A scuba tank, when fully submerged, displaces 15.7 l of seawater. the tank itself has a mass of 13.7 kg and, when "full," contai

ns 3.00 kg of air. the density of seawater is 1025 kg/m3. assume that only its weight and the buoyant force act on the tank.

The problem is asking for the buoyant force.
The first step is to know the weights of the tank and air. Tank = 13.7 * 9.8 = 134.26 N Air = 3 * 9.8 = 29.4 N Total weight of the tank and air is 163.66 N 
To know the buoyant force, we must convert 15.7 liters to cubic meters. 
1 liter = 1000 ml = 1000 cm^3 1 m = 100 cm 1 m^3= 1,000,000 cm^3 One liter = 1000 divided by 1,000,000 = 0.001 m^3 V = 15 * 0.001 = 0.015 m^3 
Then compute for the buoyant force:Buoyant force = 0.015 * 1025 * 9.8 = 150.675 N

hammer [34]

Answer:

1201 lbs

Explanation:

Given that in mammals, the weight of the heart is approximately 0.5% of the total body weight.

Let the weight of the heart of a mammal be H

And the weight of the total body be B

The linear model that can gives the heart weight in terms of the total body weight will be:

H = 0.005B

B.) To find the weight of the heart of a whale whose weight is 2.402 × 105 lbs, substitute the whole weight in the formula.

H = 0.005 × 2.402 × 10^5

H = 1201 lbs

Therefore, the weight of the heart of the whale is 1201 lbs

The linear momentum of a car of mass 1000 kg moving with a speed of 10 m/s is-----kg.m/s. HELP ME
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

The kilogram-meter per second (kg · m/s or kg · m · s -1 ) is the standard unit of momentum . Reduced to base units in the International System of Units ( SI ), a kilogram-meter per second is the equivalent of a newton-second (N · s), which is the SI unit of impulse .

Why-does-the-energy-of-a-sound-wave-decrease-over-time
KengaRu [80]
The sound wave never actually loses energy, the bulk of energy it had at the beginning of the sound, is spread out into a sphere, making it decrease in amplitude and frequency.
