An object Was dropped into a glass of water and settled at the bottom of the glass, later the object was dropped into
a glass of oil but this time the object floated , can
you explain why did it sink in water but float in oil

  distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

explanation:

the instantaneous velocity = change in position/time taken

the slope of the graph should give instantaneous velocity.

  slope of a graph = change in value of y -axis / change in values of x -axis

  comparing both the equations

    change in value of y -axis = change in position

  change in values of x -axis = time taken

so position values should be on the y axis and time values should be on the x axis.

distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

the answer is 100. i just did this lesson and got a 100% on it. : )
