Given two objects of the same mass but of different sizes, the one that has a greater density is: a. the smaller object

Due to the density of an object is the relation that exist between the mass and the space that the object occupies, if we have two objects with the same mass the one that is going to have a greater density is the smaller object because it occupies less space with more mass.  

We can prove it using the density formula to solve the following exercise:

Two objects have a mass of  100 g, and their volume are 20 cm³ and 10 cm³ respectively, what is the density of each one?

The general formula of the density is:

d = m/v

Where:

  • d= density
  • m= mass
  • v= volume

Information about the problem:

  • m = 100 g
  • v1= 20 cm³
  • v2=10 cm³
  • d1=?
  • d2?

Applying the density  formula we get:

d = m/v

d1 = 100g/20 cm³

d1 = 5g/cm³

d2 = 100g/10 cm³

d2 = 10g/cm³

With the results we can confirm that the object that has the greater density is the smaller, because it has less volume.

<h3>What is density?</h3>

It is a physical quantity that expresses the ratio of the body mass to the volume it occupies.

Answer:

C = 1.01

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass, m = 75 kg

The terminal velocity of the mass, v_t=60\ m/s

Area of cross section, A=0.33\ m^2

We need to find the drag coefficient. At terminal velocity, the weight is balanced by the drag on the object. So,

R = W

or

\dfrac{1}{2}\rho CAv_t^2=mg

Where

\rho is the density of air = 1.225 kg/m³

C is drag coefficient

So,

C=\dfrac{2mg}{\rho Av_t^2}\\\\C=\dfrac{2\times 75\times 9.8}{1.225\times 0.33\times (60)^2}\\\\C=1.01

So, the drag coefficient is 1.01.

Problem A spring was at its resting position where it is attached to a wall at its left side and a block at its right side as sh
puteri [66]

Answer:

F = 19.1 N

Explanation:

To find the force exerted by the string on the block you use the following formula:

F=kx  (1)  

k: spring constant = 95.5 N/m

x: displacement of the block from its equilibrium position = 0.200 m

you replace the values of k and x in the equation (1):

F=(95.5N/m)(0.200m)=19.1N

Hence, the force exterted on the block is 19.1 N

A 10-kg object is pushed across a rough surface. It begins at rest and accelerates to a speed of 4 m/s in a distance of 5m. Whic
brilliants [131]

Answer:

Explanation:

Unbalanced Force according to newton's second law is the one which causes  the object to move or break its state of rest on application of force.

Here the object accelerate to a speed of 4 m/s and moves a distance of 5 m on application of force .

Thus we can say that the applied force is unbalanced in nature.

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Initial Velocity, u = 0 km/s (at rest)

Final Velocity, v = 16 km/s

Time taken, t = 3 sec

acceleration, a = (v - u)/t

= (16 - 0)/3

= 5.33 km/s^2
