Answer:

Metals have more mass per unit of volume than wood.

Explanation:

Density is defined as the amount of matter contained in a unit of volume. A material that is denser than another will therefore have more mass per unit of volume.

The density of a body can affect buoyancy, bodies with low enough densities can float in fluids. For example wood can float in water while metals can't.

Which rope would have the longest wavelength-one with a frequency of 2 hz or one with a frequency of 3 hz?
Elis [28]
The frequency f is related to the wavelength \lambda by the equation
\lambda =  \frac{v}{f}
where v is the speed of the wave in the rope.

We can see from the formula that, if v is kept constant, smaller frequency means larger wavelength. So, the rope with frequency 2 Hz will have the longest wavelength.

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

P = 3.92 10¹⁰ W

Explanation:

The power is data by the expression

         P = W / t

the work of a force is

         W = F. y

the bold ones represent vectors. In this case the displacement is vertical upwards and the vertical forces upwards, therefore the angle is zero and the cos 0 = 1

          W = F y

we substitute

          P = F y / t

          P = F v

as the body rises at constant speed the acceleration is zero and from the equilibrium condition

            F -W = 0

            F = mg

we substitute

           P = m g v

let's calculate

           P 1.00 10⁹ 9.8  4

           P = 3.92 10¹⁰ W

natulia [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

First of all we shall calculate the velocity of composite mass . Let it be v . Applying law of conservation of momentum

mu - MU = ( m + M ) v

v = mu - MU /  ( m + M )

loss of kinetic energy

= 1/ 2 mu² + 1/2 MU² - 1/2 ( M +m ) v²

= 1/ 2 mu² + 1/2 MU² - 1/2 ( M +m ) (mu - MU)² / ( m + M )²

= 1/ 2 mu² + 1/2 MU² - 1/2  (mu - MU)² / ( m + M )

= 1/2 [ m²u² + mMu² +mMU² + m²U² - m²u² - M²U² - 2 muMU ] /  ( m + M )

=  1 / 2 [ mMu² + mMU² - 2 muMU ] /  ( m + M )

= 1 / 2mM  [ (u² + U² - 2 uU)  /  ( m + M )]

= 1/2 mM  x k

where

k =  [ (u² + U² - 2 uU)  /  ( m + M )]

Given

m = .004 kg

M = 4 kg

u = 890 ms⁻¹

U = 7 ms⁻¹

k = ( 890² + 7² - 2 x 890 x 7 ) / 4.004

= ( 792100 + 49 - 12460 ) / 4.004

= 194727.52

loss of kinetic energy

= 1/2 mM  x k

= .5 x .004 x 4 x 194727.52

= 1557.82 J .
