2. The reason that the buoyant force acts upward on an object submerged in a liquid is because a. it must act in a direction to oppose gravity force of the liquid. b. if it acted downward, nothing would float. c. upward pressure against the bottom of the object is greater than downward pressure against the top of the object. d. the weight of the liquid displaced by the object has a direction upward. 3. An object can float (Think about all the objects you know that can float) on the water, if we cut a small piece from this object, does this small piece still float on the water? Give examples for your answer. No. b. Yes. c. Could not be determined. a 4. A solid block of Styrofoam floats on water with a small portion submerged in the water while a solid block of lead with the same shape as the Styrofoam block is totally submerged in the water. The buoyant force is greater a on the lead. b. on the Styrofoam. is the same for both. d. cannot tell c.
