Why doesn't ice float in the air
ice is more dense then air
the shape of an airplane's wing helps it gain
lift
an object weighs 15 N. it displaces a volume of water that weighs 20 N. what is the buoyant force of the object?
20 N
an object weighs 15 N. It displaces a volume of water that weighs 20 N. This object will:
sink
What is the pressure exerted by a 6000 N crate that has an area of 2m2
8000 N
A 600 g fish displaces 200 mL of water. What is the density of the fish?
3 g/mL
Which of the following statements is true:
a. Fluids rarely take the shape of the container
b. fluids include liquid and gases
c. fluids flow from low pressure to high pressure
d. fluids exert the most pressure in the downward direction
B
Air rushes into your lungs when you inhale because:
Fluids include liquids and gases
The higher the altitude
the lower the air pressure
Fluid pressure is exerted evenly in all directions, which explains why
bubbles are round
which of the statements best explains why air bubbles ride to the surface of a pond:
a. a fluid can flow and take the shape of its container
b. Air is about 1000 times less dense than air
c. pressure is the amount of force exerted on a given area
d. the weight of the asmosphere pushes down on the water
B
What is affected by an airplane's sped?
lift
Which would NOT affect the level at which a canoe floats in a body of water:
a. depth of water
b. number of people on the canoe
c. density of the canoes material
d. shape of the canoe
A
The trust of an airplane comes from
engines
in salt water an iceberg floats 10% above water and 90% below water
in fresh water it would float LOWER because fresh water is LESS dense than salt water
One of the reasons smoke foes up in the fireplace is:
according to Bernoulli's principle, the wind above the chimney is moving faster
Pennies make AFTER 1982 have a higher mass (same Volume) than pennies make before 1982. The buoyant force on a post 1982 penny (WHEN DROPPED IN WATER) is:
The SAME as the buoyant force on a pre 1982 penny

BECAUSE IT HAS THE SAME VOLUME
A metal bar has a density of 4.8 g/mL. I cut it into 4 equal pieces. Each piece has a density of 1.2 g/ML
False
The main reason airplanes are pressurized is because there is less oxygen at higher altitudes and you a you would not be able to breathe enough oxygen to survive if they weren't pressurized.
True
Airplanes fly primarily because of Newton's 3rd law (Coanda EffecT), not Bernoulli's principle
True
A steel ship ship carrying a large load without sinking illustrates Archimedes' principle. The ship displaces enough water so that its buoyant force is greater than the ship an its heavy load
True
Car breaks work because of Pascal's principle. When you step on the brake pedal. That fluid pressure is then transferred to the break pads which clamp the wheels and stop the car.
True
Fluids Always flow from areas of high pressure of areas of low pressure
True
By filling its swim bladder with gas, a fish increases its volume. That increases its buoyant force causing the fish to rise
True
The Buoyant force on a submerged object is always in the upward direction
True
An adult has a greater buoyant force than a child does because of the adult's greater volume
True
Most people float. Thats because the weight of the water we displace is greater than our own weight
True
Ive caught a bucker full of fish. to make it easier to carry the bucket to shore, I should fully remove it from the water because the buoyant force on it is less than the bucket's weight.
False
Race cars are designed to be very aerodynamic so that there is less drag to slow them down
True
Turbulence can cause an airplane to quickly fall during flight. Lift causes it to rise.
True
