Answer:
The correct answer is:
a) remain where it is released
Explanation:
The concept of density seeks to measure the weight of an object in relation to its size. It is the measure of how packed together the particles of that object are. An object placed in a liquid displaces a certain volume of the liquid, based on the relative density of the object and the liquid.
If an object is less dense than a liquid in which it is placed, it displaces a smaller volume of the liquid than its volume, hence only some part of the object will be seen to be under the liquid, the other part will float.
If an object is denser than the liquid in which it is placed, it displaces a larger volume of the liquid than its own volume, making the object to sink and is submerged, sometimes to the bottom of the liquid, but mostly below the point at which it was released.
Finally, if the density of an object and the liquid into which it is submerged is the same. the object's mass per unit volume is the same as the liquid's mass per unit volume, hence the weight and force created due to density will balance and cancel each other out hence making the object to remain where it was submerged.
An independent variable is a variable that does not depend on anything. It is manipulated to determine the value of a dependent variable<span>. The dependent variable is what is being measured in an experiment or evaluated in a mathematical equation and the independent variables are the inputs to that measurement. Example: Time would always be an independent variable because nothing affects time, however, time can affect everything. </span>
Answer:
Why are continental rises and abyssal plains relatively rare in the Pacific? This is because the extensive system of trenches along the active margins of the Pacific, trap much of the sediments flowing off the continents, preventing them from building the broad, flat abyssal plains typical of the Atlantic ocean basins.
