2. The object's volume.
3. The density of the liquid.
Remember what the buoyant force is. It's the lifting force caused by the displacement of a fluid. I'm using the word fluid because it can be either a liquid or gas. For instance a helium balloon floats due to the buoyant force exceeding the mass of the balloon. So let's look at the options and see what's correct.
1. Object's mass
* This doesn't affect the buoyant force directly. It can have an effect if the object's mass is lower than the buoyant force being exerted. Think of a boat as an example. The boat is floating on the top of the water. If cargo is loaded into the boat, the boat sinks further into the water until the increased buoyant force matches the increased mass of the boat. But if the density of the object exceeds the density of the fluid, then increasing the mass of the object will not affect the buoyant force. So this is a bad choice.
2. The object's volume.
* Yes, this directly affects the buoyant force. So this is a good choice.
3. The density of the liquid.
* Yes, this directly affects the buoyant force. You can drop a piece of iron into water and it will sink. You could also drop that same piece of iron into mercury and it will float. The reason is that mercury has a much higher density than water. So this is a good choice.
4. Mass of the liquid
* No. Do not mistake mass for density. As a mental exercise, imagine the buoyant force on a small piece of metal dropped into a swimming pool. Now imagine the buoyant force on that same piece of metal dropped into a lake. In both cases, the buoyant force is the same, yet the lake has a far greater mass of water than the swimming pool. So this is a bad choice.

While goofing off at the ice skating rink, a student takes off her shoes and places each of them on the ice. her friend, a hockey player, then shoots a hockey puck at each shoe. the first puck immediately comes to rest after it collides with the left shoe. the second puck rebounds after it collides with the right shoe. if each hockey puck has the same incoming speed, which shoe has greater speed after the collision? the right shoe. both shoes have the same speed. the left shoe.

Some material consisting of a collection of microscopic objects is kept at a high temperature. a photon detector capable of detecting photon energies from infrared through ultraviolet observes photons emitted with energies of 0.3 ev, 0.5 ev, 0.8 ev, 2.0ev, 2.5ev, and 2.8ev. these are the only photon energies observed. (a) draw and label a possible energy-level diagram for one of the microscopic objects, which has four bound states. on the diagram, indicate the transitions corresponding to the emitted photons. explain briefly. (b) would a spring–mass model be a good model for these microscopic objects? why or why not? (c) the material is now cooled down to a very low temperature, and the photon detector stops detecting photon emissions. next, a beam of light with a continuous range of energies from infrared through ultraviolet shines on the material, and the photon detector observes the beam of light after it passes through the material. what photon energies in this beam of light are observed to be significantly reduced in intensity (“dark absorption lines”)? explain briefly.
