A hydraulic ram is a device used to
A. Store the energy of water
B. Increase the pressure of water
C. To lift water from deep wells
D. To lift small quantity of water to a greater height when a large quantity of water is available at a smaller height
A. The weight of the body
B. More than the weight of the body
C. Less than the weight of the body
D. Weight of the fluid displaced by the body
ans is c
reason: The result is a net upward force (a buoyant force) on any object in any fluid. If the buoyant force is greater than the object's weight, the object will rise to the surface and float. ... The buoyant force is a result of pressure exerted by the fluid.
