the mass of a brick is 4 kg, find the mass of water displaced by it when completely immersed in water.​
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

The correct answer is = 1.6

Explanation:

Density of water = 1000kg/m³ = d₁

Mass of brick = 4kg = m

Density of brick = 2.5 g/cm³ = 2.5 × 1000 =2500 kg/m³ = d₂

Volume of brick = m/d₂ = 4/2500 =16/10000 = 0.0016 L = v

Buoyant Force = v × d₁ × g          (g= acceleration due to gravity =9.8m/s²)

= 0.0016 × 1000 × 9.8 = 15.68 Newtons

By the Archimedes' Principle, the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by an object.

Weight of the water displaced=Buoyant Force

=Mass of water displaced × g,

as weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity

15.68= mass of brick × 9.8

15.68/9.8 =Mass of water displaced

1.6 kg = Mass of water displaced

. A student claims that if lighting strikes a metal flagpole, the force exerted by the Earth’s magnetic field on the current in
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, current generated from lightning range from

10⁴ A < I < 10^5 A

We know that,

The magnetic force is given as

F = iLB

The magnetic field on the earth surface is

B = 10^-5 T

So, let assume the worst case of a 15m flag pole

L = 15m

Then,

F = iLB

F = 10^5 × 10 × 10^-5

F = 15 N

Therefore, 15N is fairly strong so it will come to the material that was use for the material of the flag pole.

Therefore, it is possible that the student is right depending on the material of the flag pole.

A 61.0-kg person jumps from rest off a 10.0-m-high tower straight down into the water. Neglect air resistance. She comes to rest
9966 [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

In this case, law of conservation of energy will be implemented. It states that "the energy of the system remains conserved until or unless some external force act on it. Energy of the system may went through the conversion process like kinetic energy into potential and potential into kinetic energy.But their total always remain the same in conserved systems."

Given data:

Height of tower = 10.0 m

Depth of the pool = 3.00 cm

Mass of person = 61.0 kg

Solution:

Initial energy = Final energy

U_{i} =  (K.E) + U_{f}

As the person was at height initially so it has the potential energy only.

mg(h_{1} +h_{2}) = K.E + mgh_{2}

K.E = mgh_{1}

K.E = (61.0)(9.8)(10)\\K.E = 5978 J

Lets find out the magnitude of the force that the water is exerting on the diver.

W =ΔK.E

F.h_{2} = 5978\\

F = \frac{5978}{3}

F = 1992.67 N

A person travels by car from one city to another with different constant speeds between pair of cities. She drives for 36 min at
Softa [21]

 Change minutes to hrs, divide by 60:
30 min = .50 hrs
45 min = .75 hrs
12 min = .20 hrs
----------------
total + 1.45 hrs, total travel time
:

let a = average speed for the trip
:
Write a dist equation, dist = speed * time
:
80(.5) + 100(.20) + 40(.75) = 1.45a
40 + 20 + 30 = 1.45a
90 = 1.45a
a =
a = 62.069 km/h, for the entire trip
and
90 km is the total distance
