Answer: 0.24g/ml

Explanation:

Given that:

Volume of water displaced = 23.5 ml

Mass of cork = 5.7 g

Density of the cork = ?

Recall that density is obtained by dividing the mass of a substance by the volume of water displaced.

i.e Density = Mass/volume

Density = 5.7g /23.5ml

Density = 0.24g/ml

Thus, the density of the piece of cork is 0.24g/ml

Identify each picture as either an inelastic collision or elastic collision
Ivan

Answer:

<u>Inelastic collision:</u>

A collision in which there is a loss of Kinetic Energy due to internal friction of the bodies colliding.

<u>Characteristics of an inelastic collision:</u>

  • <em>the momentum of the system is conserved</em>
  • <em>the momentum of the system is conservedloss of kinetic energy</em><u> </u>

<em>I</em><em>n</em><em> </em><em>a perfectly elastic collision</em><em>, the two bodies </em><em>that</em><em> </em><em>collide with each other stick together.</em>

<u>Elastic </u><u>collision</u><u>:</u>

A collision in which the kinetic energy of the two bodies, before and after the collision, remains the same.

<u>Characteristic</u><u>s</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>elastic</u><u> </u><u>collision</u><u>:</u>

  • <em>the</em><em> </em><em>momentum</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>system</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>conserved</em>
  • <em>no</em><em> </em><em>loss</em><em> </em><em>o</em><em>f</em><em> </em><em>kinetic</em><em> </em><em>energy</em>

In everyday life, no collision is perfectly elastic.

ANSWER:

<u>Given examples:</u>

  • Two cars colliding with each other form an example of inelastic collision.

<u>Reason:</u>

<em>(</em><em>T</em><em>hey</em><em> </em><em>lose</em><em> </em><em>kinetic</em><em> </em><em>energy</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>come</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>stop</em><em> </em><em>after</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>collision</em><em>.</em><em>)</em>

  • A ball bouncing after colliding with a surface is an example of elastic collision

<u>Reason:</u>

<em>(a very less amount of kinetic energy is lost)</em>

Answer:

Copper

Explanation:

Capacitance is directly proportional to dielectric constant

Aluminium and zinc are highly reactive and have high dielectric contact.

Copper has less dielectric constant hence capacitance will decrease

Does a rigid object in uniform rotation about a fixed axis satisfy the first and second conditions for equilibrium?
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Explanation:

a rigid object in uniform rotation about a fixed axis does not satisfy both the condition of equilibrium .

First condition of equilibrium is that net force on the body should be zero.

or F net = 0

A body under uniform rotation is experiencing a centripetal force all the time so F net ≠ 0

So first condition of equilibrium is not satisfied.

Second condition is that , net torque acting on the body  must be zero.

In case of a rigid object in uniform rotation , centripetal force is applied towards the centre ie  towards the  line joining the body under rotation with the axis .

F is along r

torque = r x F

= r F sinθ

θ = 0 degree

torque = 0

Hence 2nd condition is fulfilled.
