In pottery class, you throw a pot from a lump of wet clay. your pot's mass is 5.5 kg. after the pot is fired, it's mass is 4.9 k

g. the density of wet clay is 1.60 g/cm3 and the density of fired clay is 1.36 g/cm3. what was the volume of your pot before it was fired? what was the volume of the pot after it was fired? express your answer in significant digits.

We can calculate for the volume by taking the ratio of mass and density, that is:

volume = mass / density

 

A. when mass = 5.5 kg = 5500 g; density = 1.60 g/cm^3

volume = 5500 g / (1.60 g/cm^3)

volume = 3,437.5 cm^3

Taking the significant digits:

volume = 3,400 cm^3 = 3.4 L

 

B. when mass = 4.9 kg = 4900 g; density = 1.36 g/cm^3

volume = 4900 g / (1.36 g/cm^3)

volume = 3,602.94 cm^3

Taking the significant digits:

<span>volume = 3,600 cm^3 = 3.6 L</span>

Answer:

the answers the correct one is d

Explanation:

The speed of sound is constant so we can use the relations of uniform motion

           v = x / t

            x = v t

now let's calculate the distance for each person

t = 5s

         x₁ = 300 5

         x₁ = 1500 m

t = 6s

         x₂ = 300 6

         x₂ = 1800 m

therefore we have two possibilities

a) the two people are on the same side, therefore the distance between them is

         Δx = x₂- x₁

         Δx = 1800 - 1500

         Δx = 300 m

       

let's reduce to km

         Δx = 0.300 km

b) people are on opposite sides of the sound

         Δx = x₂ + x₁

         Δx = 1800 + 1500

         Δx = 3300 m

         Δx = 3.3 km

Which of the following examples illustrates static friction?
vivado [14]

Answer:

A box sits stationary  on a ramp

Explanation:

Static friction is a force which keeps an object at rest as it is in the case of the box. It has to be overcome for the object to be set into motion.

Static force of friction is calculated as follows:

F= μη

F is static force of friction.

μ is the coefficient of static friction.

η is the normal force.

A machine part has the shape of a solid uniform sphere of mass 250 g and a diameter of 4.30 cm. It is spinning about a frictionl
zysi [14]

Answer:\alpha =9.302\ rad/s^2

Explanation:

Given

mass of sphere m=250\ gm

diameter of sphere d=4.30\ cm

radius r=\frac{4.30}{2}\ cm

f=0.0200\ N

friction will provide resisting torque so

f\times r=I\times \alpha

where I=\text{moment of Inertia}

f=\text{friction force}

\alpha =\text{angular acceleration}

I=\frac{2}{5}mr^2

0.02\times r=\frac{2}{5}mr^2\times \alpha

\alpha =\frac{5}{2r}\times f

\alpha =\frac{5}{2}\times \frac{2}{4.3\times 10^{-2}}\times 0.02

\alpha =9.302\ rad/s^2

(b)time taken to decrease its rotational speed by 21\ rad/s

t=\dfrac{\Delta \omega }{\alpha }

t=\dfrac{21}{9.302}

t=2.25\ s

strojnjashka [21]

Potassium hydroxide (KOH) and hydrochloric acid (HCl) react in a beaker. They form potassium chloride (KCl) and water (H2O). This type of reaction is a double replacement reaction wherein the two principal reactants exchange after the reaction. The Cl will combine to the K forming KCl and the H will add to the OH forming H2O.
