Downward force acting on the ball is 19.6N

Net force acting on the ball is 1960V N

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u />

Given:

Mass of the ball, m = 2kg

Density of ball, σ = 800 kg/m³

Density of water, ρ = 1000 kg/m³

Downward force acting by the ball in the vessel = mg

where, g = 9.8m/s²

F = 2 X 9.8

F = 19.6N

Net force acting on the ball:

Fnet = (ρ - σ) Vg

where,

V is the volume of water

Fnet = (1000 - 800) V X 9.8

Fnet = 1960V N

If the volume is known, then substitute the value of V to find the net force.

Thus, Downward force acting on the ball is 19.6N

Net force acting on the ball is 1960V N

platform diving in the olympic games takes place at two heights: 5 meters and 10 meters. What is the velocity of a diver enterin

posledela

1) Velocity: 9.9 m/s and 14 m/s

The motion of the diver is a free-fall motion, so it is a uniform accelerated motion. Choosing downward as positive direction, the final velocity can be found by using the following suvat equation:

$v^2-u^2=2as$

where

v is the final velocity

u = 0 is the initial velocity (the diver starts from rest)

$a=g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

s is the displacement

For the diver jumping from 5 m, s = 5 m, so

$v=\sqrt{2as}=\sqrt{2(9.8)(5)}=9.9 m/s$

For the diver jumping from 10 m, s = 10 m, so

$v=\sqrt{2as}=\sqrt{2(9.8)(10)}=14 m/s$

2) Time: 1.01 s and 1.43 s

The time of flight of each diver can be found by using the other suvat equation

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

And since u = 0, it can be reduced to

$s=\frac{1}{2}at^2$

For the diver jumping from 5 m, s = 5 m, so we find

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(5)}{9.8}}=1.01 s$

For the diver jumping from 10 m, s = 10 m, so we find

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(10)}{9.8}}=1.43 s$

In an atomic clock there are approximately 9.193 × 109oscillations of the specified light emitted by cesium-133 atoms. The text

Aleks [24]

Explanation:

6000 years = 6000 x 365 x 24 x 60 x 60

= 1.892 x 10¹¹ second

gain is 1 second

1 second is equivalent to 9.193 × 10⁹ oscillations .

In 1.892 x 10¹¹ second , change in oscillation is 9.193 × 10⁹ oscillation

in one second change in oscillation = (9.193 / 1.892 ) x 10⁹⁻¹¹

= 4.859 x 10⁻² oscillations .

Body 1 has a mass m, and its moving in a circle with a radius r at a speed v. It has a centripetal force. F acting on it. If bod

cluponka [151]

Answer:

The centripetal force on body 2 is 8 times of the centripetal force in body 1.

Explanation:

Body 1 has a mass m, and its moving in a circle with a radius r at a speed v. The centripetal force acting on it is given by :

$F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

Body 2 has a mass 2m and its moving in a circle of radius 4r at a speed 4v. The centripetal force on body 2 is :

$F'=\dfrac{2m\times (4v)^2}{4r}\\\\F'=\dfrac{2m\times 16v^2}{4r}\\\\F'=8\dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\\\F'=8F$

So, the centripetal force on body 2 is 8 times of the centripetal force in body 1.

A person is standing on a raft; their

krok68 [10]

Answer:

The volume of water displaced by the raft is 0.233 m³

Explanation:

The question relates to Archimedes' principle which states that the buoyant force experienced by an object immersed in a fluid is equal to the weight of (the force of gravity on) the displaced fluid

The given parameters are;

The combined mass of the person and the raft, m = 233 kg

The liquid on which the raft is located = Water

The density of water, $\rho _{water}$ = 1000 kg/m³
