Answer:
Sand
Explanation:
While the term buoyancy may confuse the reader, the question here is referring to buoyant force.
Buoyant force is the amount of pressure exerted on an object by the liquid it is in. Given by the formula

Where
= Buoyant Force
= Volume of Object submerged in the liquid
= Density of Liquid
= Force of gravity
Since in this question the swimmer with the sand is completely submerged in water, more of the volume of his preserver is under the water hence the buoyant force is greater on it than the swimmer with the Styrofoam (as part of him is not submerged in water)
m = mass of the cat being lifted = 5 kg
h = height to which the cat is raised into air = 2 m
g = acceleration due to gravity of earth = 9.8 m/s²
U = gravitational potential energy gained by the cat
Gravitational potential energy gained by the cat is given as
U = m g h
inserting the values in the above equation
U = (5 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (2 m)
U = (5 x 9.8 x 2) (kg m²/s²)
U = 98 J
When a battery is connected to a circuit, the electrons from the anode travel through the circuit toward the cathode in a direct circuit. The voltage of a battery is synonymous with its electromotive force, or emf. This force is responsible for the flow of charge through the circuit, known as the electric current.
