What are the properties of a non Newtonian fluid and why are they like this

A non Newtonian fluid has the properties of both a solid and a liquid becausei its viscosity changes depending on pressure

Find the density of a 60g object with a volume of 12cm^3

5g/cm^3

400

Why does buoyancy exist?

Pressure becomes greater as water depth increases and greater pressure spreads upwards, which creates an upward force.
