Explanation:

The buoyant force on an object immersed in a liquid acts in the vertically upward direction. Buoyant force acts in the direction opposite to the direction in which weight of the object acts. The buoyant force is caused by the pressure difference between the top and the bottom of the object submerged in a liquid.

Explanation:

Buoyancy is the force that causes objects to float. It is the force exerted on an object that is partly or wholly immersed in a fluid. Buoyancy is caused by the differences in pressure acting on opposite sides of an object immersed in a static fluid. It is also known as the buoyant force. Buoyancy is the phenomena due to Buoyant Force.

We can define Buoyancy as:

The upward force applied by the fluid on the object or the body when an object is put in or submerged in the fluid.

When an object is immersed in a liquid it experiences an upward force known as Buoyant Force. This phenomenon of experiencing an upward force is known as Buoyancy

It is as an upward force exerted by a fluid that opposes the weight of an object immersed in a fluid. As we know, the pressure in a fluid column increases with depth. Thus, the pressure at the bottom of an object submerged in the fluid is greater than that at the top. The difference in this pressure results in a net upward force on the object which we define as buoyancy.
