Wood floats, whereas the key doesn’t. If you attach the 2 together than the wood would prevent the key from sinking.

It could prevent the key from sinking because the wood would float.

It floats because it weighs less than amount of water it would have to push out of the glass if it sank. Wood, cork, and ice are all less dense than water, and they float; rocks are more dense, so they sink. A key would also be more dense causing it to sink.

Hope this helps,

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

<em>displacement = -85 miles</em>

Explanation:

<u>Displacement </u>

It's a magnitude used to measure the linear space between two points. It's computed as the subtraction of the final position minus the initial position which results in a vector. Notice the displacement only depends on the initial and final positions and not on the path the object has traveled.

Brayden starts to measure his position when the mile marker reads 260. Then he travels to the 150-mile marker and goes back to the 175-mile marker, his final position. As mentioned, the displacement only depends on the relative positions, so

displacement = 175 - 260 = -85 miles

--vertical from ground to top--
v^2 = u^2 + 2as
with v= 0, a=g, s=u^2/(-2g)
g on the moon is 1/6
u is equal, then it goes 6 times higher on the moon.

v = u + at
with v= 0, a=g, t = u/(-g)
g on the moon is 1/6
u is equal, then it takes 6 times longer on the moon.

--horizontal--
s = vt , v is equal
t on the moon is 6 time longer
it moves 6 times farer on the moon

The sources of marine debris and explain why it is a problem with global origins
Lera25 [3.4K]
Marine debris is any trash or litter that ends up in a marine environment. This harms wildlife through entanglement, ingestion, and disturbs the habitat of many species of animals. This becomes a global problem when it is a danger to human health. Nails, syringes, and glass can cause harm to people on the beach. On top of that, trash in the waterway increases the amount of chemicals destroying our water quality.

A silver bar 0.125 meter long is subjected to a temperature change from 200°C to 100°C. What will be the length of the bar after
Delicious77 [7]
\Delta L=  \alpha L_0 (T_f-T_i)

= (18 x 10^-6 /°C)(0.125 m)(100° C - 200 °C)

= -0.00225 m

New length = L + ΔL
= 1.25 m + (-0.00225 m)
= 1.248
