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.

How long does it take for a truck accelerating at 1.5 m/s^2 to got from rest to 75 km/hr
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

t = 13.9s

Explanation:

u = 0 m/s

v = 75 km/h

= 20.83 m/s

a = 1.5 m/s²

Using

v = u + at

20.83 = 0 + 1.5t

t = 13.9s

What is the difference between sodium atom and a sodium ion
ludmilkaskok [199]
Pretty much any element(in your case sodium) contain these properties.

Atoms can be an ion, but not all ions are atoms. The difference between an atom and an ion has to do with net electrical charge. An ion is a particle or collection of particles with a net positive or negative charge. ... A stable atom contains the same number of electrons as protons and no net charge

ABC Corporation paid an executive $300,000.00 in annual compensation. A state court determines that this compensation was excess
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

This a pure case of conflict of interests between the interest of the shareholders who are the original owners of the company and management's interest in earning much more,even if it at the expense of the shareholders.

Explanation:

Management is the entrusted with the day to day affairs of corporations.In carrying out their duty,they must have at the back of their minds that maximization of shareholder's wealth is of top priority.

However.some management teams in a bid to gain undue advantage set their remuneration below reasonable levels.

Ultimately,when this happens, their duty to watch over the investment of shareholders clashes with their interest for personal gains.
