A rectangular block of copper metal weighs 1896 g. The dimensions of the block are 8.4 cm by 5.5 cm by 4.6 cm. From this data, w
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

8.9 g/cm^3

Explanation:

density = mass/volume

volume = length * width * height

volume = (8.4 cm)(5.5 cm)(4.6 cm)

volume = 212.52 cm^3

mass = 1896 g

density = (1896 g)/(212.52 cm^3)

density = 8.9 g/cm^3

Westkost [7]

Answer:

33.6 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 47.41 m/s²

t = 1.19 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (0 m/s) (1.19 s) + ½ (47.41 m/s²) (1.19 s)²

Δx = 33.6 m

Inessa [10]

Answer:

Options A and D

Explanation:

In this question the student needs to collect these measurements in order to approximate the work done

A. The mass of the student

D. The final vertical height above the initial vertical position.

Workdone = mgh

m = mass

g = gravity = 9.8m/s²

h = vertical height between the initial and the final positions.

The vertical height has to be known as gravity only acts straight down.
