D: both weight and displacement are vector quantities

vector quantities have both magnitude and direction while scalar quantities only have magnitudes

A block moves along a table at a constant velocity and then rolls off the edge of the table. The forces that should be included
Alla [95]

Answer:

Gravity

Explanation:

When the ball is falling to the ground, there is only one force- gravity. In some cases, there may be air resistance, but that seems to be neglected here.

Normal force:

Cannot be included. Normal force is only applicable when object is on a surface, and it acts perpendicular to the surface. Since the ball is falling, there is no surface, and therefore no normal force. This question gives you unnecessary information, designed to trick you. Please remember when normal force is applicable.

Friction force:

Also only applicable when object is moving, and is on the table. Friction only applies when there is an applied force. There is no applied force when the ball is falling, so therefore no friction force.

Force of fall:

First of all, what is this? There is nothing called force of fall.

Gravity:

This is the only one that applies. Just draw a vector arrow from the bottom of the ball and label it mg (acceleration due to gravity).

Glycerin is poured into an open U-shaped tube until the height in both sides is 20cm. Ethyl alcohol is then poured into one arm
Liula [17]

Answer:

7.5 cm

Explanation:

In the figure we can see a sketch of the problem. We know that at the bottom of the U-shaped tube the pressure is equal in both branches. Defining \rho_A: Ethyl alcohol density and \rho_G: Glycerin density , we can write:

\rho_A\times g \times h_1 + \rho_G \times g \times h_2 = \rho_G \times g \times h_3

Simplifying:

\rho_A\times h_1 = \rho_G \times (h_3 - h_2) (1)

On the other hand:

h_1 + h_2 = \Delta h + h_3

Rearranging:

h_1 - \Delta h = h_3 - h_2 (2)

Replacing  (2) in (1):

\rho_A\times h_1 = \rho_G \times (h_1 - \Delta h)

Rearranging:

\frac{h_1 \times (\rho_A - \rho_G)}{- \rho_G} = \Delta h

Data:

h_1 = 20 cm; \rho_A = 0.789 \frac{g}{cm^3}; \rho_G = 1.26 \frac{g}{cm^3}

\frac{20 cm \times (0.789 - 1.26) \frac{g}{cm^3}}{- 1.26\frac{g}{cm^3}}  = \Delta h

7.5 cm =  \Delta h
