Answer:

B. for an object that floats

Explanation:

For an object to float the weight of the object must be balanced by the buoyancy force.

However an object will sink if the  magnitude of the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the amount of fluid that has the same volume as the object.

What happens when the fuel in a car engine combustion?​
Trava [24]

In a spark ignition engine, the fuel is mixed with air and then inducted into the cylinder during the intake process. After the piston compresses the fuel-air mixture, the spark ignites it, causing combustion. The expansion of the combustion gases pushes the piston during the power stroke.

A delivery truck leaves a warehouse and travels 2.60 km north. The truck makes a left turn and travels 1.25 km west before makin
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

4.19 km and 107.35 degrees north of east

Explanation:

So in the end, the truck is (2.6 + 1.4 = 4km) north and 1.25 km west from the warehouse. We can use the Pythagorean formula to calculate the magnitude and direction α of the truck displacement from the warehouse:

s = \sqrt{s_n^2 + s_w^2} = \sqrt{4^2 + 1.25^2} = \sqrt{16 + 1.5625} = \sqrt{17.5625} = 4.19 km

tan\alpha = \frac{s_n}{s_w} = \frac{4}{1.25} = 3.2

\alpha = tan^{-1}3.2 = 1.27 rad \approx 72.65 degrees north or west or (180 - 72.65) = 107.35 degrees north of east
