How do you calculate the average density of two different fluids?

Physics
1 answer:
ANTONII [103]3 years ago
4 0
-- Take a sample of the first fluid.
-- Measure its mass.
-- Measure its volume.
-- Divide its mass by its volume.
   This gives you the density of the first fluid.

-- Take a sample of the second fluid.
-- Measure its mass.
-- Measure its volume.
-- Divide its mass by its volume.
   This gives you the density of the second fluid.

You want their average ?
OK

-- Add  (Density of the first fluid) + (Density of the second fluid).
-- Divide the sum by  2 .

   Now you have the average of the two densities.

Note:
That's NOT necessarily the density of a mixture when you
pour some of fluid-1 and fluid-2 into a jar.  The density of the
fluid in the jar is going to depend on how much of each fluid is
in there. 
I started to calculate how much of each one has to be there in order
for the density of the mixture to be equal to the average of their two
densities. But then I sat up straight, asked myself "Why ? !" . 
Then I stopped, and went into the kitchen and ate some meatloaf.

a 3 kg piece of putty that is moving with a velocity of 10 m/s collides and sticks to an 8 kg bowling ball that was at rest. wha
defon

The final velocity is 2.7 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the principle of conservation of momentum: in fact, in absence of external forces, the total momentum of the system must be conserved before and after the collision.

Therefore we can write:

p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v  

where:  

m_1 = 3 kg is the mass of the putty

u_1 = 10 m/s is the initial velocity of the putty (we take its direction as positive direction)

m_2 = 8 kg is the mass of the ball

u_2 = 0 m/s is the initial velocity of the ball (at rest)

v is the final combined velocity of the two putty+ball

Re-arranging the equation and substituting the values, we find the  final combined velocity:

v=\frac{m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2}{m_1+m_2}=\frac{(3)(10)+0}{3+8}=2.7 m/s

And the positive sign indicates their final direction is the same as the initial direction of the putty.

The charge on any negatively charged oil droplet is always a whole-number multiple of the fundamental charge of a single electro
shusha [124]

Answer:

1.6\times 10^{-18} C  

Explanation:

The fundamental charge of a single electron is 1.6\times 10^{-19} C.

If there are 10 excess electrons, the net charge that would be measured should be 10 times the fundamental charge of a single electron:

Q=nq_e\\Q= 10\times 1.6\times 10^{-19} C\\Q= 1.6 \times 10^{-18} C

What is the force of an object with a mass of 30 kg that is free falling?
disa [49]

Answer:

F = 294.3 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law which tells us that force is equal to the product of mass by acceleration. It is this particular case the acceleration is due to the gravitational acceleration since the body is in free fall.

Therefore we have:

F = m*g

where:

F  = force [N]

m = mass = 30 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s^2]

F = 30*9.81

F = 294.3 [N]

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Δh_air=714m

Explanation:

Given data

P_{1}=753mmHg\\P_{2}=690mmHg\\ p_{air}=1.2kg/m^{3}\\  g=9.8m/s^{2}

Solution

ΔP=P₁-P₂

=(ΔhHg)×pHg×g

=(Δh_air)× p_air ×g

Then

Δh_air=(pHg+ΔhHg)÷p_air

=\frac{13600*(753-690)*10^{-3} }{1.2}\\ =714m

Δh_air=714m
