The weight of the ball m is directly proportional to the cube of the radius, r^3. This means that the ratio between the weight of the ball with radius 3-in and 2-in should be equal to the ratio between the cubes of the two radii:
\frac{m_3}{m_2}= \frac{(3 in)^3}{(2 in)^3}
So we can find the weight of the ball when its radius is 3 inches:
m_3 = m_2  \frac{(3 in)^3}{(2 in)^3}= (5605.60 p) \frac{3^3}{2^3}=18919 pounds

Ede4ka [16]

The object D is made up of material Lead. The correct option is D.

<h3>What is specific heat?</h3>

The specific heat is the amount of heat required to change the temperature by 1°C. It is denoted by C.

Two 1-kg objects, C and D, increase in temperature by the same amount, but the thermal energy transfer of object C is greater than the thermal energy transfer of object D. The object C has a specific heat of 235 J/kg-K.

Q = m C ΔT

Qc > Qd

The energy transfer is proportional to specific heat.

Specific heat of D must be less. The possible material with specific heat less than the given value is for Lead material.

Thus, the correct option is D.

Stells [14]

Answer:

D. crystalline solid that conducts current under certain conditions

Explanation:

Semiconductors are crystalline solids that has the ability to conduct electrical currents but on certain conditions e.g heat. The conduction of semiconductors is less than that of conductors (metals) but more than insulators (nonmetals), hence, they are said to be intermediates of conductors and insulators in terms of electrical conductivity.

Examples of semiconductors are silicon, boron, carbon, germanium, arsenic etc.

Suppose a large truck on a hydraulic lift exerts 7,000 N of force on a piston with an area of 0.4 m2. The piston can only suppor
uysha [10]

Pressure is the amount of force per unit area. In formula it is,

P = F ÷ A

P = 7000 N ÷ 0.4 m2

P = 17,500 N/m2

The amount of pressure the truck exerts on the piston is 17,500 N/m2
