3 0

Answer:

$\tt \: mass \: = \frac{weight}{acceleration \: due \: to \: gravity}$

$\longrightarrow \tt \: \frac{150}{10}$

$\longrightarrow \boxed{ \tt{15 \: kg}}$

Our final answer is 15 kg .

A hollow plastic sphere is held below the surface of a fresh-water lake by a cord anchored to the bottom of the lake. The sphere

Naya [18.7K]

Answer: a) B = 6811N

b) m = 603.2kg

c) 86.8%

Explanation: <em>Buoyant force</em> is a force a fluid exerts on a submerged object.

It can be calculated as:

$B=\rho_{fluid}.V_{obj}.g$

where:

$\rho_{fluid}$ is density of the fluid the object is in;

$V_{obj}$ is volume of the object;

g is acceleration due to gravity, is constant and equals 9.8m/s²

a) For the hollow plastic sphere, density of water is 1000kg/m³:

$B=10^{3}.0.695.9.8$

B = 6811N

b) Anchored to the bottom, the forces acting on the sphere are <u>Buoyant</u>, <u>Tension</u> and <u>Force due to gravity</u>:

B = T + $F_{g}$

B = T + mg

mg = B - T

$m=\frac{B - T}{g}$

Calculating:

$m=\frac{6811 - 900}{9.8}$

m = 603.2kg

c) When the shpere comes to rest on the surface of the water, there are only <u>buoyant</u> <u>and</u> <u>gravity</u> acting on it:

B = m.g

$\rho_{w}.V_{sub}.g=m.g$

$V_{sub}=\frac{m}{\rho_{w}}$

$V_{sub}=\frac{603.2}{1000}$

$V_{sub}$ = 0.6032m³

Fraction of the submerged volume is:

$\frac{V_{sub}}{V_{obj}}$ = $\frac{0.6932}{0.695}$ = 0.868

A bowling ball is on the end of a rope of length 5 meters, the other end of which is attached to a hook in the ceiling. The ball

Answer:

$a = 0\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

Explanation:

Let consider the following system, which is described in the image attached below and two reference axis, one parallel and the other perpendicular to the direction of motion. The corresponding equations of equilibrium are described herein:

$\Sigma F_{n} = T - m\cdot g \cdot \cos \theta = 0$

$\Sigma F_{t} = m\cdot g \cdot \sin \theta = m\cdot a$

The acceleration of the bowling ball at the lowest point occurs at $\theta = 0^{\textdegree}$

$m\cdot g \cdot \sin \theta = m\cdot a$

$g\cdot \sin \theta = a$

$a = 0\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$
