constant acceleration, no forces acting on it, no translational or rotational acceleration, none of the above.

6. What is the buoyancy force of a fluid upon an object that sinks in the fluid? A. B. C.

zero, an upward force equal in magnitude to that of the weight of the object, an upward force equal in magnitude to the magnitude of the weight of a quantity of fluid equal to the objects volume.

near its top end where it is suspended, near its bottom end, near the middle, anywhere along its length.

9. Astronauts in spacecraft on the way to the moon or orbiting the earth have been described as being in a

B. C. D.

dependant on the temperature of the water, greater than the velocity of sound in air, all of the above.
