Re: [Phys-l] A Crude Attempt at Analysis

How about "net pressure force" or as in German Netpressureforce. Or
F_PresNET. Actually that would be the buoyant force when the object is
surrounded by a fluid or floating in a fluid.

Ah. Apologies. I just caught up on the thread, and it appears "net" force
is
being used as [perhaps] pressures integrated over the surface. Sorry for
the
noise.


Still, what a strange use of the term "net force"!
