What is the term for the ability of a fluid to exert an upward force on any object placed in it?

  • Correct Answer: buoyancy

Explanation: Buoyancy is the ability of a fluid to exert an upward force on any object placed in it. The upward force is called buoyant force. An object’s weight and the buoyant force acting on it determine whether the object sinks or floats. Less dense objects and fluids float in fluids with greater density.
