Question

leonardo is a five - year - old boy. while playing on the shore, he threw an empty, capped, pl happen?
o a. the bottle will sink to the bottom of the ocean
o b. the bottle will keep bobbing up and down.
o c. the bottle will be carried across the ocean to a distant place
o d. the bottle will result in a series of tsunamis.
o e. the bottle will remain floating still on the ocean water.

Explanation:

An empty, capped plastic bottle is less dense than water, so it will float. Ocean currents and waves will cause it to move. Option A is incorrect as it won't sink. Option D is wrong as tsunamis are caused by large - scale geological events, not a bottle. Option E is incorrect as the ocean is dynamic and the bottle won't remain still. Option B only mentions bobbing (which is part of its motion due to waves), but the more comprehensive answer considering ocean movement is Option C.

Answer:

C. The bottle will be carried across the ocean to a distant place.
