Final answer:
The level of coffee in the pot rises when a person stands up from a seated position and when a car accelerates while driving. Hence the correct answer is option C
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer to the question is c) both of the above.
In the given options, both a person standing up from a seated position and a car accelerating while driving represent situations where the level of coffee in the pot is rising. When a person stands up, their body moves upwards, causing the coffee level to rise. Similarly, when a car accelerates, the liquid in the coffee pot experiences a force that pushes it towards the back, resulting in a rise in the coffee level.
