A geology student found an irregularly shaped rock, with a mass of 28.63 grams, and placed it into a graduated cylinder with a v

olume of 13.31 mL water. If the water level increased to 19.73 mL after the rock was placed in, what is the density of the rock, in g/mL?

Answer : The density of the rock is, 4.459 g/ml

Explanation : Given,

Mass of the rock = 28.63 g

Initial volume of water = 13.31 ml

Increased volume of water = 19.73 ml

First we have to calculate the volume of the rock.

Volume of rock = Increased volume of water - Initial volume of water

Volume of rock = 19.73 ml - 13.31 ml = 6.42 ml

Now we have to calculate the density of rock.

Formula used :

Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the density of the rock.

Density=\frac{28.63g}{6.42ml}=4.459g/ml

Therefore, the density of the rock is, 4.459 g/ml

Density is simply the ratio of mass over volume. In this case, the volume of the rock is the difference of after and before it was dropped into the cylinder.

volume = 19.73 mL – 13.31 mL = 6.42 mL

 

density = 28.63 g / 6.42 mL

<span>density = 4.46 g/mL</span>

Answer:

Explanation:

1. A measure of how quickly velocity is changing is the acceleration

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time. The rate at which a body is changing its velocity is known as the acceleration.

It is measured in the unit m/s²

2. Speed in a given direction is the velocity

Velocity is a vector quantity which measures the magnitude of motion in a specific direction. It is simply speed in a given direction.

When we say a motorcycle travels at the rate of 5m/s due east, we are describing the velocity of such body.

3. Force that resists moving one object against another is the friction

Friction is a force that opposes motion. It prevents a body from moving.

4. Measure of the pull of gravity on an object Weight

Weight is a measure of the amount of gravitational force on a body. It is mathematically expressed as;

         W = mg

W is the weight, m is the mass and g is the acceleration due to gravity

5 Tendency of an object to resist a change in motion is inertia

Inertia is the tendency of body to resist change in motion. It is the ability of a body to remain in a perpetual state of rest.

6 Size is the magnitude

Why is electromagnetic radiation a transverse wave?
Yuki888 [10]

Since the direction of particle displacement in electromagnetic waves is also perpendicular to the direction of motion, generating the waveform of visible light and other forms of electromagnetic radiation, they are also transverse waves.

In a transverse wave, the displacement is perpendicular to the direction of motion (at an angle of 90 degrees Celsius). The direction of displacement (up and down) in the case of the ocean wave is perpendicular to the direction of wave motion (horizontally along the water), making it a transverse wave.

How far a particle has moved from its original starting position, or, in the case of an ocean wave, how high or low the water is, is measured by its displacement or amplitude.

if the chromosome number in the sporophyte generation of a plant is 32 what is its number in the gametophyte generation?
xz_007 [3.2K]

Chromosomes have hereditary function that are capable of self-duplication and they have thread-like structures seen inside the nucleus of plant and animal. In plants, they go through a cycle called alteration of generation that has multicellular stages. One is sporophyte that is a diploid, and the other is gametophyte with a haploid.

<span>Moreover, spores are produce through meiosis so it go through a process of chromosome reduction in order to create a haploid spores. While, gametes undergo mitosis and the structure is already a haploid, which means that the number of chromosomes will not change in order to produce haploid. In this case, the plant have both spores and gametes and the similarities is that, they are both singles celled and a haploid. Therefore, the number of the chromosome in the gametophyte generation is also 32.</span>
