An object is placed in a fluid and then released. Assume that the object either floats to the surface (settling so that the obje

ct is partly above and partly below the fluid surface) or sinks to the bottom. (Note that, for Parts A through D, you should assume that the object has settled in equilibrium.)
A.Consider the following statement: The magnitude of the buoyancy force is equal to the weight of fluid displaced by the object.
Under what circumstances is this statement true?

A. always
B. only for an object that floats
C. only for an object that sinks
D. never

Answer:

A. Always true

Explanation:

This is because, the buoyancy force is always present whenever and object is placed in a fluid. The magnitude of this  buoyancy force is always equal to the weight of the fluid    displaced by the object according to Archimedes' principle. This principle is true irrespective of whether the object floats or not. When any object is inserted in a fluid, the buoyancy force is always present irrespective of whether it floats or not.

Answer:

The correct option is;

A. always

Explanation:

Archimedes' principle states that when an object is immersed in a fluid, and it is either partially or wholly submerged, the upward force acting on the object, that is the buoyancy force, is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.

That is the object immersed in the fluid is observed to have an apparent reduction in weight that is equal to the weight of the volume of the fluid displaced by the  immersed  object.

Therefore, the above principle always occurs.

A jet airplane is traveling west from Austin, Texas to Miami, Florida. It has an average speed with no wind of 600 mph. An obser
katrin [286]

consider the west direction as positive direction of motion

V' = velocity of airplane relative to observer on ground = 580 mph

v = velocity of wind relative to observer on ground

V = average speed of airplane with no wind = 600 mph

relative velocity is given as

V' = V + v

inserting the values

580 = 600 + v

v = 580 - 600

v = - 20 mph

the negative sign indicates the direction of wind is opposite to direction of airplane , east

hence speed of wind is 20 mph in east direction.

Answer:

c. the rotation and revolution of the moon are the same as the earth

Explanation:

that we only see one side of the moon because the moon rotates around the Earth at the exact same speed as it rotates around its own axis, so that the same side of the moon is constantly facing the surface of the earth.

<span>A 67.0 kg crate is being raised by means of a rope. Its upward acceleration is 3.50 m/s2. What is the force exerted by the rope on the crate? 

</span>Newton's Second Law<span> of Motion states, “The force acting on an object is equal to the mass of that object times its acceleration.” We calculate as follows:

If all the stars in an elliptical galaxy traveled random directions in their orbits, the elliptical galaxy would be type
Lemur [1.5K]

The answer would be E7. Galaxies categorized as E0 look to be nearly perfect, while those registered as E7 seem much extended than they are widespread. It is worth noting, though, that a galaxy's look is connected to how it lies on the sky when viewed from Earth. An E7 galaxy is very long and thin or the flattest of them all.
