Answer:

See below ~

Explanation:

An object will sink in water when its density is greater than that of water, which is 1 g/cm³.

Volume of the box is <u>1331 cm³</u>. (11³)

Maximum mass of sand will be 1331 g. [because 1331/1331 = 1 g/cm³]

Volume of sand = Mass of sand / Density of sand
Volume (sand) = 1331/3.5
Volume (sand) = 380.29 cm³

If the volume of sand is <u>greater than 380.29 cm³</u>, the box will sink in water.

The mass of Jupiter is 1.9 × 1027 and that of the sun is 1.99 × 1030. The

n200080 [17]

Answer:

F = 4.147 × 10^23

v = 1.31 × 10^4

Explanation:

Given the following :

mass of Jupiter (m1) = 1.9 × 10^27

Mass of sun (m2) = 1.99 × 10^30

Distance between sun and jupiter (r) = 7.8 × 10^11m

Gravitational force (F) :

(Gm1m2) / r^2

Where ; G = 6.673×10^-11 ( Gravitational constant)

F = [(6.673×10^-11) × (1.9 × 10^27) × (1.99 × 10^30)] / (7.8 × 10^11)^2

F = [25.231 × 10^(-11+27+30)] / (60.84 × 10^22)

F = (25.231 × 10^46) / (60.84 × 10^22)

F = 3.235 × 10^(46 - 22)

F = 0.4147 × 10^24

F = 4.147 × 10^23

Speed of Jupiter (v) :

v = √(Fr) / m1

v = √[(4.147 × 10^23) × (7.8 × 10^11) / (1.9 × 10^27)

v = √32.3466 × 10^(23+11) / 1.9 × 10^27

v = √32.3466× 10^34 / 1.9 × 10^27

v = √17. 023 × 10^34-27

v = √17.023 × 10^7

v = 13047.221

v = 1.31 × 10^4

A 50.0-kg box rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surface is 0.300 and the

Dimas [21]

Answer:

98N and 147N

Explanation:

We have the following information:

$m=50kg\\\mu_s =0.4\\\mu_k = 0.2\\F=140N$

We can find the static fricton force as follow,

$F=\mu_s * N$

Where N is the normal force (mg)

$F=0.3*50*9.8\\F=147N$

Static friction force at 147N is greater than the force applied hence body does not move.

$F=\mu_k N = 0.2*50*9.8= 98N$

With regard to pneumatic mechanical devices which afford protection against the formation of ice, which of the following stateme

Andreyy89

Answer:

the answer is The pneumatic mechanical device can only be used as a de-icing device.

Explanation:

An ice protection system prevents the formation of ice, or enables the aircraft to shed the ice before it can grow to a dangerous thickness. Ice protection systems are designed to keep atmospheric ice from accumulating on aircraft surfaces such as wings, propellers and engine intakes.

The pneumatic mechanical device is the Pneumatic deicing boots which was invented by the Goodrich Corporation in 1923. The pneumatic boot is usually made of layers of rubber, with one or more air chambers between the layers.

Any design which utilizes either a mechanical means of breaking the bond of ice to the surface, or which operates on a periodic cycle, is necessarily a de-ice system.

PolarNik [594]

Complete Question

An oil tanker has collided with a smaller vessel, resulting in an oil spill in a large, calm-water bay of the ocean. You are investigating the environmental effects of the accident and need to know the area of the spill. The tanker captain informs you that 18000 liters of oil have escaped and that the oil has an index of refraction of n = 1.1. The index of refraction of the ocean water is 1.33. From the deck of your ship you note that in the sunlight the oil slick appears to be blue. A spectroscope confirms that the dominant wavelength from the surface of the spill is 485 nm. Assuming a uniform thickness, what is the largest total area oil slick

Answer:

The largest total area of the oil slick $A = 8.257 *10^{9} \ m^2$
