specific gravity of the unknown sample = 2.68

Explanation:

True weight of solid=31.6 N

Apparent weight=19.8 N

loss in weight= 31.6-19.8=11.8 N

Loss in weight= weight of the liquid displaced

so weight of water displaced= 11.8 N

now specific gravity= weight of object/ weight of liquid displaced

specific gravity= 31.6/11.8

specific gravity= 2.68

calculate the time (in years) it would take to send a message to the Galactic Capitol located at the center of our Milky Way gal
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

The total time is \bf{52850~Yr}.

Explanation:

Given:

The distance between Galactic Capitol and Earth is, d = 2.5 \times 10^{20}~m

The speed of light is, c = 3 \times 10^{8}~m/s

The time taken by the message to reach and come back to Earth is given by

t &=& \dfrac{2d}{c}\\~~&=& \dfrac{2(2.5 \times 10^{20}~m)}{3 \times 10^{8}~m/s}\\~~&=& 1.6 \times 10^{12}~s\\~~&=& \dfrac{1.6 \times 10^{12}~s}{(86400 \times 365)~s}~Yr\\~~&\approx& 52849~Yr

In addition they take 1 year to decide to reply.

Thus, the total time is 25850~Yr.

PLEASE HELP Which of the following describes the efficiency of real machines? 1.Efficiency is 100% 2.IMA is always larger than t
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

IMA is always larger than the AMA

Explanation:

IMA is Ideal Mechanical Advantage and it equals the length of effort that is divided by the length of resistance which is given by the formula

IMA= Fr/Fe

Where Fr is the resistance force

Fe is the effort force.

IM= de/dr

Where de is the distance of the applied effort  

dr is the distance traveled by the load.

In any real machine, the effort is needed to overcome friction and because of this, the ideal mechanical advantage(IMA) is always larger than the actual mechanical advantage (AMA)
