Answer: The ice cube would float on top of the water and the rock would sink to the bottom.
Explanation: The ice cube has a smaller density than the rock which allows the ice cube to float but makes the rock sink to the bottom of the glass of water.
Answer:
T1 = 131.4 [N]
T2 = 261 [N]
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must make a sketch of how will be the semicircle, for this reason we conducted an internet search, to find the scheme of the problem. This scheme is attached in the first image.
Then we make a free body diagram, with this free body diagram, we raise the forces that act on the body. Since it is a problem involving static equilibrium, the sum of forces in any direction and moments must be equal to zero.
By performing a sum of forces on the Y axis equal to zero we can find an equation that relates the forces of tension T1 & T2.
The second equation can be determined by summing moments equal to zero, around the point of application of the T1 force. In this way we find the T2 force.
The value of T2, is replaced in the first equation and we can find the value for T1.
Therefore
T1 = 131.4 [N]
T2 = 261 [N]
The free body diagram and the developed equations can be seen in the second attached image.
Answer:
C) Pressure will compress a gas, reducing its volume and giving it a greater density and concentration of particles.
Explanation:
At constant temperature, pressure and volume are inversely related.
P V = constant

As the pressure increases, the gas compresses, the particles come closer reducing the volume of gas.
As we know, with decrease in volume, density increases.


Thus, the pressure of a gas is directly related to concentration of particles. Increase in pressure causes increase in concentration of the particles.
The ironwood will because it it more heavy and the others are not
The higher the amount is the more possible it is to sink
Hope this helped
