Austin performed an experiment. He put 100mL of vegetable oil (density 0.9 g/ml) in a graduated cylinder. He put a 100g mass of

an unknown metal in to the oil and it sank while displacing 11 mL of oil. How much should the unknown metal weigh in the oil?

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of displaced oil = 11 x  .9

= 9.9 gm

9.9 x 10⁻³ kg

weight of displaced oil = 9.9 x 9.81 x 10⁻³ N

= .097 N .

buoyant force by oil = .097 N

weight of unknown metal = .1 x 9.8

= .98 N .

weight of metal in oil = .98 - .097

= .883 N .

Acceleration of gravity on jupiter
Viefleur [7K]

The acceleration of gravity on Jupiter is listed as  <em>24.79 m/s²</em> .

That's roughly  2.53  times its value on Earth.  So if you weigh, let's say,
130 pounds on Earth, then you would weigh about 328 pounds on Jupiter.

A 300 g glass thermometer initially at 23 ◦C is put into 236 cm3 of hot water at 87 ◦C. Find the final temperature of the thermo
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

74^{\circ} C

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of glass,m=300 g

T_1=23^{\circ}

Volume,V=236cm^3

Mass of water=density\times volume=1\times 236=236 g

Density of water=1g/cm^3

Temperature of hot water,T=87^{\circ}

Specific heat of glass,C_g=0.2cal/g^{\circ}C

Specific heat of water,C_w=1 cal/g^{\circ}C

Q_{glass}=m_gC_g(T_f-T_1)=300\times 0.2(T_f-23)

Q_{water}=m_wC_w(T_f-T)=236\times 1(T_f-87)

Q_{glass}+Q_{water}=0

300\times 0.2(T_f-23)+236\times 1(T_f-87)

60T_f-1380+236T_f-20532=0

296T_f=20532+1380=21912

T_f=\frac{21912}{296}=74^{\circ} C

As a system expands, it absorbs 52.5 J of energy in the form of heat from the surroundings. The piston is working against a pres
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Vi = 0.055 m³ = 55 L

Explanation:

From first Law of Thermodynamics, we know that:

ΔQ = ΔU + W

where,

ΔQ = Heat absorbed by the system = 52.5 J

ΔU = Change in Internal Energy = -102.5 J (negative sign shows decrease in internal energy of the system)

W = Work Done in Expansion by the system = ?

Therefore,

52.5 J = - 102.5 J + W

W = 52.5 J + 102.5 J

W = 155 J

Now, the work done in a constant pressure condition is given by:

W = PΔV

W = P(Vf - Vi)

where,

P = Constant Pressure = (0.5 atm)(101325 Pa/1 atm) = 50662.5 Pa

Vf = Final Volume of System = (58 L)(0.001 m³/1 L) = 0.058 m³

Vi = Initial Volume of System = ?

Therefore,

155 J = (50662.5 Pa)(0.058 m³ - Vi)

Vi = 0.058 m³ - 155 J/50662.5 Pa

Vi = 0.058 m³ - 0.003 m³

<u>Vi = 0.055 m³ = 55 L</u>

Give an example to explain that motion is relative in nature
Maurinko [17]
Consider a long train moving at speed v. Now consider a passenger throwing a ball inside this train, towards the back of the train, with same velocity v (but in the opposite direction of the train movement). 

- A passenger inside the train will see the ball moving with speed v
- For an observer outside the train, however, the ball will appear as still. In fact, for him the ball will have a speed v (given by the movement of the train) -v (velocity of the ball but moving in the opposite direction), so the net velocity will be v+(-v)=0.
