Does Water Exerts Force?

If I place an object in water. It will exert a force equal to its weight on the water below. Now, the water below will exert a reaction force upwards on the object.

What forces act on water?

When an object enters water, two forces act on it: an upward buoyant force and a downward force of gravity.

Does water and air have force?

If you look at the surface between some water and air, say in a lake, it's not getting pushed either way. The net force on it is zero. That means that the pressure pushing up from the water has to exactly equal the pressure pushing down from the air. ... Air isn't very dense, it doesn't weigh much per volume.
