A 10-kg piece of aluminum sits at the bottom of a lake, right next to a 10-kg piece of lead, which is much denser than aluminum.

Which one has the greater buoyant force on it?
Physics

Answer:

Aluminium

Explanation:

When a body is immersed in a liquid partly or wholly it experiences an upward force which is called buoyant force.

The amount of buoyant force depends on the volume of body immersed, density of liquid and the value of acceleration due to gravity.

Here, the density of liquid is same in both the cases and g be the same. So, here the amount of buoyant force depends on the volume of body immersed.

As the density of lead is more than the density of aluminium, so the volume of aluminium is more than lead, as volume is equal to mass divided by density. So, the buoyant force acting on the aluminium is more than lead.

wel

If an electron, a proton, and a deuteron move in a magnetic field with the same momentum perpendicularly, the ratio of the radii of their circular paths will be:

  • 1: √2 : 1

<h3>How is the ratio of the perpendicular parts obtained?</h3>

To obtain the ratio of the perpendicular parts, one begins bdy noting that the mass of the proton = 1m, the mass of deuteron = 2m, and the mass of the alpha particle  = 4m.

The ratio of the radii of the parts can be obtained by finding the root of the masses and dividing this by the charge. When the coefficients are substituted into the formula, we will have:

r = √m/e : √2m/e : √4m/2e

When resolved, the resulting ratios will be:

1: √2 : 1

Using energy considerations, calculate the average force (in N) a 62.0 kg sprinter exerts backward on the track to accelerate fr
slava [35]

Answer:

69.68 N

Explanation:

Work done is equal to change in kinetic energy

W = ΔK = Kf - Ki = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{f}  - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{i}

W = F_{total} .d

where m = mass of the sprinter

vf = final velocity

vi = initial velocity

W  = workdone

kf = final kinetic energy

ki = initial kinetic energy

d = distance traveled

Ftotal = total force

vf = 8m/s

vi= 2m/s

d = 25m

m = 60kg

inserting parameters to get:

W = ΔK = Kf - Ki = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{f}  - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{i}

F_{total} .d =\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{f}  - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{i}

F_{total} = \frac{\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{f} - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{i}}{d}

F_{total=} \frac{\frac{1}{2} X 62 X6^{2} -\frac{1}{2} X 62 X2^{2} }{25}

= 39.7

we know that the force the sprinter exerted F sprinter, the force of the headwind Fwind = 30N

F_{sprinter} = F_{total} + F_{wind}  = 39.7 + 30 = 69.68 N

Which describes an atom that has fewer neutrons than protons and more electrons than protons?
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

negative ion

Explanation:

An atom that has fewer neutrons than protons and more electrons than protons is a negative ion.

The positively charged particles in an atom are the protons

The negatively charged particles in an atom are the electrons.

  The charge an atom carries depends on the balance between the number of protons and electrons in an atom.

  • When the number of protons is more than the number of electrons, the atom is positively charged.
  • When the number of electrons is more than the number of protons, the atom is negatively charged.

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Neptune is approximately 41 times as far from the sun as Venus

Explanation:

Estimate = distance of Neptune from the sun ÷ distance of Venus from the sun = 4.5×10^9 ÷ 1.18×10^8 = 40.9 (approximately 41)

Why does the comet have tails
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Comets leave long beautiful tails when they come close to the sun. ... But when it approaches the sun, the heat evaporates the comet's gases, causing it to emit dust and microparticles (electrons and ions). These materials form a tail whose flow is affected by the sun's radiation pressure.

Explanation: I just searched it up on the internet lol.
