Salt is now added to the water in the bucket, increasing the density of the liquid. what happens to the tension in the string ?

1 answer:

5 0

The question involves a ping-pong ball that is held submerged in a bucket by a string attached to the bottom of the bucket.

The answer is the tension of the string will increase. This is because making the water salty increases its density, and consequently, increases its buoyancy. This is why sea water is more buoyant than fresh water. Therefore the ping pong is pushed more upwards by the water when salt is added than initially. This gives the string more tension.

What distance does light travel in water, glass, and diamond during the time that it travels 1.0 m in vacuum? The refractive ind

lidiya [134]

Answer:

refractive index for water,glass,diamond are 0.752m, 0.667m, 0.413m respectively

Explanation:

refractive index (n) = $\frac{velocity of light in air/vacuum}{velocity of light in substance}$

velocity = $\frac{distance}{time}$

The time for travel is kept constant for all mediums.

refractive index (n) = $\frac{\frac{distance in vacuum}{time} }{\frac{distance in medium}{time} }\\ \\=\frac{distance in vacuum}{distance in medium}$

distance in medium = $\frac{distance in vacuum}{refractive index of medium}$

$S_{medium} = \frac{S_{vacuum} }{n_{medium} }$

For water, n= 1.33

$S_{water} = \frac{1 }{1.33}$

$S_{water} = 0.752m$

For glass, n=1.5

$S_{glass}= \frac{1 }{1.5}$

$S_{glass} = 0.667m$

For diamond, n= 2.42

$S_{diamond} = \frac{1 }{2.42}$

$S_{diamond} = 0.413m$

K donates, or transfers, one electron to bromine, which has 7 electrons. Both K and Br are now stable with 8 electrons. K become

Charra [1.4K]

K is cation by losing of electron whereas Br is anion due to accepting of electrons.

<h3 /><h3>Is charge appears when an atom lose or accept electron?</h3>

Yes, the positive ion appears on K and become cation whereas the negative ion bears on Br which make it anion because of losing and gaining of electron by these atoms. This transferring of electrons leads to formation of ionic bonds between them.

So we can conclude that K is cation by losing of electron whereas Br is anion due to accepting of electrons.

A 30.0 kg dolphin decelerates from 12.0 to 7.00 m/s in 2.60 s to join another dolphin in play. What average force (in N) was exe

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Force is 57.69 N to the opposite direction of motion of dolphin.

Explanation:

We have force is the product of mass and acceleration.

That is

Force = Mass x Acceleration

F = ma

Mass of dolphin, m = 30 kg

We have equation of motion, v = u + at

Final velocity, v = 7 m/s

Initial velocity, u = 12 m/s

Time, t = 2.60 s

Substituting

7 = 12 + a x 2.6

a = -1.92 m/s²

Force, F = 30 x -1.92 = -57.69 N

So the force is 57.69 N to the opposite direction of motion of dolphin.

Say I have a series circuit with 20v and four 65 ohm resistors, what is the current in each resistor?

Komok [63]

Data:

$E = 20 V$
$R_{1} = 65\Omega$
$R_{2} = 65\Omega$
$R_{3} = 65\Omega$
$R_{4} = 65\Omega$

<span>Now that we have all the values we need properly identified, simply calculate the equivalent total resistance of the circuit and the intensity of the total electric current using the Ohm's Law:

</span> $R_{T} = R_{1} + R_{2} + R_{3} + R_{4}$
$R_{T} = 65 + 65 + 65+ 65$
$R_{T} = 260\Omega$

<span>Like this:
</span>
$I_{T} = \frac{E}{ R_{T} }$

$I_{T} = \frac{20}{ 260 }$
$I_{T} = 0,076923076...$

$\boxed{\boxed{I_{T} \approx 0,07A}}$
Answer:
<span>The intensity of the total electric current
</span> $\boxed{\boxed{I_{T} \approx 0,07A}}$

P.S:. Since the association is in series, the current of 0.07A is the same for all resistors.
