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...
- 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

volcanic "hotspot" in the Earth's
mantle causing an

magma which formed the Appalachian-Ouachita range.

-
object is "partially or
completely immersed in a fluid",
where there is an "
upthrust" from the
fluid that is
working against the
force of gravity.

compared with the

- 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...
- follows: Any body
wholly or
partially immersed in
fluid experiences an
upthrust equal to, but
opposite in
direction to, the
weight of the
