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

What is the purpose of experimentation in a research study
Nat2105 [25]
Hello,

The answer is to "prove your hypothesis".

Reason:

Researchers do experiments to prove there hypothesis they will most likely do the experiment a few times in older to have the conclusion valid therefore proving his or her experiment. 

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!

Newton’s third law in football?
trapecia [35]
Newtons third law of motion applies to football as when the ball is thrown, force is applied to the football thrown forward and also force back to the player. Therefore it states that every action has a reaction. The player does not get a huge force back from throwing the football due to the player having a bigger mass than the football being thrown.

In short, when the football is throw, there is a reaction with the ball and the player accordingly with the force put into the ball.

Which has the greater change in momentum, a 50 gram clay ball that strikes a wall at 1 m/s and sticks or a 50 gram superball tha
jek_recluse [69]

Answer: 50 gram superball that strikes the wall at 1 m/s and bounces away at 0.8 m/s has greater change in kinetic energy.

Explanation:

50 gram superball that strikes the wall at 1 m/s and bounces away at 0.8 m/s has the greater change in kinetic energy because the collision is elastic in nature that is bodies separates after collision and doesn't lose any kinetic energy.

Also for an elastic collision, both the momentum and energy of the bodies are conserved compare to inelastic collision where only momentum is conserved but not the kinetic energy(this is attributed to bodies that sticks together after collision).
