- 2. Multiple ChoiceIf the weight of the water displaced is the same as the weight of the object placed in the water, the object will sink.TrueFalse
- 3. Multiple Choice
The ship was able to float in the water because its weight was the same as the weight of the water it displaced.TrueFalse - 4. Multiple ChoiceWhat was the principle Archimedes discovered?Principle of VolumePrinciple of DensityPrinciple of BuoyancyPrinciple of Gravity
- 5. Multiple ChoiceWhat is buoyant force?An upward force exerted by fluids on an object.An downward force exerted by fluids on an object.
- 6. Multiple ChoiceWhat does buoyant mean?floatpushflying, yeah!!!!!!sink
- 7. Multiple ChoiceAn empty water bottle floating on the water is an example of....positive buoyancynegative buoyoncy
- 8. Multiple ChoiceA water bottle filled with stones and sinking in the water is an example of.......negative buoyancypositive buoyancy
- 9. Multiple Choicepushes an ice cube to the top of a glass of waterbuoyant forcedensitya sinking objectcompressed air
- 10. Multiple ChoiceWhat is the formula for density?density = mass x volumedensity = mass / volumedensity = mass + volumedensity = mass - volume
- 11. Multiple ChoiceThis is a measurement of the amount of matter, or 'stuff', in an object or substance.volumedensitymasslength
- 12. Multiple ChoiceWhich liquid is the least dense?oilwatersyrupplastic bottle
- 13. Multiple ChoiceWhat happens when you heat a gas?It gains mass.It loses mass.It increases in volume.It decreases in volume.
- 14. Multiple ChoiceThe density of water is 1g/cm3. A substance will float if its density is less than that of water. Which of the following substance will float?substance 1substance 2substance 3substance 4
- 15. Multiple ChoiceWhat is volumethe amount of space an object occupiesthe amount of matter an object has
- 16. Multiple ChoiceWhich box has a higher density?Box ABox Bcannot be determinedthey are the same
- 17. Multiple ChoiceIf two objects are made of the same substance and have the same mass, the shape of the object determines whether or not it sinks or floats in a fluid.TrueFalse
- 18. Multiple ChoiceHot air balloons float because hot air displaces cool air in the atmosphere.truefalse
- 19. Multiple ChoiceIf the mass of an object is 6kg on earth. what would the mass be on the moon?6kg0kg1kg13kg
- 20. Multiple ChoiceBuoyancy is the tendency for objects to float in a fluid. We consider buoyancy the...Un-gravity forceAnti-gravity forceGravitational pullDownwards pull on an object
- 21. Multiple ChoiceTrue or False: Buoyancy is an upwards force measured in Newtons.TrueFalse
- 22. Multiple ChoiceArchimedes' Principle states that...The buoyant force acting on an object equals the volume of the fluid displaced by the object.The buoyant force acting on an object equals the weight (force of gravity) of the fluid displaced by the object.The buoyant force acting on an object will always be equal.
- 23. Multiple ChoiceWhich will result in positive buoyancy?When the buoyant force is greater than the force of gravityWhen the buoyant force is equal to the force of gravityWhen the buoyant force is less than the force of gravity
- 24. Multiple ChoiceHow could you make plastic sink and steel float?You can'tChange the shape and therefore surface areaRemove some mass
- 25. Multiple ChoiceWater is the only fluid that can provide buoyancy.truefalse
- 26. Multiple ChoiceTrue or false... "mass" is the exact same thing as "weight"?TrueFalse
- 27. Multiple Choicewhich of the following statements is true?oil floats on water because oil is less dense than wateroil does not float on water because water is more densewater floats on oil because water is less dense
- 28. Multiple ChoiceHot air is less dense than cold airtruefalse
