Buoyancy (/ ˈbɔɪənsi, ˈbuːjənsi /), [1][2] or upthrust is a net upward force exerted by a fluid that opposes the weight of a partially or fully immersed object. In a column of fluid, pressure increases with depth as a result of the weight of the overlying fluid.
18 Οκτ 2024 · When an object is immersed in a fluid, wholly or partially, the fluid exerts an upward force opposite its weight. This phenomenon is known as buoyancy, and the upward thrust is known as the buoyant force. A characteristic of buoyancy is that it determines whether an object will float or sink. Buoyancy.
30 Οκτ 2024 · Buoyancy results from differences in pressure within the fluid. When an object is placed in a fluid, the pressure at the bottom of the object is higher than at the top because pressure in a fluid increases with depth. This pressure difference creates an upward force — the buoyant force.
Archimedes’ principle refers to the force of buoyancy that results when a body is submerged in a fluid, whether partially or wholly. The force that provides the pressure of a fluid acts on a body perpendicular to the surface of the body.
Hot-air balloons and blimps can float in the air thanks to buoyancy, an upward force that the air exerts on them. The balloon must weigh less than the air it displaces (the air that would occupy the same space if the balloon wasn’t there).

Objects can experience buoyancy in any fluid, so machines like hot air balloons are buoyant in air. Heating the air inside the balloon creates hotter air that is less dense than the surrounding air, pushing the hot air balloon upward.
