A 0.8 kg object displaces 500 mL of water. What is its specific gravity?

Physics
1 answer:
Airida [17]3 years ago
8 0
The specific gravity is how the density of the object compares to the density of water. Water's density is 1gram per milliliter. We just need to figure out the density of the object.

The object is .8 kg and it displaces 500mL of water, so the density is the mass divided by the volume. Since the density of water is given in grams, we have to convert the objects mass from kg to g and then we can get the density.

.8kg * 1000g/kg = 800 grams

So

800g/500ml = 1.6grams/mL this is the density.

So divide the density of your object by the density of water, which is 1g/mL, you get 1.6 as the specific gravity. This means the object is 1.6 times more dense than water.

When you take pictures with a camera, the distance between the lens and the film or chip has to be adjusted, depending on the di
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

When a camera shifts focus from a faraway object to a nearby object, the lens-to-film distance must increase. Likewise, when it shifts focus from a nearby object to a distant object, there must be an increase in the lens to film distance (that is, the image distance).

Therefore, if the picture of an object that is far away, the lens must move towards the film.

The focal length cannot be changed because it is fixed for a lens. Nevertheless, in order to focus on an object, the image distance can be changed.

The electric current in a wire is 1.5A. How many electrons flow past a given point in a time of 2s?
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The amount of electrons that flow in the given time is 3.0 C.

Explanation:

An electric current is defined as the ratio of the quantity of charge flowing through a conductor to the time taken.

i.e           I = \frac{Q}{t} ...................(1)

It is measure in Amperes and can be measured in the laboratory by the use of an ammeter.

In the given question, I = 1.5A, t = 2s, find Q.

From equation 1,

            Q = I × t

                = 1.5 × 2

               = 3.0 Coulombs

The amount of electrons that flow in the given time is 3.0 C.
