrust or force exerted by a fluid , that opposes an object's weight.
What is buoyancy force?
Buoyancy is an upward acting force. It is caused by fluid preassure which opposes an objects weight ( their gravitational pull downwards ).
What force stops a plastic bottle full of air from being pushed in the water?
density water's density is 1.00 g/c3 and the plastic bottle is less (plus it also has to with buoyancy)
Is gravity and buoyancy the same size?
Neither gravity nor buoyancy have dimensions (size).
What are the 4 forces on an aircraft?
The 4 main forces of flight are: drag, thrust, lift and weight
