In a lecture demonstration, an object is suspended from a spring scale which reads 8N when the object is in air. The object is t

hen lowered into a beaker of water, and when the object is fully submerged in the water, the scale reads 6N. a) Find the density of the object. b) During the entire demonstration, the beaker is standing on a kitchen scale which reads 20N before the object is lowered into the water. What does this scale read when the object is fully submerged? c) Compare the sum of the two scale readings before and after the object is submerged.

Answer:

a) density of the object is 3995.01, b) the weight scale reads 22N c) the sum individually will be the same with when added together.

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of the object in air is 8N,

and weight = Mass * acceleration due to gravity = m * 9.81

8/9.81 = 0.815,

upthrust( force acting on the body from the liquid impeding the immersion) on the body when fully submerged = weight in air - weight in water = 8N - 6N =2N

Upthrust = weight of water displaced = 2N = mass * acceleration

2/9.81 = 0.204kg

density of water(1000kg/m^3) = mass of water / volume of water

volume of water displaced = 0.204/1000 = 0.000204m^3 (204cm^3)

volume of water displaced = volume of the solid

density of solid = mass/ volume = 0.815/0.000204 = 3995.01kg/m^3

b) when fully submerge in water the the scale experience according to newton third law of motion ( equal and opposite reaction of forces) additional 2N push so that total weight with the fully submerge solid = 20N + upthrust = 20N + 2N =22N

c) the of two scale reading is before (8N + 20N = 28N) and after (6N + 22N = 28) since there is no loss of matter; the demonstration was in equilibrium.

Find the length of OC.
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

About 8

Step-by-step explanation:

I found this by doing 16 divided by 2 since half of 16 is 8and AC and OC are congruent so I think it is 8.

C, because when you add 45 on both sides, and then after that when you have to subtract 15 in both sides, you get 0 = 120.

Solve the inequality and graph the solution<br> 4x-5&gt;7
ohaa [14]

Answer:

x > 3

interval notation: (3, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the inequality statement: 4x - 5 > 7,

The goal is to isolate x and find its solution.

Start by adding 5 to both sides:

4x - 5 + 5 > 7 + 5

4x > 12

Divide both sides by 4:

4x/4 > 12/4

x > 3

The solution can also be expressed in the following interval notation:

(3, ∞).

In terms of graphing, it involves an empty circle on the endpoint, x = 3, as it is not included as a solution. The solution to the given inequality statement must be greater than 3.

Andrew went for a walk in the park. The trail he took is 1 1/4 miles long. He walked for 1/2 mile before stopping for a water br
garik1379 [7]

Andrew walked for 3/4 miles after his break

<h3>How to calculate the number of miles Andrew walked after the break ? </h3>

Andrew went for a walk

The trail he took is 1 1/4 miles long

He walked for 1/2 miles before stopping for a water break

After the break, he continued the journey

He continued the journey without stopping

The distance Andrew walked after his break can be calculated as follows

5/4 - 1/2

= 5-2/4

= 3/4

Hence Andrew walked for 3/4 miles after taking the break

pychu [463]

Answer:

d

Step-by-step explanation:

This is point-slope form, and these coordinates make both sides equal to 0.
