Is an upward force that either baiances or exceeds the force of gravity?

Any upward force on an object can be less than, equal to, or greater than the force of gravity on that object. It all depends on the object's mass and distance from the center of the Earth.


The upward force that fluids exert on all matter is?

If you place a 5-kg cinder block on a tabletop, it just sits there; it doesn't move. Compared to the tabletop, it's velocity is a constant -- zero, in this case. If an object is moving at constant velocity (even zero velocity), we know that the sum of the forces acting upon it is zero. Hence, we can say that the sum of the forces acting upon the block on the table is zero. So, what are those forces? The obvious one is weight, which is the downward force that is the product of the cinder block's mass and the acceleration due to gravity (W = mg). If weight were the only force acting on the block, it would accelerate downward; in other words, it would fall at an increasing rate. But it's not falling; it's sitting there. So, there must be a force acting upon the block in an upward direction and equal in magnitude to its weight. That upward force that exactly balances the block's weight is called the Normal force.


What are three properties of fluids?

Fluids have the following properties : 1. Fluids can't sustain a shearing force when they are at rest. 2. They undergo a continuous change in shape when they are subjected to stress 3. A perfect fluid lacks viscosity, but real fluids do not.


What force makes it difficult for an airplane to gain altitude fly upward?

These forces are called drag and gravity. Gravity is the downward force on the plane, keeping it from flying, but if the lift, the opposing force, is strong enough, you will achieve flight. Drag is the force pulling you back, making it harder to go forward. This force is produced by air pressure on the front of the plane. The opposing force in this case is thrust, which makes the plane move forward.


Does Archimedes principle can also be applied to gases?

Yes, Archimedes' principle can be applied to gases. It states that an object immersed in a fluid will experience an upward buoyant force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced. This principle applies to all fluids, including gases, where the buoyant force depends on the volume of the gas displaced.

Does the buoyant force act in all ways?

No buoyant force would act only in the upward direction against the weight of the body as it gets immersed in the liquid.


How do you calculate the force that make an object mass rises to an distance vertically?

1). First of all, in order to make an object rise at all, an upward force must be applied to it, and the force must be greater than the object's weight. 2). If an upward force exactly equal to the object's weight is applied to it, then the object can "hover" wherever you put it, as if it is weightless, but it can't rise. 3). If the upward force is greater than the object's weight, then the object can rise to any desired height. It will continue to rise, and its speed will increase, as long as the upward force continues. 4). When the upward force stops, then the object will continue to rise, but it's upward speed will begin to decrease. When the upward speed decreases to zero, the object stops rising and begins to fall. It's downward speed then increases continually, until it hits the ground.

Why does a buoyant force act on every object in Fluid?

Buoyant force is defined as the upward force exerted by a liquid, gas or other fluid, that opposes the weight of an immersed object. According to Archimedes' principle, the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the objects. Because all of the objects displace the fluid, buoyant force acts on all of them.


Is HIV virus found in wound drainage?

Technically speaking, the HIV virus can be found in virtually all bodily fluids. Therefore, a wound drainage would be among them. However, the HIV is found in much higher concentrations is the fluids that are part of the reproductive system.


A bungee cord begins to exert an upward force on a falling bungee jumperWhere did all the energy go?

The energy didn't "go" anywhere. It gets its energy from someone letting it go. It all depends on how much force you put on it.
