The density of water is 1 gram per cubic centimeter. A more dense object will sink, and a less dense object will float. Will a m

arble with a radius of 1.4 cm and a mass of 9 grams sink or float in water?

Ah clever. So you need two formulas.

1) Volume of the marble.

   4(pi)r^3/3
= 4(pi)(1.4)^3/3
<span>= 11.49 (approx)
</span>
2) Formula for density.
  
    D = M / V
        = 9 / 11.49
        = 0.78

0.78 < 1

Therefore the marble will float.

We need to know the density of the marble to know whether it will float or sink. If density is less than 1, it will float. If density more than 1, it will sink


Density  = mass divided by volume

Given:

  1. Mass = 9 grams
  2. Volume = 11.49 cubic centimeters

Since marble is spherical, we use formula for <u>volume of  sphere</u>

<u>Volume of sphere</u> = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}

since r = 1.4, we find the volume of marble:

Volume of marble = \frac{4}{3}\pi (1.4)^{3}\\=11.49


<u>Now, finding density</u>:

D=\frac{mass}{volume}\\D=\frac{9}{11.49}\\D=0.78

If D, the object will float.

Since 0.78, the marble will float.

Which expression is a difference of squares with a factor of 2x + 5? 4x2 + 10 4x2 – 10 4x2 + 25 4x2 – 25
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

  4x^2 -25

Step-by-step explanation:

The other factor of the difference of squares is the "conjugate" of the given one: (2x -5). Then their product is ...

  (2x +5)(2x -5) = (2x)^2 -(5)^2 = 4x^2 -25

Five positive integers have
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is 6 and there are 5 intergers.

You'd multiply 5*6=30. That means that the sum is 30.

The values could be: 2 3 7 9 9

These values add up to 20

Have a mode of 9

Have a median of 7

Have a mean of 6

To find the range you would subtract 9 and 2. That gives you 5.

(i don't know if that's the greatest possible range. But 5 would be the range here)
