Answer:

FLASH FLOODS CAN CAUSE VEHICLES TO FLOAT AND FILL WITH WATER, TRAPPING AND DROWNING PEOPLE. WHILE ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS AT NIGHT AND IN DEEP WATER, EVEN ____ INCHES OF WATER CAN FLOAT SOME SMALL CARS.

The Answer is SIX Inches.

Explanation:

Flash floods: are short-term events and are associated with short, high-intensity rainfall which occur when creeks that are normally dry fill up and other creeks overflow. Densely populated areas have a high risk of flash floods. Water levels in flash floods can rise one foot in five minutes making Six inches of water able to reach the bottom of most passenger cars. Moving water will exert pressure on a car. The car floats downstream when stream force exceeds the friction force, the car will be carried when bouyancy force (which is the upward force exerted by any fluid upon a body placed in it) is greater than vehicle weight.
