Yes that's a true statement. That's why grandmother put a hot water bottle to warm up her bed, and not a hot bar of steel or lead.

A small metal sphere weighs 0.34 N in air and has a volume of 13 cm3 . What is the acceleration of the sphere as it falls throug
Xelga [282]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the balance of forces. Said balance will be given between buoyancy force and weight, both described as derived from Newton's second law, are given as

Buoyancy force

F_B = V\rho g

Here,

V = Volume

\rho=Density of air

g = Acceleration due to gravity

Weight

F_W = mg

m = mass

g = Gravity

Our values are given as,

\text{Weight of the sphere} = W = 0.34 N

\text{Volume} = V = 13 cm^3 = 13*10^{-6}m^3

\text{density of air} =\rho =1.29kg/m^3

\text{gravity}= g = 9.8 m/s^2

Then,

F = V\rho g

Replacing,

F = (13*10^{-6}m^3 )(1.29Kg/m^3)( 9.8 m/s^2) = 1.6434* 10^{-4} N

Now net force is ,

F_{net} = mg - F

Mass of the sphere is

m = \frac{W}{g} = \frac{0.34N}{9.8m/s^2} = 0.03469 kg

Now acceleration of the sphere is

a = \frac{F_{net}}{m}

a = \frac{( 0.34 N)- (1.6434* 10^{-4} N)}{0.03469 kg}

a = 9.822m/s^2

Therefore the acceleration of the sphere as it falls through water is 9.822m/s^2

20. GP A sinusoidal wave traveling in the negative x direction (to the left) has an amplitude of 20.0cm, a wavelength of 35.0cm,
umka21 [38]

The angular frequency of the wave is determined as 75.4 rad/s.

<h3>What is wave function?</h3>

A wave function is a mathematical equation for the motion of the wave.

y(x, t) = A sin(kx + ωt + Φ)

where;

  • ω is angular speed
  • k is angular wavenumber
  • Φ is phase angle

<h3>What is angular frequency?</h3>

The angular frequency is the angular displacement of any wave element per unit of time or the rate of change of the waveform phase.

<h3>Angular frequency</h3>

ω = 2πf

ω = 2π(12)

ω = 75.4 rad/s

Thus, the angular frequency of the wave is determined as 75.4 rad/s.

Argon, atomic number 18, has an atomic weight of 39.9. Potassium, atomic number 19, has an atomic weight of 39.1. Which of these
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer: D

Explanation:

Atomic weight is measured by adding the number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus. Argon's atomic number is 18 while potassium's is 19. This means that Argon will always have 18 protons while potassium will always have 19 protons.

To make the numbers easier to work with, round each atomic weight. We'll say the atomic weight of potassium is 39 and the atomic weight of argon is 40. To see how many neutrons each one has, I can set up a simple equation for each using the following equation:

Atomic weight = protons + neutrons

Potassium:

39 = 19 + N  -->  N = 20

Argon:

40 = 18 + N  -->  N = 22

An atom is defined by the number of protons it has, but the number of neutrons can vary. We call these isotopes, or atoms with the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons. As the math shows, argon typically has more neutrons per atom than potassium does.
