Density of rock = 3.23 Kg/m^3

Given:

mass of Moon rock = 8.94 kg

apparent mass of Moon rock = 6.18 kg

To Find:

density of the rock

Solution: It is a universal fact that mass of an object remains constant whether measured on earth or on moon.

Mass of rock on moon/earth = 8.94 kg

When the block is immersed in water then;

Loss in weight = weight of water displaced

Loss in weight = 8.94 - 6.18 = 2.76 kg

As we know that water has a density of 1g/cm^3 (1000kg/m^3)

Volume of water = volume of the rock = Mass/density = 2.76 kg

density of rock mass/volume = 8.94/2.76 = 3.23 Kg/m^3

Density of rock = 3.23 Kg/m^3

The wavelength of red helium-neon laser light in air is 632.8 nm.(a) What is its frequency?(b) What is its wavelength in glass t
inn [45]

(a) 4.74 \cdot 10^{14}Hz

The frequency of a wave is given by:

f=\frac{v}{\lambda}

where

v is the wave's speed

\lambda is the wavelength

For the red laser light in this problem, we have

v=c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s (speed of light)

\lambda=632.8 nm=632.8\cdot 10^{-9} m

Substituting,

f=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{632.8 \cdot 10^{-9} m}=4.74 \cdot 10^{14}Hz

(b) 427.6 nm

The wavelength of the wave in the glass is given by

\lambda=\frac{\lambda_0}{n}

where

\lambda_0 = 632.8\cdot 10^{-9} m is the original wavelength of the wave in air

n = 1.48 is the refractive index of glass

Substituting into the formula,

\lambda=\frac{632.8\cdot 10^{-9}m}{1.48}=427.6\cdot 10^{-9}m=427.6 nm

(c) 2.02\cdot 10^8 m/s

The speed of the wave in the glass is given by

v=\frac{c}{n}

where

c = 3\cdot 10^8 m/s is the original speed of the wave in air

n = 1.48 is the refractive index of glass

Substituting into the formula,

v=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{1.48}=2.02\cdot 10^8 m/s

3. How is using a model to study cells helpful?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Yes, it is very helpful.

Explanation:

It's helpful since in a cell, plant or animal, there are a lot of different things. It's hard to memorize everything and know what they look like. Using a model can help you memorize everything better and even understand it better. If someone asked me where or what something was in a cell I think I would be able to recognize it better.

I hope this helps!

Can the boiling point of water exceed 100c
lisabon 2012 [21]
Superheated water is liquid water under pressure at temperatures between the usual boiling point, 100c (212 F ) and the critical temperature , 374 C (705F) . It is also known as “subcritical water”
Or “pressurized hot water”.

A woman experiences an electrical shock. The electrons making the shock come from the A woman experiences an electrical shock. T
Zinaida [17]

The electrons making the shock come from the women's body.

<h3>What is Electric shock ?</h3>

When a high voltage current flows through the body, electrical shock results. When someone unintentionally touches an electrical source, this typically occurs. Treatment for both internal and exterior burns may be necessary as part of the aftercare.

The nervous system may be impacted by a shock.

The tissue that makes up nerves presents extremely minimal resistance to the flow of an electric charge. Electric shocks that impact nerves can cause pain, tingling, numbness, weakness, or trouble moving a limb. These effects might disappear with time or remain for good.

How to Prevent from Electrical Shocks –

  • Keep the Appliances Away from Moisture and Water.
  • Never Connect or Disconnect Under Load.
  • Be Careful with Capacitors.
  • Use Insulated Tools.
  • Turn Off the Power.
  • Check for Improper or Faulty Wiring.
  • Fix Extension Cord Problems.
