SOVA2 [1]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Bouyancy

Explanation:

Bouyancy occurs when the upthrust exerted on an object is equal to the weight of object displaced. It is mostly applicable to low density objects for example balloon. When balloon is displaced in water, it floats. This is due to the effect of the upthrust acting on the balloon which allows the balloon to float and which is opposite the weight.

Note that the weight acts downwards the object while the upthrust always acts opposite (upward)

Please help with these physics problems 1. A soccer ball is dropped from the top of a building. It takes 5.8 seconds to fall to
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

1.) h = 164.8 m

2.) U = 49.1 m/s

3.) t = 1.43 seconds

Explanation:

1.) A soccer ball is dropped from the top of a building. It takes 5.8 seconds to fall to the ground. The height of the building is...? 

Since the soccer ball is dropped from the building, the initial velocity U will be equal to zero

Using second equation of motion

h = Ut + 1/2gt^2

Substitutes the time into the formula

h = 1/2 × 9.8 × 5.8^2

h = 164.8 m

2. The Falcon 9 launches to a height of 123 meters. What is its vertical initial velocity?

At maximum height final velocity = 0

Using the third law of motion

V^2 = U^2 - 2gH

0 = U^2 - 2 × 9.8 × 123

U^2 = 2410.8

U = 49.1 m/s

3. An apple falls from rest off a 10.m m tree. How long will it take before it hits the ground?

Since the apple fall from rest, the initial velocity U will be equal to zero

Using the second equation of motion,

h = Ut + 1/2gt^2

substitute all the parameters into the formula

10 = 1/2 × 9.8 × t^2

10 = 4.9t^2

t^2 = 10/4.9

t^2 = 2.04

t = 1.43 seconds

Calculate the mass (in g) of 346 cm³ of polythene. The density of polythene is 0.95 g/cm³. Give your answer to 2 decimal places.
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

M = 328.70g

Explanation:

From the given values:

V = 346 cm³

M of 1 cm³ of Polythene = 0.95g or 95/100g

Solve:

M = <u>(95×346)</u>

10

= <u>3</u><u>2</u><u>8</u><u>7</u><u>0</u>

100

M = 328.70g

During an exothermic reaction; light and heat are released into the environment.

An exothermic reaction is one in which heat is released to the environment. This heat can be physically observed sometimes like in an a combustion reaction.

In an exothermic reaction, the enthalpy of the reactants is greater than the enthalpy of the products.

This heat lost is sometimes felt as the hotness of the vessel in which the reaction has taken place.

In conclusion, light and heat are released into the environment in an exothermic reaction.
