How could you improve your boat design to increase the buoyant force without using more clay?

Widening the boat or creating a boat with thinner clay walls could result in a greater displacement of water, and increased buoyancy.

<h3>Buoyancy:</h3>

The Greek mathematician and inventor Archimedes discovered the physical law of buoyancy, which states that any body completely or partially submerged in a fluid (gas or liquid) at rest is subject to an upward, or buoyant, force whose magnitude is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the body.

The volume of fluid that has been displaced is equal to the volume of an object that is completely submerged in the liquid or to the portion of the volume below the surface for an object that is only partially submerged. The buoyant force's strength is equal to the weight of the fluid that has been dispersed. A body floating in a liquid or gas experiences an analogous buoyant force.

The buoyant force acting on a body floating in a liquid or gas is opposite in direction and of a magnitude equal to the weight of the body; the body neither rises nor falls as a result. For instance, when a ship is launched, it sinks into the ocean until the water it moves is exactly equal to its own weight. The buoyant force continuously equals the weight of the ship and its cargo because when the ship is laden, it descends farther and moves more water.

An object moving in the xy-plane is subjected to the force f⃗ =(2xyı^ 3yȷ^)n, where x and y are in m
Svetllana [295]

The magnitude of the work done by force experience by the object is (2a²b + 3b²)J.

<h3>Work done by the force experienced  by the object</h3>

The magnitude of the work done by force experience by the object is calculated as follows;

W = f.d

where;

  • F is the applied force (2xyi + 3yj), where x and y are in meters
  • d is the displacement of the object = (a, b)

The work done by the force is determined from the dot product of the force and the displacement of the object.

F = (2xyi + 3yj).(a + b)

W = (2abi + 3bj).(ai + bj)

W = (2a²b + 3b²)J

Thus, the magnitude of the work done by force experience by the object is (2a²b + 3b²)J.

The complete question is below:

The particle moves from the origin to the point with coordinates (a, b) by moving first along the x-axis to (a, 0), then parallel to the y-axis.

How much work does the force do?

Alla [95]

Answer:

3, 5, 1, 4, 2

Explanation:

When the body needs to move, certain muscles need to be stimulated in order to perform a certain movement. There is a process that is followed that starts with the brain sending a signal, and ends with the movement being performed by the body.

3. This is the first step, because a pathway needs to be established before any electric impulses can be sent. Hence, the upper motor neurons in the premotor cortex <u>need to choose a pathway</u> (known as a motor program).

5. This is the second step, because once a pathway has been established, a <u>signal needs to be sent</u> down that pathway. Hence, the basal nuclei enable the thalamus to stimulate the upper motor neurons to send an electrical impulse down the pathway.

1. This is the third step, because once the upper motor neurons have been stimulated, they send an electrical impulse to stimulate the lower motor neurons.

4. This is the forth step, because once the electrical impulse reaches the lower motor neurons, they pass the impulse to a certain group of skeletal muscles, causing them to contract.

2. This is the final step, because once the skeletal muscles have contracted, the <u>body has completed its movement</u>. However, once the body has moved, sensory information is relayed to the cerebellum to <u>ensure that the correct movement is made</u>, and if it needs to be adjusted, then the whole process will start again in order to correct the movement.

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Explanation:

The cannonball goes a horizontal  distance of 275 m . It travels a vertical distance of 100 m

Time taken to cover vertical distance =  t ,

Initial velocity u = 0

distance s = 100 m

acceleration a = 9.8 m /s²

s = ut + 1/2 g t²

100 = .5 x 9.8 x t²

t = 4.51 s

During this time it travels horizontally also uniformly so

horizontal velocity Vx = horizontal displacement / time

= 275 / 4.51 = 60.97 m /s

Vertical velocity Vy

Vy = u + gt

= 0 + 9.8 x 4.51

= 44.2 m /s

Resultant velocity

V = √ ( 44.2² + 60.97² )

= √ ( 1953.64 + 3717.34 )

= 75.3 m /s

Angle with horizontal Ф

TanФ = Vy / Vx

= 44.2 / 60.97

= .725

Ф = 36⁰ .
