• Gravity

• Magnetism

• Friction

Which scientific principle would be most important in ensuring the stability of an ark floating on water?

• Archimedes' Principle

• Newton's First Law

• Pascal's Law

• Bernoulli's Principle

If an ark is designed to carry a specific load, which formula would be used to calculate the buoyant force?

In a scientific experiment to test the buoyancy of an ark model, which variable would be the independent variable?

• The weight of the ark

• The volume of water displaced

• The density of the water

What is the role of density in determining whether an ark will float or sink?

• An object will float if its density is less than the fluid's density.

• An object will float if its density is more than the fluid's density.

• Density has no effect on floating.

• Density only affects the speed of sinking.

How does the shape of an ark affect its ability to float?

• A wider base increases stability and buoyancy.

• A narrower base increases stability and buoyancy.

• Shape has no effect on buoyancy.

• A taller structure increases buoyancy.
