Question:
A cork floats on the surface of an incompressible liquid in a container exposed to atmospheric pressure. The container is then sealed and the air above the liquid is evacuated. The cork:
A. sinks slightly
B. rises slightly
C. floats at the same height
D. bobs up and down about its old position
Answer:
The correct answer is C) floats at the same height
Explanation:
The liquid is incompressible because its density very high and leaves no room for further compaction whether or not there is atmospheric pressure. So when you put a cork on the liquid, pressure or no pressure, there is no displacement hence it floats on the same height regardless of the absence of air.

Answer:
correct answer is C
Explanation:
In this exercise, you are asked to complete the sentences so that the sentence makes sense.
1) in projectile launching, the only force that acts is gravity in the vertical direction, so the time of going up is EQUAL to the time of going down
correct answer C
2) when a body falls freely, the acceleration is the ratio of gravity, therefore if it starts from rest, its height is
y = v₀ t - ½ gt²
v₀ = 0
y = -1/2 g t²
so the position is not proportional to the square of the time
correct answer is C
It’s 12 km
Because you multiply 8x1.5 and you get the answer.
