The resultant upthrust on a body partly immersed in liquid acts through?
The resultant upthrust on a body partly immersed in a liquid acts through the center of buoyancy, which is the centroid of the displaced fluid volume. It is essentially the same point where the weight of the liquid displaced by the body acts, providing a net upward force.
What is the difference between the 'center of gravity' and the 'center of pressure'?
None
How does buoyancy and gravity interact an object is floating in water?
Buoyancy is the upward force exerted on an object immersed in a fluid (such as water) due to a difference in pressure within the fluid. Gravity acts downward on the object, trying to pull it towards the center of the Earth. When an object is floating in water, the buoyant force pushing up on the object equals the weight of the water displaced by the object, allowing it to float at a stable position.
The force of gravity pulling one object toward the center of another object is called?
Perhaps surprisingly, it is called the force of gravity.
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.
Why does the center of gravity and center of buoyancy always not in same position?
Center of gravity is supposed to act at the centroid of the body. while center of buoyancy is the center of gravity of fluid displaced . so they cant be at single point. if the body is completely submerged and homogenous then both cg and cb will coincide

What is the center of gravity in a triangle called?
It is the centroid.
What is the center of gravity called?
It is called the center of mass, this is the specific point where the mass seems to be concentrated.

Perhaps surprisingly, it is called the force of gravity.

The total mass of an object can be assumed to be focused at one point which is called its center of .?
This is called either the center of gravity or the center of mass.
What is the force force of gravity called?
The force of gravity is called weight. It is the force exerted on an object due to gravity pulling it towards the center of the Earth.
What is the center of buoyancy?
The center of buoyancy is the center of volume of displaced water of the hull (of a vessel). Gravity pulls down on a floating object. The fluid it is floating on pushes it up and it floats (assuming it is bouyant). Both gravity and bouyancy (the two forces at work) will have an effective center. The center of gravity is not required to be lower than the center of bouyancy and in general most ship's center of gravity is above the center of bouyancy. The ship will heel until the Metacenter (which is a function of the actual Waterplane area) is at or above the center of gravity. It might be advantageous to look at the center of gravity with respect to the center of bouyancy in ship hull stability and thereby get a better grasp of the particulars. Use the link below to our friends at Wikipedia and look at some diagrams concerning the stability of ships in terms of where the centers of bouyancy and gravity are in relation to each other.
What is the pull of gravity on an object called?
The pull of gravity on an object is called weight. It is the force that acts on an object due to gravity pulling it towards the center of the Earth.
