Answer:

A) Fb = 671.3 N

B) The diver will sink.

Explanation:

A)

The buoyant force applied on an object by a fluid is given by the following formula:

Fb = Vρg

where,

Fb = Buoyant Force = ?

V = Volume of the water displaced by the object = 68.5 L = 0.0685 m³

ρ = Density of Water = 1000 kg/m³

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

Fb = (0.0685 m³)(1000 kg/m³)(9.8 m/s²)

<u>Fb = 671.3 N</u>

B)

Now, in order to find out whether the diver sinks or float, we need to find weight of the diver with gear.

W = mg = (71.8 kg)(9.8 m/s²)

W = 703.64 N

Since, W > Fb. Therefore, the downward force of weight will make the diver sink.

<u>The diver will sink.</u>

Which of the following determines the range of spectral lines produced during electron transition?. . A.The total number of ener
KengaRu [80]

Answer: A.The total number of energy levels the electron can jump to.

Explanation:

Spectral lines are bright or dark lines over continuous spectrum which occur due to emission or absorption of energy.

When an electron jumps to or from one energy level to another energy level, spectral lines are produced. The range of spectral lines depends on the number of energy levels available to which the electron can jump. This depends the amount of energy gained/lost by the electron.

Thus, the correct answer is: A.The total number of energy levels the electron can jump to.

According to​ Newton's Law of​ Cooling, if a body with temperature Upper T 1 is placed in surroundings with temperature Upper T
lesantik [10]

Answer:

27.22 F.

Explanation:

T ( t ) = T₀ + ( T₁ - T₀)e^{-kt}

T ( t ) = 41 ,  T₀ = 0 , T₁ = 140 , t = 15

Put these values in the equation above

41 = ( 140 - 0 ) e^{-15k}

41/140 = e ^{-15k}

(41/140)^{1/3} = e ^{-5k}

Let after 20 minutes temperature becomes T

T = 0 + 140 e^{-k20}

T / 41 = e^{-5k }

= (41/140)^{1/3}

T = 41 X  (41/140)^{1/3}

= 27.22 F.

The froghopper Philaenus spumarius is supposedly the best jumper in the animal kingdom. To start a jump, this insect can acceler
Kay [80]

Answer:

Part a)

v_f = 4 m/s

Part b)

t = 0.001 s

Part c)

d = 0.815 m

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that initially the grass hopper is at rest at the ground position

Now the acceleration is given as

a = 4000 m/s^2

distance of the legs that it stretched is given as

s = 2.0 mm

so we have

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

v_f^2 - 0 = 2(4000)(0.002)

v_f = 4 m/s

Part b)

time taken to reach this speed is given as

v_f - v_i = at

4 - 0 = 4000 t

t = 0.001 s

Part c)

as the grass hopper reach the maximum height its final speed would be zero

so we will have

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

0 - 4^2 = 2(-9.81) d

d = 0.815 m

Select the situations from the list in which mechanical energy is conserved. (A) A ball slides down a hill with friction. (B) An
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

B, D,E,F

Explanation:

Situations from the list in which mechanical energy is conserved.

Whenever there is friction there is always some loss of energy in the process and hence energy cannot be conserved.

- The Moon orbiting the Earth  (Total energy is remains the same)

- An ice skater gliding along the ice ( smooth surface no friction loss)

- A ball sliding down a friction less hill  ( again friction less process)

- A child swinging on a friction less swing, ignoring air resistance
