1. To obtain the volume of a regular-shaped cube, we simply use the formula.

2. To find the volume of an irregular shaped object, we simply use displace method

<h3>Volume of regular shape cube</h3>

The volume of a cube can be obtained by using the formula below:

Volume = Length × Width × Height

<h3>Volume of irregular object</h3>

The volume of irregular objects can be obtained by using displacement method as illustrated below:

Volume of water = 20 mL
Volume of water + stone = 25 mL
Volume of stone =?

Volume of stone = (Volume of water + stone) - (volume of water)

Volume of stone = 25 - 20

Volume of stone = 5 mL

Thus, we can see that the volume of regular objects can be obtained by using their formulas whereas, the volume of irregular objects can be obtained by using displacement method.

How can doing work on an object increase its kinetic energy?

Lyrx [107]

Answer:If the object's speed increases.

Explanation:

If the object's speed increases, then its kinetic energy will increase. If the kinetic energy increases, the change in kinetic energy will be positive.

A building made with a steel structure is 565 m high on a winter day when the temperature is 0◦F. How much taller is the buildin

anyanavicka [17]

To solve this problem we apply the thermodynamic equations of linear expansion in bodies.

Mathematically the change in the length of a body is subject to the mathematical expression

$\Delta L = L_0 \alpha \Delta T$

Where,

$L_0 =$ Initial Length

$\alpha =$ Thermal expansion coefficient

$\Delta T =$ Change in temperature

Since we have values in different units we proceed to transform the temperature to degrees Celsius so

$0\°F \Rightarrow (0-32)*\frac{5}{9} = -17.77\°C$

$103\°F \Rightarrow (103-32)*(\frac{5}{9})= 39.44\°C$

The coefficient of thermal expansion given is

$\alpha = 1.1*10^{-5}/\°C$

The initial length would be,

$L_0 = 565m$

Replacing we have to,

$\Delta L = L_0 \alpha \Delta T$

$\Delta L = (565)(1.1*10^{-5})(39.44-(-17.77))$

$\Delta L = 0.355m$

This means that the building will be 35.5cm taller

A disk is uniformly accelerated from rest with angular acceleration α. The magnitude of the linear acceleration of a point on th

solniwko [45]

Answer:

$a = R\alpha\sqrt{1 + \alpha^2t^4}$

Explanation:

As we know that the acceleration of a point on the rim of the disc is in two directions

1) tangential acceleration which is given as

$a_t = R\alpha$

2) Centripetal acceleration

$a_c = \omega^2 R$

here we know that

$\omega = \alpha t$

$a_c = (\alpha t)^2 R$

now we know that net linear acceleration is given as

$a = \sqrt{a_c^2 + a_t^2}$

so we have

$a = \sqrt{R^2\alpha^2 + R^2(\alpha t)^4}$

$a = R\alpha\sqrt{1 + \alpha^2t^4}$

Student one used bowling ball A in a bowling game against Student 2, who used bowling ball B. Use Newton’s Three Laws of Motion

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Newton’s Three Laws of Motion has a great impact.

Explanation:

Newton’s Three Laws of Motion has a great impact on the bowling game for the 2 students. When the student one throw ball to the student 2, the ball decrease its speed due to the gravity and opposing air. If these forces are removed from the system the ball will continue its motion till another force is applied on it. When the force applied to the ball it produces acceleration in the direction to the applied force. If the ball touches the ground it bounce back with equal force which is a reaction of the ground.
