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

Answer:

(a) r = 1.062·R $_E$ = $\frac{531}{500} R_E$

(b) r = $\frac{33}{25} R_E$

Explanation:

Here we have escape velocity v $_e$ given by

$v_e =\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R_E} }$ and the maximum height given by

$\frac{1}{2} v^2-\frac{GM}{R_E} = -\frac{GM}{r}$

Therefore, when the initial speed is 0.241v $_e$ we have

v = $0.241\times \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R_E} }$ so that;

v² = $0.058081\times {\frac{2GM}{R_E} }$

v² = ${\frac{0.116162\times GM}{R_E} }$

$\frac{1}{2} v^2-\frac{GM}{R_E} = -\frac{GM}{r}$ is then

$\frac{1}{2} {\frac{0.116162\times GM}{R_E} }-\frac{GM}{R_E} = -\frac{GM}{r}$

Which gives

$-\frac{0.941919}{R_E} = -\frac{1}{r}$ or

r = 1.062·R $_E$

(b) Here we have

$K_i = 0.241\times \frac{1}{2} \times m \times v_e^2 = 0.241\times \frac{1}{2} \times m \times \frac{2GM}{R_E} = \frac{0.241mGM}{R_E}$

Therefore we put $\frac{0.241GM}{R_E}$ in the maximum height equation to get

$\frac{0.241}{R_E} -\frac{1}{R_E} =-\frac{1}{r}$

From which we get

r = 1.32·R $_E$

ME = KE - PE

Where the KE = PE required to leave the earth we have

ME = KE - KE = 0

The least initial mechanical energy to leave the earth is zero.

What is the torque τa about axis a due to the force f⃗ ? express the torque about axis a at cartesian coordinates (0,0)?

pentagon [3]

Answer:

$\tau_a = F a sin \theta$

Explanation:

The torque of a force is given by:

$\tau = F d sin \theta$

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the distance between the point of application of the force and the centre of rotation of the system

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the force and d

In this problem, we have:

$F$ , the force

$a$ , the distance of application of the force from the centre (0,0)

$\theta$ , the angle between the direction of the force and a

Therefore, the torque is

$\tau_a = F a sin \theta$
