A block of density pb = 9.50 times 10^2 kg/m^3 floats face down in a fluid of density pt = 1.30 times 10^3 kg/m^3. The block has

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The depth and acceleration are 0.1919291 ft and 3.61 m/s².

Explanation:

Given that,

Density of block $\rho_{b} =9.50\times10^2\ kg/m^3$

Density of fluid $\rho_{t} =1.30\times10^3\ kg/m^3$

We need to calculate the depth

Using balance equation

$mg=\rho g V$ ....(I)

We know that,

The density is

$\rho=\dfrac{m}{V}$

$m=\rh0\times V$

Put the value of m in equation (I)

$\rho_{b}\times V\times g=\rho_{t}\times g\times V$

$\rho_{b}\times A\times H\times g=\rho_{t}\times g\times A\times h$

$h=\dfrac{\rho_{b}H}{\rho_{t}}$

Put the value into the formula

$h=\dfrac{9.50\times10^2\times8.00\times10^{-2}}{1.30\times10^3}$

$h= 5.85\ cm$

$h=0.1919291\ ft$

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using formula of net force

$F_{net}=\rho_{t}\times g\times V- \rho_{b}\times g\times V$

$ma=\rho_{t}\times g\times V- \rho_{b}\times g\times V$

$\rho_{b}\times V\times a=\rho_{t}\times g\times V- \rho_{b}\times g\times V$

$a=(\dfrac{\rho_{t}}{\rho_{b}}-1)g$ ....(II)

Put the value in the equation (II)

$a=(\dfrac{1.30\times10^3}{9.50\times10^2}-1)\times9.8$

$a=3.61\ m/s^2$

Hence, The depth and acceleration are 0.1919291 ft and 3.61 m/s².

Venus has about the same mass as Earth and is about the same distance from the Sun. Yet Venus does not support life. An importan

Bogdan [553]

The correct answer is: (A) An Atmosphere

Explanation:
The atmosphere of Venus is almost ninety times denser than that of Earth. Due to Venus' denser atmosphere and chemical composition (as its atmosphere comprises of over 96% of Carbon dioxide), it experience an immense greenhouse effect. That is why its surface temperature remains higher than 470°. At that very high temperature, it is impossible to have life on the surface of Venus.

Identify two factors that determine the state of matter

vova2212 [387]

Two factors determine whether a substance is a solid, a liquid, or a gas: The kinetic energies of the particles (atoms, molecules, or ions) that make up a substance. Kinetic energy tends to keep the particles moving apart. The attractive intermolecular forces between particles that tend to draw the particles together.

5. A hollow cylinder of mass m, radius Rc, and moment of inertia I = mRc2 is pushed against a spring (with spring constant k) co

Makovka662 [10]

Explanation:

(a) Draw a free body diagram of the cylinder at the top of the loop. At the minimum speed, the normal force is 0, so the only force is weight pulling down.

Sum of forces in the centripetal direction:

∑F = ma

mg = mv²/RL

v = √(g RL)

(b) Energy is conserved.

EE = KE + RE + PE

½ kd² = ½ mv² + ½ Iω² + mgh

kd² = mv² + Iω² + 2mgh

kd² = mv² + (m RC²) ω² + 2mg (2 RL)

kd² = mv² + m RC²ω² + 4mg RL

kd² = mv² + mv² + 4mg RL

kd² = 2mv² + 4mg RL

kd² = 2m (v² + 2g RL)

d² = 2m (v² + 2g RL) / k

d = √[2m (v² + 2g RL) / k]
