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

A sample of radium-226 will decay to ¼ of its original amount after 3200 years. What is the half-life of radium-226?
lesantik [10]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

1600 years

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Half life is the time taken for a radioactive isotope to decay by half of its original amount.
  • We can use the formula; N = O × (1/2)^n ; where N is the new mass, O is the original amount and n is the number of half lives.
  • A sample of radium-226 takes 3200 years to decay to 1/4 of its original amount.

Therefore;

<em>1/4 = 1 × (1/2)^n</em>

<em>1/4 = (1/2)^n </em>

<em>n = 2 </em>

Thus; <em>3200 years is equivalent to 2 half lives.</em>

<em>Hence, the half life of radium-226 is 1600 years</em>

1. Determine the energy released per kilogram of fuel used.
Serga [27]

The formula for energy release per kilogram of fuel burned is energy release per kg=6.702*10-13. and 19. J 1 Mev = 1.602 X 10 T

Calculate the energy in joules per kilogram of reactants given MeV per reaction. Energy is the ability or capacity to perform tasks, such as the ability to move an item (of a certain mass) by exerting force. Energy can exist in many different forms, including electrical, mechanical, chemical, thermal, or nuclear, and it can change its form.
Think of a mole of plutonium-239 (molar mass: 239 grams) as a mole of "reactions."

Energy used in the US per person annually = 3-5 X 1011
Population (number of people) = 3.108The required mass of the fuel is 3.5x1011 x3-1x10 8x 10)/6.703 X1013 kg. the mass required: 1.62 x 1033 kg Mev in Joules 6 is equal to 101.60*I0-
19. J 1 Mev = 1.602 X 10 T, which translates to 1.602*1013/2.39x10-3 energy release per kilogram, or 6.702*10-13.

Which material is more closely related to the styrofoam? a. heat exchanger b. diffuser c. insulator d. electrical conductor
nirvana33 [79]

The material that is more closely related to the Styrofoam insulator.

Styrofoam is the term that is used for polystyrene foam in a trademark form. It is a petroleum-based plastic.

Keeping something warm includes the stopping of the transfer of heat from one object to another. This is how insulation works.

Styrofoam is an insulator, which means it'll help keep the heat from the environment out of your cooler. However, you'll still need cooling agents (like ice packs) to make the cooler cold in the first place.

Styrofoam is usually made mostly of air, which means it is a poor conductor of heat, but an excellent convector. It traps the air in small pockets, which blocks the flow of heat energy. This reduces both conduction and convection and makes Styrofoam a good insulator.
