→Calculating Upthrust
''NB: You don not need to remember this equation.''
<math> F_U P = \rho g h A</math>
Where:
<math> F_UP</math> = [[ForcePressure]] of caused by the [[upthrustfluid]].
<math>\rho</math> = [[Density]] of [[fluid]].
<math>g</math> = [[Gravitational Field Strength]]
<math>h</math> = [[HeightDepth]] of the [[object]] from in the [[fluid]]. '' '''Upthrust''' = (Difference in pressure between top and bottom) x (Cross sectional area perpendicular to depth) <math> F_u = \delta P A</math> Where: <math> F_u</math> = The [[force]] of [[upthrust]]. <math> \delta P</math> = [[Pressure]] difference between the top and bottomof the [[object]].
<math>A</math> = [[Cross Sectional Area|Cross sectional area]] of the [[object]] [[perpendicular]] to the [[height]].
