How does the weight of a object affect buoyancy?
Buoyancy is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.
If you use the same force to push a car in truck which will have more acceleration? Why?

An object has a volume of 64cm and a mass of 34g what is the density?
0.53g/cm
How does the pressure of gas affect volume?
An increase in the number of gas molecules in the same volume container increases pressure. A decrease in container volume increases gas pressure.
In what way does particle motion affect temperature?
When the molecules and atoms vibrate faster, the temperature goes up.
