A metal block has a density of 5000 kg per cubic meter and a mass of 15,000 kg. What is its volume?

Taking into account the definition of density, the volume of the metal block is 3 m³.

<h3>What is density</h3>

Density is defined as the property that matter, whether solid, liquid or gas, has to compress into a given space.

In other words, density is a quantity that allows us to measure the amount of mass in a certain volume of a substance.

Then, the expression for the calculation of density is the quotient between the mass of a body and the volume it occupies:

density=\frac{mass}{volume}

From this expression it can be deduced that density is inversely proportional to volume: the smaller the volume occupied by a given mass, the higher the density.

<h3>Volume of the metal block</h3>

In this case, you know that:

  • Density= 5000 \frac{kg}{m^{3} }
  • Mass= 15000 kg
  • Volume= ?

Replacing in the definition of density:

5000 \frac{kg}{m^{3} } =\frac{15000 kg}{volume}

Solving:

volume×5000 \frac{kg}{m^{3} }= 15000 kg

volume= \frac{15000 kg}{5000 \frac{kg}{m^{3} }}

<u><em>volume= 3 m³</em></u>

In summary, the volume of the metal block is 3 m³.

A fighter bomber is making a bombing run flying horizontally at 500 knots (256m/s) at an altitude of 100.0m.
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

<em>(a) t = 4.52 sec</em>

<em>(b) X = 1,156.49 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Horizontal Launching </u>

If an object is launched horizontally, its initial speed is zero in the y-coordinate and the horizontal component of the velocity v_o remains the same in time. The distance x is computed as .

\displaystyle x=v_o.t

(a)

The vertical component of the velocity v_y starts from zero and gradually starts to increase due to the acceleration of gravity as follows

v_y=gt

This means the vertical height is computed by

\displaystyle h=h_o-\frac{gt^2}{2}

Where h_o is the initial height. Our fighter bomber is 100 m high, so we can compute the time the bomb needs to reach the ground by solving the above equation for t knowing h=0

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2h_o}{g}}

\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2(100)}{9.8}}=4.52\ sec

(b)

We now compute the horizontal distance knowing v_o=256\ m/s

\displaystyle x=(256).(4.52)

X=1,156.49\ m

Katarina [22]

Answer:2.541

Explanation:

Well , Potential Energy = mgh

m=mass = 82

g=acceleration of gravity=9.80m/s^2

h=what we are looking for

PE=mgh

PE/(mg) = h

Substitute in the values:

1970/(82 x 9.8) = h 2.541

Solenoid 2 has twice the radius and six times the number of turns per unit length as solenoid 1. The ratio of the magnetic field
Xelga [282]

Answer:

6

Explanation:

The magnetic field inside a solenoid is given by the following formula:

B = \mu_{0}nI

where,

B = Magnetic Field Inside Solenoid

μ₀ = permittivity of free space

n = No. of turns per unit length

I = Current Passing through Solenoid

For Solenoid 1:

B_{1} = \mu_{0}n_{1}I  ------------------- equation 1

For Solenoid 2:

n₂ = 6n₁

Therefore,

B_{1} = \mu_{0}n_{2}I\\B_{1} = 6\mu_{0}n_{1}I  ----------------- equation 2

Diving equation 1 and equation 2:

\frac{B_{2}}{B_{1}} = \frac{6\mu_{0}nI}{\mu_{0}nI}\\\\\frac{B_{2}}{B_{1}} = 6

Hence, the correct option is:

<u>6</u>

For the second question you’re solving for resistance. resistance= voltage/ current. 120/0.5= 240. the answer is 240 ohms
for the third question you would do 2*4 since it’s asking for voltage, the answer is 8 volts :)
