Why is it that the weight of an object weighing 1N air, weighs more when immersed in water ?

There is no "why", because that's not what happens. The truth is
exactly the opposite.

Whatever the weight of a solid object is in air, that weight will appear
to be LESS when the object is immersed in water.

The object is lifted by a force equal to the weight of the fluid it displaces.
It displaces the same amount of air or water, and any amount of water
weighs more than the same amount of air. So the force that lifts the
object in water is greater than the force that lifts it in air, and the object
appears to weigh less in the water.

A shell is fired from the ground with an initial speed of 1.60 × 103 m/s (approximately five times the speed of sound) at an ini

Volgvan

Answer:

The horizontal range will be $2.55\times 10^5m$

Explanation:

We have given initial speed of the shell u = $1.6\times 10^3m/sec$

Angle of projection = 51°

Acceleration due to gravity $g=9.8m/sec^2$

We have to find maximum range

Horizontal range in projectile motion is given by

$R=\frac{u^2sin2\Theta }{g}=\frac{(1.60\times 10^3)^2sin(2\times 51^{\circ})}{9.81}=2.55\times 10^5m$

So the horizontal range will be $2.55\times 10^5m$
