Questions and Answers

Which force acts on a particle immersed in a liquid and has a direction opposite to the gravitational force?

  • Frictional force
  • Centripetal force
  • Electromagnetic force
  • Lifting force (correct)

What is the total force acting on a particle in a suspension, considering the gravitational force and the lifting force?

  • $F = F_g + F_p$
  • $F = F_g - F_p$ (correct)
  • $F = F_g * F_p$
  • $F = F_g / F_p$

What is the mass of fluid expelled from the body when calculating the lifting force?

  • $m_f$
  • $m_p$
  • $m_g$
  • $m_s$ (correct)
