In the process of loading a ship, a shipping container gets dropped into the water and sinks to the bottom of the harbor. Salvag

e experts plan to recover the container by attaching a spherical balloon to the container and inflating it with air pumped down from the surface. The dimensions of the container are 5.80 m long, 2.60 m wide, and 2.80 m high. As the crew pumps air into the balloon, its spherical shape increases and when the radius is 1.50 m, the shipping container just begins to rise toward the surface. Determine the mass of the container. You may ignore the weight of the balloon and the air in the balloon. The density of seawater is 1027 kg/m3.

Answer:

57.885.8 kg   weight of the container

Explanation:

The volume of the balloon * density of water = buoyant force of balloon

 volume of a sphere = 4/3 pi r^3

                                   = 4/3 pi * (1.5)^3 = 14.14 m^3   <===balloon volume

Now,   find the buoyant force on the container ALONE ....

             5.8 * 2.6 * 2.8  * 1027  = 43 364  kg   <=====  buoyant force

Now add the buoyant force of the balloon to find the weight

             43 364  +   14.14 * 1027 = 57885.8   kg

Meteoric material dates the formation of the solar system at about_____ billion years.
Alja [10]

According to meteoric material, the solar system was formed around <u>4.6 billion years</u> ago.

<h3>What substance makes up a meteorite?</h3>
  • With just trace levels of sulphide and carbide minerals, they are primarily composed of iron-nickel metal.
  • Many asteroids melted during the radioactive element decay in the early solar system, and the iron they carried, being dense, sank to the centre to create a metallic core.
<h3>What is the term for meteorite metal?</h3>
  • Meteoric iron, also known as meteoritic iron, is a native metal and a protoplanetary-disk remnant from the early universe that is found in meteorites.
  • It is mostly composed of the metals iron and nickel, primarily in the crystalline phases kamacite and taenite.

Readme [11.4K]
Had to look for the options and here is my answer.
The statement that is considered correct regarding a wave that is propagating along the pavement and girders of a suspension bridge is this: "t<span>he wave is mechanical, with particles vibrating in a direction that is perpendicular to that of the wave, forming compressions and rarefactions." Hope this helps.</span>
