Respuesta :

Based on Newton's third law, the pressure is the same on points that are at the same level but on opposite sides.

Why is the net force in the horizontal direction on an object immersed in a liquid at rest equal to zero?

When an object is immersed in a fluid at rest,

  • the fluid exerts a force on its surface which always normal to the object's surface
  • the pressure is the same on points that are at the same level but on opposite sides.

Therefore, the net force along horizontal firection is equal to zero.
