Answer:

No it will not (false)

Explanation:

I say this because if anything the ice will sink and melt from a solid to a liquid and that will lead to i guess more water for the aquatic life. (THIS IS A THEORY SHAWTY)

False

the aquatic lif would have to make significant changes to how they hunt and find shelter. Especially in Antartica

Given:
rod of circular cross section is subjected to uniaxial tension.
Length, L=1500 mm
radius, r = 10 mm
E=2*10^5 N/mm^2
Force, F=20 kN = 20,000 N

Indiana Jones is in a temple searching for artifacts. He finds a gold sphere with a radius of 2 cm sitting on a pressure sensiti

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Volume of Sand = 0.4 m³

Radius of Sand Sphere = 0.46 m

Explanation:

First we need to find the volume of gold sphere:

Vg = (4/3)πr³

where,

Vg = Volume of gold sphere = ?

r = radius of gold sphere = 2 cm = 0.02 m

Therefore,

Vg = (4/3)π(0.2 m)³

Vg = 0.0335 m³

Now, we find mass of the gold:

ρg = mg/Vg

where,

ρg = density of gold = 19300 kg/m³

mg = mass of gold = ?

Vg = Volume of gold sphere = 0.0335 m³

Therefore,

mg = (19300 kg/m³)(0.0335 m³)

mg = 646.75 kg

Now, the volume of sand required for equivalent mass of gold, will be given by:

ρs = mg/Vs

where,

ρs = density of sand = 1602 kg/m³

mg = mass of gold = 646.75 kg

Vs = Volume of sand = ?

Therefore,

1602 kg/m³ = 646.75 kg/Vs

Vs = (646.75 kg)/(1602 kg/m³)

Now, for the radius of sand sphere to give a volume of 0.4 m³, can be determined from the formula:

Vs = (4/3)πr³

0.4 m³ = (4/3)πr³

r³ = 3(0.4 m³)/4π

r³ = 0.095 m³

r = ∛(0.095 m³)

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

The volume will not contract to one fourth of the original.

Explanation:

Applying Charles's Law as:

$\frac {V_1}{T_1}=\frac {V_2}{T_2}$

Given ,

V₁ = ?

V₂ = 2 L

T₁ = 5 °C

T₂ = 20 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15

So,

T₁ = (5 + 273.15) K = 278.15 K

T₂ = (20 + 273.15) K = 293.15 K

Using Charles law as:

$V_1=\frac {V_2}{T_2} \times {T_1}$

$V_1=\frac {2\ L}{293.15 K} \times {278.15 K}$

$V_1=1.8977 L$

Thus, the volume will not contract to one fourth of the original. (1/4 of 2 L is 0.5 L).

Alexeev081 [22]

If you float a piece of wood in a container half-full of water that rests on a weighing scale, the weight reading on the scale will increase.

<h3>What is Buoyancy?</h3>

Buoyancy is the force through your fluids or total or submerged bodies. Also known as Archimedes' theorem. The fluid of the direction on the body produces a resultant force but with the direction of the weight, with the opposite direction, upwards.

All material submerged in a liquid under the action of buoyancy, for this reason we have that the value on the scale will be increased with a system of a wood floating in water.
