According to Archimede's principle, a physical object experiences an upthrust due to a difference in pressure between upper and lower surfaces.

<h3>What is an upthrust?</h3>

An upthrust is also referred to as buoyancy and it can be defined as an upward force which is exerted by a fluid (liquid or gas), so as to oppose the weight of a partially or fully immersed physical object that is floating in it.

Based on scientific information, a physical object experiences an upthrust when it is immersed in a fluid due to a difference in height and pressure between upper (top) and lower (bottom) surfaces.

According to Archimede's principle, there is a higher pressure at the bottom of the physical object due to height, and a lower pressure at the top of the physical object.

A 52.5-turn circular coil of radius 5.35 cm can be oriented in any direction in a uniform magnetic field having a magnitude of 0

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

5.43 x 10^-3 Nm

Explanation:

N = 52.5, radius, r = 5.35 cm = 0.0535 m, B = 0.455 T, I = 25.3 mA = 0.0253 A

Torque = N I A B Sin theta

Here, theta = 90 degree

Torque = 52.5 x 0.0253 x 3.14 x 0.0535 x 0.0535 x 0.455

Torque = 5.43 x 10^-3 Nm

Delilah does 170 Joules of work in 30 seconds. Adam does 260 Joules of work in 20 seconds. Who was more powerful?

sp2606 [1]

Power = $\frac{Work}{Time}$

Delilah: 170J/30s = 5.66 W

Adam: 260J/20s = 13 W

A 60 kg block slides along the top of a 100 kg block with an acceleration of 2.0 m/s2 when a horizontal force F of 340 N is appl

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The coefficient of friction and acceleration are 0.37 and 2.2 m/s²

Explanation:

Suppose we find the coefficient of friction and the acceleration of the 100 kg block during the time that the 60 kg block remains in contact.

Given that,

Mass of block = 60 kg

Acceleration = 2.0 m/s²

Mass = 100 kg

Horizontal force = 340 N

Let the frictional force be f.

We need to calculate the frictional force

Using balance equation

$F-f=ma$

Put the value into the formula

$340-f=60\times2.0$

$f=340-60\times2.0$

$f=220\ N$

We need to calculate the coefficient of friction

Using formula of friction force

$f= \mu mg$

$\mu=\dfrac{f}{mg}$

$\mu=\dfrac{220}{60\times9.8}$

$\mu =0.37$

We need to calculate the acceleration of the 100 kg block

Using formula of newton's law

$F = ma$

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}$

$a=\dfrac{220}{100}$

$a=2.2\ m/s^2$

Hence, The coefficient of friction and acceleration are 0.37 and 2.2 m/s²

At a certain harbor, the tides cause the ocean surface to rise and fall a distance d (from highest level to lowest level) in sim

OleMash [197]

Answer:

1.869 hours

Explanation:

$T$ = Time period = 11.1 h

Angular frequency is given by

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\frac{2\pi}{11.1}\\\Rightarrow \omega=0.566\ rad/h$

The distance moved from highest to lowest level is given by

$d=2x_{m}\\\Rightarrow x_m=\frac{d}{2}\\\Rightarrow x_m=0.5d$

At the ocean surface $x_m=0.25d$

$x=x_mcos(\omega t+\phi)$

$\phi$ = Phase constant = 0 as clock is started at $x_0=x_m$

$0.25d=0.5dcos(0.56t)\\\Rightarrow cos(0.56t)=\frac{0.25}{0.5}\\\Rightarrow 0.56t=cos^{-1}0.5\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{1.047}{0.56}\\\Rightarrow t=1.869\ h$

The time taken for the water to fall the distance is 1.869 hours
