The density of the two pieces of rock is determined from the ratio of their masses to the pore volume of the rock.

<h3>What is density?</h3>

The density of an object is the ratio of mass to volume of the object.

Density = mass/volume

Assuming a constant pore volume of the rock = V

Density for 26.3 g = 26.3/V

Density for 58.3 g = 58.3g/V

Thus, the density of the two pieces of rock is determined from the ratio of their masses to the pore volume of the rock.

A box falls off of a tailgate and slides along the street for a distance of 62.5 m. Friction slows the box at –5.0 m/s2. At what
Mila [183]

Answer:

25 m/s

Explanation:

This question can be solved using equation of motion

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

s is the distance covered while moving from initial to final velocity

a is the acceleration

_____________________________________________

Given

box moved for distance of 62.5 m

Friction slows the box at –5.0 m/s2----> this statement means that there is deceleration , speed of truck decreases by 5 m/s in every second until the box comes to rest. Friction causes this deceleration.

thus in this problem

a = -5.0 m/s2

V = 0   as body came to rest due to friction deceleration

u the initial velocity we have to find

the initial velocity of box will be the same as speed of truck, as the box was in the truck and hence box will pick the speed of truck.

so if we find speed of box, we will be able get sped of truck as well.

using equation of motion

v^2 = u^2 + 2as\\0^2 = u^2 + 2*-5* 62.5\\0 = u^2 - 625\\u^2 = 625\\\sqrt{u^2} = \sqrt{625} \\u = 25

Thus, initial speed with the truck was travelling was 25 m/s.

Inserting the formulas you found for Xman(t) and Xbus(t) into the conditionXman(tcatch)=Xbus(tcatch) , you obtain the following-
lara [203]

Answer:

c > √(2ab)

Explanation:

In this exercise we are asked to find the condition for c in such a way that the results have been real

The given equation is

              ½ a t² - c t + b = 0

we can see that this is a quadratic equation whose solution is

             t = [c ±√(c² - 4 (½ a) b)]  / 2

for the results to be real, the square root must be real, so the radicand must be greater than zero

              c² -2a b > 0

              c > √(2ab)

Suppose your friend claims to have discovered a mysterious force in nature that acts on all particles in some region of space. H
kirill [66]

Answer:

             U = 1 / r²

Explanation:

In this exercise they do not ask for potential energy giving the expression of force, since these two quantities are related

             

         F = - dU / dr

this derivative is a gradient, that is, a directional derivative, so we must have

          dU = - F. dr

the esxresion for strength is

         F = B / r³

let's replace

          ∫ dU = - ∫ B / r³  dr

in this case the force and the displacement are parallel, therefore the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product

let's evaluate the integrals

            U - Uo = -B (- / 2r² + 1 / 2r₀²)

To complete the calculation we must fix the energy at a point, in general the most common choice is to make the potential energy zero (Uo = 0) for when the distance is infinite (r = ∞)

             U = B / 2r²

we substitute the value of B = 2

             U = 1 / r²
