Answer: Density

Explanation: Recall Archimedes Principle. There are two forces acting an object submerged in a liquid: the force of gravity and the (opposite directed) force of buoyancy. The buoyancy is proportional to the mass of the liquid displaced by the submerged part of the object.

Density is the ratio of mass to volume. Therefore if the density of the submerged object is higher than that of the displaced liquid, the net force will point in the direction of the gravity (object will sink). In the opposite case, the net force will point in the direction of the buoyant force (upward) and the object will float.

7. A force of 100 N acting on a body gives it a speed of 200 m/s in 2

alekssr [168]

Answer:

Choice a. 1 kg, assuming that all other forces on the object (if any) are balanced.

Explanation:

By Newton's Second Law,

$\displaystyle a = \frac{\Sigma F}{m}$ ,

where

$a$ is the acceleration of the object in $\text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-2}$ ,
$\Sigma F$ is the net force on the object in Newtons, and
$m$ is the mass of the object in kilograms.

As a result,

$\displaystyle m = \frac{\Sigma F}{a}$ .

Assume that all other forces on this object are balanced. The net force on the object will be $100\;\text{N}$ . The net force is constant. Acceleration should also be constant and the same as the average acceleration in the two seconds.
