The specific gravity of the object’s material is 5.09.

<h3>To calculate the specific gravity of the object:</h3>

Weight difference = 9 - 7.2 = 1.8 N = Buoyant force of water

Buoyant Force in water(Fb) = density of water x g x volume of the   body(Vb)

1.8 = 1000 x 9.81 x Vb

Vb = 1.8/9810 cubic meter

Now, in the air;

Weight of body = mg = 9 N

Mass of body,m = 9/9.81 Kg

So,

Density of body = m/ Vb

= 9/9.81 ÷ 1.8/9810

= 5094.44 kg per cubic meter

The specific gravity of body = density of body ÷ density of water

= 5094.44 ÷ 1000

= 5.09

Therefore, Specific gravity of body = 5.09

What is the magnitude of the change in potential energy of the block-spring system when it travels from its lowest vertical posi
maksim [4K]

Answer:

 ΔU = 2 mg h

Explanation:

In a spring mass system the potential energy is U = m g h

where h is measured from the equilibrium point of the spring

the potential energy at the highest point is

         U₁ = m g h

the potential energy at the lowest point is

         U₂ = m g (-h)

instead in this energy it is

          ΔU = 2 mg h

In this two points the kinetic energy is zero, but there is elastic potential energy that has the same value in the two points, so its change is zero

max2010maxim [7]

Explanation:

Watts are defined as 1 Watt = 1 Joule per second (1W = 1 J/s)

which means that 1 kW = 1000 J/s. A Watt is the amount of energy (in Joules) that an electrical device (such as a light) is burning per second that it's running.

You have two square metal plates with side lengths of (6.50 C) cm. You want to make a parallel-plate capacitor that will hold a
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

The necessary separation between  the two parallel plates is 0.104 mm

Explanation:

Given;

length of each side of the square plate, L = 6.5 cm = 0.065 m

charge on each plate, Q = 12.5 nC

potential difference across the plates, V = 34.8 V

Potential difference across parallel plates is given as;

V = \frac{Qd}{L^2 \epsilon_o} \\\\d = \frac{V L^2 \epsilon_o}{Q}

Where;

d is the separation or distance between the two parallel plates;

d = \frac{VL^2 \epsilon_o}{Q} \\\\d =  \frac{34.8*(0.065)^2 *8.854*10^{-12}}{12.5*10^{-9}} \\\\d = 0.000104 \ m\\\\d = 0.104 \ mm

Therefore, the necessary separation between  the two parallel plates is 0.104 mm
