Density = (mass) / (volume)
4,000 kg/m³ = (mass) / (0.09 m³)
Multiply each side
by 0.09 m³ : (4,000 kg/m³) x (0.09 m³) = mass
mass = 360 kg .
Force of gravity = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity)
= (360 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)
= (360 x 9.8) kg-m/s²
= 3,528 newtons .
That's the force of gravity on this block, and it doesn't matter
what else is around it. It could be in a box on the shelf or at
the bottom of a swimming pool . . . it's weight is 3,528 newtons
(about 793.7 pounds).
Now, it won't seem that heavy when it's in the water, because
there's another force acting on it in the upward direction, against
gravity. That's the buoyant force due to the displaced water.
The block is displacing 0.09 m³ of water. Water has 1,000 kg of
mass in a m³, so the block displaces 90 kg of water. The weight
of that water is (90) x (9.8) = 882 newtons (about 198.4 pounds),
and that force tries to hold the block up, against gravity.
So while it's in the water, the block seems to weigh
(3,528 - 882) = 2,646 newtons (about 595.2 pounds) .
But again ... it's not correct to call that the "force of gravity acting
on the block in water". The force of gravity doesn't change, but
there's another force, working against gravity, in the water.
The most common value for the speed of light is 3*10^8 meters/second.
A more accurate number is <span>299 792 458 m/second, but that number is hardly ever used.</span>
When paper burns, some of the chemical compounds in the
paper combine with oxygen in the air and become different
chemical compounds. That's a chemical change.
When iron rusts, or copper or silver turns green, that's the result
of the metal at the surface combining with the oxygen in the air and
forming a new chemical compound. Those are chemical changes.
When water evaporates, H₂O in the liquid phase gains thermal
energy and changes to H₂O in the gaseous phase. No chemical
compounds are lost, gained, or changed to other compounds.
It's just a physical change.
Answer:
Newton's third law of motion.
Explanation:
We are told the force needed to throw the full soda can was more than that needed to throw the empty can.
Now, the weight of the full soda can will be more than that of the empty can. Therefore, the full can will demand more force than that of the empty can due to Newton's third law of motion which states that to every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
