The reason for people to swim easier in salt water than fresh water is because of buoyancy

Explanation:

In fresh water there is lack of minerals and has fresh water alone. The density of fresh water is 1000 kg/m³. Hence, in fresh water cannot exert the suitable buoyancy for the swimmer to float easier than that of salt water.

But in Salt water due to enrichment of salts and minerals it is found that salt water has more density than fresh water. Here the salt water offers more buoyancy to the swimmer to lift him up in the water surface and to swim faster and easier than fresh water.

It is similar to that egg floats in the salt water and sinks inside the fresh water because of its own body weight.

Answer:

Energy transferred = 28.8 Joules.

1. Energy transferred = 144 Joules.

2. The unit of potential difference, volts can also be described as Joules per Coulombs.

3. Current, I = 6.945 Amperes.

Explanation:

Part A.

Given the following data;

Current, I = 1.2A

Time, t = 2 minutes

Potential difference, V = 12 volts.

To find the energy transfered;

Energy transferred = charge moved * potential difference

E = Q * V

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Energy transferred = (1.2 * 2) * 12

Energy transferred = 2.4 * 12

Energy transferred = 28.8 Joules.

Part B.

1. Given the following data;

Charge, Q = 24C

Potential difference = 6V

To find the energy transferred;

E = Q * V

Substituting into the equation, we have;

E = 24 * 6

E = 144 Joules.

2. Since we know that, Energy transferred = charge moved * potential difference

$Potential \; difference = \frac {Energy \; transferred}{Charged \; moved}$

The units of energy is Joules while the unit of the quantity of charge moved is Coulomb.

Therefore, the unit of potential difference becomes Joules per Coulomb.

3. Given the following data;

Potential difference = 18V

Energy transferred = 500J

Time, t = 4 minutes.

To find the current;

E = Q * V

Substituting into the equation, we have;

500 = Q*18

Q = 500/18

Q = 27.78C

But, Charge moved (Q) = current (I) * time (t)

Current, I = Q/t

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Current, I = 27.78/4

Current, I = 6.945 Amperes..

A uniformly charged sphere has a total charge of 300uc and a radius of 8cm. Find the electric field density at A point 16cm from

s2008m [1.1K]

E = kQ 

(r + h)²

where,

k = 9 × 10^9Nm²C^-2

Q = total charge, 300uC = 300 × 10^ -6C

r = 8 × 10^ -2m

h = 16 × 10^ -2m

then,

E = 9e9 * 300e^-6 

(8e^-2 + 16e^-2)²

E = 4687500N/C

Answer:

Speed at which it will reach the ground is given as

$v_f = 46.8 m/s$

Total time for which it will remain in air is given as

t = 6.3 s

Explanation:

As we know that the object is projected upwards with speed

$v_i = 15 m/s$

$g = - 9.81 m/s^2$

now when it will reach the ground then we have

$y = v_y t + \frac{1}{2} at^2$

so we have

$-100 = 15 t - \frac{1}{2}(-9.81) t^2$

$4.905 t^2 - 15 t - 100 = 0$

so we have

$t = 6.3 s$

Now speed of the object when it reaches the ground is given as

$v_f = v_i + at$

$v_f = -15 + (9.81)(6.3)$

$v_f = 46.8 m/s$

A ball with a mass of 5.0 g is moving at a speed of 2.0 m/s. Would doubling the mass or doubling the speed have a greater effect

Sloan [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

doubling the speed will have a greater impact on kinetic energy as KE is a product of mass and the square of velocity.

KE = ½mv²

Base KE = ½(0.005)2.0² = 0.01 J

doubling the mass

KE = ½(0.010)2.0² = 0.02 J

doubling the velocity

KE = ½(0.005)4.0² = 0.04 J
