Buoyancy (/ˈbɔɪənsi, ˈbuːjənsi/), or
upthrust is a net
upward force exerted by a
fluid that
opposes the
weight of a
partially or
fully immersed object...
- this
region over a
volcanic "hotspot" in the Earth's
mantle causing an
upthrust of
magma which formed the Appalachian-Ouachita range.
Subsequent erosion...
- an
impact crater. Snow's Island, at that point, is
believed to be the
upthrust formed at the
center of the
crater after the impact. The
structure is approximately...
-
compared with the
density of the
surrounding air to
produce sufficient upthrust to
balance the
weight of the
basket and its contents.
Neutral buoyancy...
- follows: Any body
wholly or
partially immersed in
fluid experiences an
upthrust equal to, but
opposite in
direction to, the
weight of the
fluid displaced...

relation is not what is
known as Archimedes' principle—that
deals with the
upthrust experienced by a body
immersed in a fluid.) He then
realized that the volume...

software was
subsequently modified to
handle this kind of situation. An
upthrust of 6 to 8
meters (20 to 26 ft)
along a 180-kilometer (110 mi)-wide seabed...
-
destroying more than 900
homes and
leaving thousands of
people homeless. Land
upthrust extended the s****line of one island, Ranongga, by up to 70
metres (230 ft)...
- the target. However, the most
destructive part of the
explosion is the
upthrust of the gas bubble,
which will
bodily lift the hull in the water. The structure...
- capacity. The
water in the
caisson (due to a high
water table)
balances the
upthrust forces of the soft
soils underneath. If dewatered, the base may "pipe"...
