** Missing information: The vertical distance from surface of liquid to bottom of the object is sought in this question, with the condition that the object is at equilibrium **

Ans: The vertical distance = y = M/(ρA)

Explanation:

Support the vertical distance = y

Object's density = M/(A*h) (since A*h = volume)

By applying the condition, 

(M/(Ah))/ρ = y/h

M/(ρAh) = y/h

y = M/(ρA)

A 3.00 x 10^2-W electric immersion heater is
andre [41]

Answer

t = 367.77 s = 6.13 min

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy:

Heat\ Supplied\ By \ Heater = Heat\ Absorbed\ by\ Glass + Heat\ Absorbed\ by\ Water\\Pt = m_gC_g\Delta T_g + m_wC_w\Delta T_w\\

where,

P = Electric Power of Heater =  300 W

t = time required = ?

m_g = mass of glass = 300 g = 0.3 kg

m_w = mass of water = 250 g = 0.25 kg

C_g = speicific heat of glass = 840 J/kg.°C

C_w =  specific heatof water = 4184 J/kg.°C

ΔT_g = ΔT_w = Change in Temperature of Glass and water = 100°C - 15°C

ΔT_g = ΔT_w = 85°C

Therefore,

(300\ W)(t) = (0.3\ kg)(840\ J/kg.^oC)(85^oC)+(0.25\ kg)(4184\ J/kg.^oC)(85^oC)\\

<u>t = 367.77 s = 6.13 min</u>

A small but measurable current of 5.8 × 10-10 A exists in a copper wire whose diameter is 3.0 mm. The number of charge carriers
swat32

Answer:

a) The current density ,J = 2.05×10^-5

b) The drift velocity Vd= 1.51×10^-15

Explanation:

The equation for the current density and drift velocity is given by:

J = i/A = (ne)×Vd

Where i= current

A = Are

Vd = drift velocity

e = charge ,q= 1.602 ×10^-19C

n = volume

Given: i = 5.8×10^-10A

Raduis,r = 3mm= 3.0×10^-3m

n = 8.49×10^28m^3

a) Current density, J =( 5.8×10^-10)/[3.142(3.0×10^-3)^2]

J = (5.8×10^-10) /(2.83×10^-5)

J = 2.05 ×10^-5

b) Drift velocity, Vd = J/ (ne)

Vd = (2.05×10^-5)/ (8.49×10^28)(1.602×10^-19)

Vd = (2.05×10^-5)/(1.36 ×10^10)

Vd = 1.51× 10^-5

When an object slides across the floor, it is slowed down by friction and the floor surface gets warmer. what energy conversion
OverLord2011 [107]
The movement of the object is considered to be kinetic energy while the object getting warmer indicates that there is thermal (heat) energy formed.

Based on this, as the object slides across the floor, friction slows down this motion and the object becomes warmer as kinetic energy is converted into thermal energy.

The battery charger for an mp3 player contains a step-down transformer with a turns ratio of 1:24, so that the voltage of 120 v
miskamm [114]
Considering that we are talking about a stepdown transformer, and a turn ration of 1:24

Then

Vsecondary coil = 120 V / 24 = 5V

(But lets remember that the power must be conserved in the transformer, so the voltage is 24 times less, but the current is 24 times higher)

It provides 5 volts to operate the player or charge the batteries
