The density of the metal sphere is 2 times the density of the liquid as proved.

<h3>Net upward force acting on the metal sphere</h3>

The net upward force acting on the sphere as it is dropped into the liquid is calculated as follows;

F =  σVg - ρVg

ma =  σVg - ρVg  

where;

  • ρ is density of the liquid
  • σ is the density of the metal
  • a is acceleration of the metal

σV(a) =  σVg  - ρVg

σ(a) = σg  - ρg

σ(g/2) = σg -  ρg  

g(σ/2) = g(σ -  ρ)

σ/2 = σ -  ρ

σ/2 - σ = -  ρ

-σ/2 = -  ρ

σ = 2ρ --- proved

Thus, the density of the metal sphere is 2 times the density of the liquid as proved.

allsm [11]

Answer:

41.2°

Explanation:

Total internal reflection is the reflection of the incident ray at the interface between two media in which one of the media has a lower refractive index than the other. It occurs when the angle of incidence in the denser medium exceeds the critical angle.

The critical angle is the angle of incidence in the denser medium when the angle of incidence in the less dense medium is 90°.

Since

n= 1/sin C

C= sin^-(1/n)

C= sin^-(1/1.33)

C= 48.8°

Hence angle of incidence= 90-48.8 = 41.2°

A bungee jumper of mass m = 65 kg jumps from a bridge.
yawa3891 [41]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply energy conservation.

By definition we know that kinetic energy is equal to potential energy, therefore

PE = KE

mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Where,

m = mass

g = gravitaty constat

v = velocity

h = height

Re-arrange to find h,

h=\frac{v^2}{2g}

Replacing with our values

h=\frac{26^2}{2*9.8}

h = 34.498\approx 34.5m

Therefore the correct answer is C.

A 200 g air-track glider is attached to a spring. The glider is pushed 10.0 cm against the spring, then released. A student with
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

5.5N/m

Explanation:

Calculation for What is the spring constant

First step is to calculate the time period

T = 12 second/10

T = 1.2 second

Now let calculate the spring constant using this formula

k=4π²m/T²

Where,

m=0.2kg

T=1.2second

k represent spring constant=?

Let plug in the formula

k=4π²×0.2kg/(1.2)²

k=39.48×0.2kg/1.44

k=7.90/1.44

k=5.48N/m

k=5.5N/m ( Approximately)

Therefore the spring constant will be 5.5N/m
