Taking into account the definition of density, the density of the rock is 3.6583 g/mL.

<h3>Definition of density</h3>

Density is defined as the property that matter has to compress into a given space.

In other words, density is a quantity that allows us to measure the amount of mass in a certain volume of a substance.

The expression for the calculation of density is:

density= mass÷ volume

From this expression it can be deduced that density is inversely proportional to volume: the smaller the volume occupied by a given mass, the higher the density.

<h3>Density of the rock</h3>

In this case, you know that:

  • Mass= 88.53 g
  • Volume of the rock= Volume after place the rock in the water - Volume of water= 74.2 mL - 50 mL= 24.2 mL

Replacing in the definition of density:

density of rock= 88.53 g÷ 24.2 mL

Solving:

<u><em>density of rock= 3.6583 g/mL</em></u>

In summary, the density of the rock is 3.6583 g/mL.

Consider a river flowing toward a lake at an average speed of 3 m/s at a rate of 550 m3/s at a location 58 m above the lake surf
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

1. 0.574 kJ/kg

2. 315.7 MW

Explanation:

1. The mechanical energy per unit mass of the river is given by:

E_{m} = E_{k} + E_{p}

E_{m} = \frac{1}{2}v^{2} + gh

Where:

Ek is the kinetic energy

Ep is the potential energy

v is the speed of the river = 3 m/s

g is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h is the height = 58 m

E_{m} = \frac{1}{2}(3 m/s)^{2} + 9.81 m/s^{2}*58 m = 0.574 kJ/Kg

Hence, the total mechanical energy of the river is 0.574 kJ/kg.

2. The power generation potential on the river is:

P = m(t)E_{m} = \rho*V(t)*E_{m} = 1000 kg/m^{3}*550 m^{3}/s*0.574 kJ/kg = 315.7 MW

Therefore, the power generation potential of the entire river is 315.7 MW.

I hope it helps you!

A uniform solid sphere has a moment of inertia I about an axis tangent to its surface. What is the moment of inertia of this sph
arsen [322]

Answer:

option E

Explanation:

given,

I is moment of inertia about an axis tangent to its surface.

moment of inertia about the center of mass

I_{CM} = \dfrac{2}{5}mR^2.....(1)

now, moment of inertia about tangent

I= \dfrac{2}{5}mR^2 + mR^2

I= \dfrac{7}{5}mR^2...........(2)

dividing equation (1)/(2)

\dfrac{I_{CM}}{I}= \dfrac{\dfrac{2}{5}mR^2}{\dfrac{7}{5}mR^2}

\dfrac{I_{CM}}{I}=\dfrac{2}{7}

I_{CM}=\dfrac{2}{7}I

the correct answer is option E

Moving a charged object against an electrical force causes it to
Alinara [238K]

Decelerate

<u>Explanation:</u>

If a charged object is moving against an electric force, the electric force would cause the charged object to decelerate. Rate of deceleration would depend on the amount of the charge the object posses and amount of the opposing electric force.

This could be understood by visualising a hypothetical situation where a charged object is moving against an electric force. Since the object is charged, it would exert a force in its direction of motion which would be opposed by the electric force, thus causing it to decelerate
