The density of an object can be calculated using the formula Density = Mass/Volume.

Experimental Density:

Density = 153.8g / 20.00 cm^3
Density = 7.69g/cm^3

Percent error equation:

% Error = | Theoretical Value - Experimental Value|/Theoretical Value * 100
% Error = | 7.87g/cm^3 - 7.69g/cm^3|/7.87g/cm^3 * 100
% Error = 2.29%

Therefore a is the correct answer.

A 10.2-kg mass is located at the origin, and a 4.6-kg mass is located at x = 8.1 cm. Assuming g is constant, what is the locatio
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

center of mass of the two masses will lie at x = 2.52 cm

center of gravity of the two masses will lie at x = 2.52 cm

So center of mass is same as center of gravity because value of gravity is constant here

Explanation:

Position of centre of mass is given as

r_{cm} = \frac{m_1r_1 + m_2r_2}{m_1 + m_2}

here we have

m_1 = 10.2 kg

m_2 = 4.6 kg

r_1 = (0, 0)

r_2 = (8.1cm, 0)

now we have

r_{cm} = \frac{10.2 (0,0) + 4.6 (8.1 , 0)}{10.2 + 4.6}

r_{cm} = {(37.26, 0)}{14.8}

r_{cm} = (2.52 cm, 0)

so center of mass of the two masses will lie at x = 2.52 cm

now for center of gravity we can use

r_g_{cm} = \frac{m_1gr_1 + m_2gr_2}{m_1g + m_2g}

here we have

m_1 = 10.2 kg

m_2 = 4.6 kg

r_1 = (0, 0)

r_2 = (8.1cm, 0)

now we have

r_g_{cm} = \frac{10.2(9.8) (0,0) + 4.6(9.8) (8.1 , 0)}{10.2(9.8) + 4.6(9.8)}

r_g_{cm} = {(37.26, 0)}{14.8}

r_g_{cm} = (2.52 cm, 0)

So center of mass is same as center of gravity because value of gravity is constant here

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

the brightest found are Blue - White with

Explanation:

The energy emission of objects increases with their temperature, specifically Wien described the process in an expression

 

          \lambda_{maximum} T = 2,898 10⁻³

With this expression we can find the temperature of the stars by the color they emit.

Specifically the Sun has a color of 550 nm which corresponds to 5400K

bright stars have a BLUE color corresponding to 7500K

the brightest found are Blue - White with a temperature of 20000K
