To determine which object likely has the greatest mass based on splash size, it's important to consider the factors that affect splash size when an object hits water. Generally, heavier (more massive) objects tend to create larger splashes compared to lighter ones when dropped from the same height.
Given the rankings you provided (1 being the smallest splash and 4 being the largest splash), we can infer the following:
- Object 1 (smallest splash) is likely to be the lightest.
- Object 4 (largest splash) is likely to be the heaviest.
Assuming that the objects are of the same size, the object that is ranked with the largest splash (ranked as 4) is most likely to have the greatest mass.
Based on your information, the options are:
- Object Z
- Object W
- Object X
Without explicit ranking for objects W, X, and Z, if you assume one of them corresponds to a splash size of 4, then that would be the object most likely to have the greatest mass. Since there’s no ranking provided for W and X, you cannot determine definitively without that information.
However, if we assume you have provided information implicitly, please choose the object ranked as splash size 4, as it would likely have the greatest mass. If it corresponds to object Z, then object Z has the greatest mass.
To conclude, based on the information given, object Z likely has the greatest mass if it is associated with the largest splash. If more data on their ranks were available, that would clarify the answer more definitively.
