Buoyancy is a force that always acts in an?
Buoyancy always acts in the direction opposite to the direction of the gravitational force. We normally consider this direction as 'upward'.
What is the force that keeps things floating?
buoyancy
Who established the principle of buoyancy?
People knew that some things floated in water long before writing was invented. The first person to establish the rule that controlled buoyancy was Archimedes.
Is the bouyant force of water proportional to its depth?
No. Water is incompressible. Buoyancy is determined by density, and being incompressible the density stays the same. Once an object is submerged there's no more buoyancy to be generated.
What does Archimedes principle and the buoyancy have in common and where is it employed?
Archimedes' principle is the statement that says buoyancy exists, and explains how to calculate its magnitude. The principle is applied extensively in the maritime shipping and hot-air balooning industries.
