upward pressure against the bottom is greater than downward pressure against the top of the submerged object. |
8) The reason that buoyant force acts upward on a submerged object is that A) it acts in a direction to oppose gravity. B) if it acted downward, nothing would float. C) the weight of fluid displaced reacts with an upward force. D) upward pressure against the bottom is greater than downward pressure against the top of the submerged object. |

by a force equal to the weight of liquid displaced. |
14) When an object is partly or wholly immersed in a liquid, it is buoyed up A) by a force equal to its own weight. B) by a force equal to the weight of liquid displaced. C) and floats because of Archimedes principle. D) but nevertheless sinks. E) none of these |
|
the bottom of the tower |
19) When holes are drilled through the wall of a water tower , water will spurt out the greatest horizontal distance from the hole closest to A) the bottom of the tower. B) the middle of the tower. C) the top of the tower. D) The horizontal distance will be the same for all holes. |

|
the density of salt water exceeds the density of egg |
25) An egg is placed at the bottom of a bowl filled with water. Salt is slowly added to the water until the egg rises and floats.
