Detailed explanation-1: -The net upward force on any item in any fluid is known as buoyant force. The object will rise to the surface and float if the buoyant force is higher than its weight. The object will sink if the buoyant force is less than its weight. Buoyancy is a force acting on an item that causes it to rise or move higher.
Detailed explanation-2: -Buoyancy (the ability of an object to float in water or air) is intimately related to specific gravity. If a substance has specific gravity less than that of a fluid, it will float on that fluid: helium-filled balloons will rise in air, oil will form…
Detailed explanation-3: -Buoyancy is the tendency of an object to float in a fluid. All liquids and gases in the presence of gravity exert an upward force known as the buoyant force on any object immersed in them. Buoyancy results from the differences in pressure acting on opposite sides of an object immersed in a static fluid.
Detailed explanation-4: -buoyancy: The upward force that a fluid exerts on an object less dense than itself; the ability to float.
Detailed explanation-5: -Buoyant force is the net upward force on any object in any fluid. If the buoyant force is greater than the object’s weight, the object will rise to the surface and float. If the buoyant force is less than the object’s weight, the object will sink.
