This is the upthrust on an object which is placed inside a fluid

This force act upwards and always push upwards

so the correct answer is given as

D. A force within a fluid that pushes upward

this force is always due to pressure difference at two levels of

at lower level since pressure is more that is why the force is upwards and this upthrust is known as Buoyancy

Four particles are in a 2-d plane with masses, x- and y- positions, and x- and y- velocities as given in the table below: what i

Arte-miy333 [17]

I attached the picture of the missing table.
Center of mass is the point such that if you apply force to it, the system would move without rotating.
We can use following formula to calculate the center of mass:
$R=\frac{1}{M}\sum_{i=1}^{n=i}m_ir_i$
Where M is the sum of the masses of all particles.
Part 1
To calculate the x coordinate of the center of mass we will use this formula:
$R_x=\frac{1}{M}\sum_{i=1}^{n=i}m_ix_i$
I will do all the calculations in the google sheet that I will share with you.
For the x coordinate of the center of mass we get:
$R_x=0.96m$
Part 2
To calculate the y coordinate of the center of mass we will use this formula:
$R_y=\frac{1}{M}\sum_{i=1}^{n=i}m_iy_i$
I will do all the calculations in the google sheet that I will share with you.
For the x coordinate of the center of mass we get:
$R_y=-0.84m$
Part 3
We will calculate speed along x and y-axis separately and then will add them together.
$v_x=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n=i}m_iv_x_i}{M}$
$v_y=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n=i}m_iv_y_i}{M}$
Total velocity is:
$v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}$
Once we calculate velocities we get:
$v_x=-1.08\frac{m}{s}\\ v_y=-0.03\frac{m}{s}\\ v=\sqrt{(-1.08)^2+(-0.03)^2}=1.08\frac{m}{s}$
Part 4
Because origin is left to our center of mass(please see the attached picture) placing fifth mass in the origin would move the center of mass to the left along the x-axis.
Part 5
If you place fifth mass in the center of the mass nothing would change. The center of mass would stay in the same place.

One reason that it would be appropriate to talk on your cell phone, could be reporting an accident. For instance, a car crash, a sign in the road anything regarding safety of drivers.

Most of the earth,s surface is covered by what ?

GenaCL600 [577]

Around 70-72% of earth’s surface is covered in water (most of it is salt water).
Hope this helps.

Three points A, B, and C of unknown charges are at the corners of an equilateral triangle.

nasty-shy [4]

Answer: option d.

$Q_A= \frac{1}{2} Q_B=- \frac{1}{3} Q_C$

Explanation:

1) The direction of the field lines inform about the sign of the charges.

The field lines extend from the positive charges to the negative charges, so you can conclude that the charge C is positve and both charge A and charge B are negative:


Charge C: positive

Charge A: negative

Charge B: netative


2) The density of the lines (number of lines in a region) inform about the magnitude of the electric field.

Since the charges are at the same distance, the magnitude of the electric field informs directly about the magnitude of the force and that about the magnitude of the charges.

Since, there are the double of lines between C and B than between C and A, the magnitude of charge B is the double than the magnitud of charge A.

From the five options given (a throug e) the only that is consistent with that charges A and B have the same sign, that charge C has different sign, and that charge B is the double of charge A is:

$Q_A= \frac{1}{2} Q_B=- \frac{1}{3} Q_C$

Which of the following will not reduce water pollution?

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

A. Using artificial fertilizers instead of composting

Explanation:

Composting is actually more better than fertilizers usually, as it takes natural waste and with help of nature, returning the nutrients into soil once again. However, Artificial fertilizers usually uses chemicals to ensure that weed does not grow, and may contain other "unnatural" ingredients to ensure that only the crop grows on the field. Because of the usage of non-natural ingredients, any run-off can prove to be detrimental to any animals that eat any of the run-off infected material, or drink the polluted water.
