The bouyancy force is:  

Since the wood-lead system is completely submerged, the bouyancy force 

 is FB = ĎwgVl + ĎwgVb, where Ďw is the density of water,Vl 

 is the volume of 

 the piece of lead and Vb is the volume of the wooden block. The weight of the

  combined lead and wooden block is: W = ĎlgVl + ĎbgVb. Since the system is 

 in equilibrium, the bouyancy force must be equal to the total weight: 

 ĎwgVl + ĎwgVb = ĎlgVl + ĎbgVb 

 now we can solve for the volume of lead: 

 ĎwgVl â’ ĎlgVl = ĎbgVb â’ ĎwgVb 

 Vl(Ďw â’ Ďl) = Vb(Ďb â’ Ďw) 

 Vl =   

 Ďbâ’Ďw 

 Ďwâ’Ďl   

 Vb 

 Now we substitute the values for the density of lead Ďl = 11.3 Ă— 103kg/m3  , 

 the density of the wood and the density of water Ďw = 1000kg/m3 

 . We get: 

 Vl =   

 600â’1000 

 1000â’11300 

 (0.6m Ă— 0.25m Ă— 0.08m) = 4.66 Ă— 10â’4m3

Calculate the wavelength of a photon having 3.26 x 10^-19 joules of energy
bekas [8.4K]
The energy of a photon is given by:
E=hf
where h is the Planck constant and f is the photon frequency.
We know the energy of the photon, E=3.26 \cdot 10^{-19} J, so we can rearrange the equation to calculate the frequency of the photon:
f= \frac{E}{h}= \frac{3.26 \cdot 10^{-19}J}{6.6 \cdot 10^{-34}Js}=4.94 \cdot 10^{14}Hz

And now we can use the following relationship between frequency f, wavelength \lambda and speed of light c to find the wavelength of the photon:
\lambda= \frac{c}{f}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{4.94 \cdot 10^{14} Hz}=6.07\cdot 10^{-7} m=607 nm

Explain why a black and white aeronautical map would be difficult to use
Aneli [31]

Aeronautical maps are usually meant to be used by pilots and air aviation professionals in other to navigate or traverse though the sky. With various elements such as vegetation, hills, valleys being depicted by color coded keys or legend. Hence, the absence of color on an aeronautical map make the <em>representation of elements very difficult</em>.

Visual map interpretation is usually aided by the use of legends. The legend hold the key to the elements which are represented on the map. Usually, a combination of colors and shapes makes up the legend and makes map interpretation easy.

Therefore, the absence of various color palletes for representation on a black and white aeronautical map will make it difficult to use.

A object with a mass of 1.5 kg is lifted from the ground to a height of 0.22 m what is the objects potential energy
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

<h2>3.3 J</h2>

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 10 m/s²

From the question we have

PE = 1.5 × 10 × 0.22

We have the final answer as

<h3>3.3 J</h3>

Hope this helps you
