An astronaut on Earth notes that in her soft drink an ice cube floats with 9/10 of its volume submerged. If she were instead in

a lunar module parked on the Moon where the gravitation force is 1/6 that of Earth, the ice in the same soft drink would float:A) with more than 9/10 submerged. B) with 9/10 submerged.C) with 6/10 submerged.D) totally submerged.

Answer:

B) with 9/10 submerged

Explanation:

m = mass of ice cube

\rho = density of soft drink

V = Volume of soft drink displaced

ice cube floats in the soft drink when the force of buoyancy on it balances its weight. Force of buoyancy acting on the cube in upward direction is same as the weight of the soft drink displaced. hence we can write

weight of ice cube = weight of soft drink displaced

mg = \rho V g

m = \rho V

we see that the acceleration due to gravity cancel out both side and hence it does affect as astronaut is on earth on in a lunar module.

Answer:

Explanation:

Volume of ice block submerged om earth = 9 / 10

According to the floating principle

The weight of the body is balanced by the buoyant force acting on the block.

Let V be the total volume of the block and d be the density of ice and ρ be the density of soft drink.

So, V x d x g = 9 / 10 V x ρ x g

So g cancels out from both the sides.

If we place the ice cube in soft drink on the surface of moon, then the volume submerged remains same.

In a double slit experiment, if the separation between the two slits is 0.050 mm and the distance from the slits to a screen is
meriva

The spacing between the first-order and second-order bright fringes is 3 cm. Hence, this is the required solution.

<h3>What is double slit experiment?</h3>

The double-slit experiment serves as a proof in current physics that both light and matter may exhibit properties of classically defined waves and particles. It also illustrates the inherently probabilistic nature of quantum mechanical events. Thomas Young carried out the first experiment of this kind employing light in 1802, illustrating how light behaves like a wave. It was formerly believed that light was made up of either waves or particles. About a century later, with the advent of modern physics, it was discovered that light may in fact exhibit behaviour like that of both waves and particles. The identical behaviour of electrons was first shown by Davisson and Germer in 1927, and it was later extended to atoms and molecules.

The separation between the slits, d = 0.05mm = 5×10⁻⁵ m

The distance from the slits to a screen, D = 2.5 m

Let x is the spacing between the first-order and second-order bright fringes when coherent light of wavelength 600 nm illuminates the slits,

λ = 600nm = 6× 10⁻⁷ m  

We know that the bright fringe is given by :

y = nλD/d

So, the spacing between the first-order and second-order bright fringes is :

x = 2λD/d - λD/d

x =  λD/d

x = 6 × 10⁻⁷ × 2.5/5 × 10⁻⁵

x = 0.03 m

or

x = 3 cm

So, the spacing between the first-order and second-order bright fringes is 3 cm. Hence, this is the required solution.

Analogue signals transmit information for such things as _____________.
ivann1987 [24]

Transmission of information in ANY form can be done digitally
or analoguely.

Beginning about 30 years ago, everything slowly started changing
to digital.  Today, all commercial satellite communication, all optical
fiber communication, all internet communication, all computer
communication, all commercial cable communication, all commercial
television, and much of the telephone system, are all digital. 

On your computer ... .pdf,  .jpg, .mp3  etc.  are all digital methods of
moving and storing information.

AM and FM radio are an interesting subject.  They're all still analog.
They could easily be changed to all digital, and it would be a big
improvement, both for the broadcasters and for the listeners. 
BUT ... every AM and FM radio that anybody has now would be
obsolete.   Every single radio would either need to be replaced,
OR you'd need to add a digital decoder to every radio, like we
had to do with our TV sets a few years ago when television
suddenly became all digital.  With AM and FM radios, the decoders
would be bigger, and would cost more, than most of the radios.

And that's why commercial radio broadcasting is still analog.

How would your body be affected involuntary action.
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

the human brain is responsible for involuntary activities, such as regulating heartbeat, breathing, and blinking. Although the brain controls both voluntary and involuntary activities, different regions of the brain are devoted to each type of task.

Both involuntary and voluntary actions are controlled by the same parts of the brain. Hindbrain and midbrain control involuntary actions like salivation, vomiting, etc. All the body's voluntary actions are controlled by the motor cortex in the frontal lobe of the cerebrum.
