A solid object has a density of 2.85 g/cm3. According to Archimedes, what can be done to make this object float in water?

2: It's not just the capillary action, but the pull from transpiration (the evaporation of water from the tree) that is used to pull water up from the roots.

The second question needs context. Strong bonds alone won't cause tension. I don't see how adhesion is different. High vapour pressure could do it, but it's the difference in pressures that'd cause tension (and the resistance of that pressure by the surface). So, a low and high pressure would be needed. Poorly worded question :( 

1: "Adhesion is the tendency of certain dissimilar molecules to cling together due to attractive forces." [1] 

3: The other three answere would not work. Think of a boat. 

3: If you push gas, it will be compressed(get smaller). If you push liquid it will push something else. Thus, liquids are good for transferring force. This is a hydraulic system.

single goose sounds a loud warning when an intruder enters the farmyard. Some distance from the goose, you measure the sound lev

Goryan [66]

Answer:

The sound level of the 26 geese is $Z_{26}= 96.15 dB$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sound level is $Z_1 = 81.0 \ dB$

The number of geese is $N = 26$

Generally the intensity level of sound is mathematically represented as

The intensity of sound level in dB for one goose is mathematically represented as

$Z_1 = 10 log [\frac{I}{I_O} ]$

Where I_o is the threshold level of intensity with value $I_o = 1*10^{-12} \ W/m^2$

$I$ is the intensity for one goose in $W/m^2$

For 26 geese the intensity would be

$I_{26} = 26 * I$

Then the intensity of 26 geese in dB is

$Z_{26} = 10 log[\frac{26 I }{I_o} ]$

$Z_{26} = 10 log (\ \ 26 * [\frac{ I }{I_o} ]\ \ )$

$Z_{26} = 10 log (\ \ 26 \ \ ) * (\ \ 10 log [\frac{ I }{I_o} ]\ \ )$

From the law of logarithm we have that

$Z_{26} = 10 log 26 + 10 log [\frac{I}{I_0} ]$

$= 14.15 + 82$

$Z_{26}= 96.15 dB$

If a scale on Earth reads 650 N, what is your mass?

OlgaM077 [116]

If the scale reads 650N, then the mass of whoever it is standing on the scale is

(weight) / (gravity) = (650N) / (9.8 m/s²) = 66.3 kilograms .

It's not MY mass, even if I'm the one standing on the scale.
If I stand on a scale and it reads 650 N, the scale is broken.
