An apple is held completely submerged just below the surface of water in a container. The apple is then moved to a deeper point

in the water. Compared with the force needed to hold the apple just below the surface, what is the force needed to hold it at the deeper point?
Physics

Tresset [83]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

When the apple is held submerged in water , it experiences a buoyant force due to which it floats in water . One has to apply downward force to keep it submerged. The lower the buoyant force , lower the force needed to submerge it in water.

When apple is held at much deeper point , it experience greater pressure due to column of water around it . So its size or its volume decreases . But its weight remains the same . Due to less volume , buoyant force also decreases ( buoyant force is equal to weight of displaced volume of water. )

Due to buoyant force becoming less , force needed on apple  in downward direction will also be less.

All of the following equations are statements of the ideal gas law except
elena55 [62]

Answer:

a. P = nRTV

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

"All of the following equations are statements of the ideal gas law except a. P = nRTV b. PV/T = nR c. P/n = RT/v d. R = PV/nT"

Ideal gas equation is an equation that describes the nature of an ideal gas. The molecule of an ideal gas moves at a particular velocity depending on the temperature. This gases collides with one another elastically. The collision that an ideal gas experience is a perfectly elastic collision.

The ideal gas equation is expressed as shown:

PV = nRT where:

P is the pressure of the gas

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

R is the ideal gas constant

T is the temperature.

Based on the formula given for an ideal gas, it can be inferred that the equation. P = nRTV is not a statement of an ideal gas equation.

The remaining option will results to an ideal gas equation if they are cross multipled.

An object, when pushed with a net force F, has an acceleration of 4 m/s . Now twice the force is applied to an object that has f
hjlf

Answer:

B. 2 m/s

B. Acceleration = 4.05 m/s² and Tension = 297.5 N.

Explanation:

A force is applied on a mass m whose acceleration is 4 m/s

Force = mass × acceleration

a = F/m = 4 m/s

4 m/s = F/m

F = 4 m/s (m)

If  Force of 2F is applied on a mass of 4m ; it acceleration is as follows:

2F/4 m = F/ 2m

4m/s (m) / 2m = 2 m/s

a = 2 m/s

2.

Given that

mass m_1 = 30 kg

mass m_2 = 50 kg

\mu = 0.1

From the question; we can arrive at two cases;

That :

m_{2} a _ \ {net} }= m_2g - T   ----- equation (1)

m_{1} a _ \ {net} }=  T - mg sin \theta  - F ---- equation (2)

50 a = 50 g - T

30 a = T - 30 g sin 30 - 4 × 30 g cos 30

By summation

80 a =[ 50  - 30 * \frac{1}{2} - 0.1 *30* \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}]g

80 a = 32. 4 × 10 m/s ²  (using g as 10m/s²)

80 a = 324 m/s ²

a = 324/80

a = 4.05 m/s²

From equation , replace a with 4.05

50 × 4.05 = 50 × 10 - T

T = 500 -202.5

T =297.5 N

A person holds a ladder horizontally at its center. Treating the ladder as a uniform rod of length 4.15 m and mass 7.98 kg, find
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

4.535 N.m

Explanation:

To solve this question, we're going to use the formula for moment of inertia

I = mL²/12

Where

I = moment of inertia

m = mass of the ladder, 7.98 kg

L = length of the ladder, 4.15 m

On solving we have

I = 7.98 * (4.15)² / 12

I = (7.98 * 17.2225) / 12

I = 137.44 / 12

I = 11.45 kg·m²

That is the moment of inertia about the center.

Using this moment of inertia, we multiply it by the angular acceleration to get the needed torque. So that

τ = 11.453 kg·m² * 0.395 rad/s²

τ = 4.535 N·m

kramer
Chameleon's tongue is more fast than thought. Its long sticky tongue moves at an amazing ballistic speed which lashes out unsuspecting insects and bugs. Now let us see how fast it is.

GIven:

acceleration of the chameleon's tongue- 260 m/s
2 for 20 ms
constant speed 30 ms
50 ms total time
1/20 of a second

solution:

<u>260</u> = <u>  n</u><u>  </u>
20       50
<u>20 n </u>= <u>13, 000</u>
20            20
n= 650 m/s

The transfer of energy is potential energy to kinetic energy. The swing has potential energy when she pulls it back and once she lets go, allowing the swing to move, it then has kinetic energy.
