Why is a block of gold more dense than a block of iron of equal size ?

Physics
1 answer:
weeeeeb [17]4 years ago
6 0

-- Gold is a more dense substance than iron.  At 19.3 times the density
of water, it's in the top few most dense substances in all of nature.
The density of iron is only 7.87 ... only 40% the density of gold !

-- Density doesn't depend on how much of the substance you have.
A flake of gold foil is still more dense than an iron battleship.

An assistant for a football team carries a 26.0 kg cooler of water from the top row of the stadium, which is a distance h = 17.5
frozen [14]

The weight of the cooler is (mg). That's (26)(9.8) = 254.8 Newtons.

Its gravitational potential energy while it's up in the top row is (mgh). That's (254.8)(17.5) = 4,459 Joules.

That's how much work it took to get the cooler up to the top row, and that's the energy it gives up when it moves back down to the bench.

In order to bring it down . . .

-- Gravity does 4,459 joules of work on the cooler.

-- The team assistant does NEGATIVE 4,459 joules of work on it.

Answer

Voltage is how fast the electrons flow. Power is a use of voltage times the volumes of electrons. The higher the voltage the more power you have with the same current.

A soccer ball is kicked horizontally off a bridge with a height of 36m. The ball travels 25m horizontally before it hits the pav
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

9.22 m/s

Explanation:

Vertical height, y = 36 m

Horizontal distance, d = 25 m

Let the initial velocity of projection is u and it is projected horizontally.

Let t be the time taken by the ball to hit the ground.

For horizontal motion

horizontal distance = horizontal velocity x time

d = u x t

25 = u x t .... (1)

Use second equation of motion for vertical direction

y = 0.5 x g t², as the initial vertical velocity is zero.

36 = 0.5 x 9.8 x t²

t = 2.7 second

Put in equation (1)

25 = u x 2.7

u = 9.22 m/s

Thus, the initial velocity with which the ball is projected horizontally is 9.22 m/s.
