If an object suspended by a scale shows a weight of 3 N in air, and 2 N when submerged in water, the buoyant force on the submer

Physics
1 answer:
Alex Ar [27]3 years ago

Answer:

1 N

Explanation:

Buoyant Force: This is also called upthrust, It can be defined as the force which act upward exerted by a fluid when an object is placed in it.

The S.I unit is Newton.

From the question,

Buoyant force = Weight of the object in air- weight of the object when submerged in water.

U = W-W'.......................... Equation 1

Where U = upthrust, W = weight in air, W' = weight when submerged in water.

Given: W = 3 N, W' = 2 N

Substitute into equation 1

U = 3-2

W = 1 N

A city located on the coast of North America has warmer winters and cooler summers than a city at the same elevation and latitud
Vesna [10]

I don't like any of those choices. But if you absolutely have to pick your answer
from this list, then it has to be 'D'.

The ocean is an enormous storage vessel for heat.  It gets heat from the air in
the Summer ... which somewhat cools places near the coast ... and it releases
heat into the air during the Winter ... which warms places near the coast.

So I guess it's true that ocean surfaces change temperature more slowly than
land surfaces do, and they influence the land nearby in the process. But this
ignores the reason for the slow changes in ocean surface temperature. It's a
lot like saying that the loud noise produced by a race car is the result of the
car's ability to appear in a far different location after a short time.

Which has more pressure, FIRST one gets all the points.
SSSSS [86.1K]

<u>Answer:</u>

area of point has more pressure.

<u>Explanation:</u>

formula's : pressure = force ÷ area

1st pressure,

200 ÷ 0.2 = 1000 Pa

2nd pressure,

200 ÷ 0.004 = 50000 Pa

<h3>Therefore the pressure on the area of the point is more.</h3>

The block has a weight of 75 lblb and rests on the floor for which μkμk = 0.4. The motor draws in the cable at a constant rate o
WINSTONCH [101]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

The block has a weight of 75 lb and rests on the floor for which \mu k = 0.4. The motor draws in the cable at a constant rate of 6 ft/sft/s. Neglect the mass of the cable and pulleys.

Determine the output of the motor at the instant \theta = 30^{o}.

Explanation:

We will consider that equilibrium condition in vertical direction is as follows.

           \sum F_{y} = 0

         N - W = 0

           N = W

or,      N = 75 lb

Again, equilibrium condition in the vertical direction is  as follows.

        \sum F_{x} = 0

       T_{2} - F_{k} = 0

         T_{2} = \mu_{k} N

                  = 0.4 \times 75 lb

                  = 30 lb

Now, the equilibrium equation in the horizontal direction is as follows.

         \sum F_{x} = 0

       T Cos (30^{o}) + T Cos (30^{o}) = T_{2}

          2T Cos (30^{o}) = T_{2}

    or,             T = \frac{T_{2}}{2 Cos (30^{o})}

                        = \frac{30}{2 Cos (30^{o})}

                        = \frac{30}{1.732}

                        = 17.32 lb

Now, we will calculate the output power of the motor as follows.

             P = Tv

                = 17.32 lb \times 6

                = 103.92 \times \frac{1}{550} \times \frac{hp}{ft/s}

                = 0.189 hp

or,             = 0.2 hp

Thus, we can conclude that output of the given motor is 0.2 hp.

an astronaut on an eva has wandered dangerously far away from the shuttle. she has also exhausted all the fuel in her jet pack.
V125BC [204]

The conservation of the momentum allows to find the result of how the astronaut can return to the spacecraft is:

  • Throwing the thruster away from the ship.

The momentum is defined as the product of the mass and the velocity of the body, for isolated systems the momentum  is conserved. If we define the system as consisting of the astronaut and the evo propellant, this system is isolated and the internal forces become zero. Let's find the moment in two moments.

Initial instant. Astronaut and thrust together.

        p₀ = 0

Final moment. The astronaut now the thruster in the opposite direction of the ship.

       m_f = m v + M v '

where m is propellant mass and M the astronaut mass.

As the moment is preserved.

       0 = m v + M v ’

      v ’= - \frac{m}{M} \ v  

We can see that the astronaut's speed is in the opposite direction to the propeller, that is, in the direction of the ship.

The magnitude of the velocity is given by the relationship between the masses.

In conclusion, using the conservation of the momentun we can find the result of how the astronaut can return to the ship is:

  • Throwing the thruster away from the ship.
