A student measures the mass 8cm3 block of brown sugar to be 12.9g. what is the density of the brown sugar

Answer:

$1.6\ g/cm^{3}$

Explanation:

Density is defined as mass per unit volume of an object expressed as $\rho=\frac {m}{v}$ where $\rho$ is the density, m is the mass of sugar and v is the volume of the sugar. Considering that the volume is given as 8cm3 for sugar then we substitute this for v and mass of 12.9 g we substitute for g then the density will be

$\rho=\frac {12.9 g}{8 cm3}=1.6125\ g/cm^{3}\approx 1.6\ g/cm^{3}$

What is one way in which radioactive decay is used to benefit society?

snow_lady [41]

They are used to measure and map effluent and pollution discharges from factories and sewerage plants, and the movement of sand around harbours, rivers and bays. Radioactive materials used for such purposes have short half-lives and decay to background levels within days.

The two pucks of equal mass did not move linearly (they came to a stop) after the collision due to the conservation of linear mo

weeeeeb [17]

Compared to the pucks given, the pair of pucks will rotate at the same rate.

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

The law of conservation of the angular momentum expresses that when no outer torque follows upon an article, no difference in angular momentum will happen. At the point when an item is turning in a shut framework and no outside torques are applied to it, it will have no change in angular momentum.

The conservation of the angular momentum clarifies the angular quickening of an ice skater as she brings her arms and legs near the vertical rotate of revolution. In the event, that the net torque is zero, at that point angular momentum is steady or saved.

By twice the mass yet keeping the speeds unaltered, also twice the angular momentum's to the two-puck framework. Be that as it may, we likewise double the moment of inertia. Since $L=I \times \omega$ , the turning rate of the two-puck framework must stay unaltered.

A series of pulses, each of amplitude 0.1 m, is sent down a string that is attached to a post at one end. The pulses are reflect

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

A_resulting = 0.2 m

Explanation:

Let's analyze the impact of the pulse with the pole, this is a fixed obstacle that does not move therefore by the law of action and reluctant, the force that the pole applies on the rope is of equal magnitude to the force of the rope on the pole (pulse), but opposite directional, so the reflected pulse reverses its direction and sense.

With this information we analyze a point on the string where the incident pulse is and each reflected with an amplitude A = 0.1 m, the resulting is

A_res = 2A

A_resultant = 2 .01

A_resulting = 0.2 m

A 22kg Accelerates at a rate of 2.3 m/s. What is the magnitude of the net force acting on the bike?

Tcecarenko [31]

magnitude of the net force = mass x acceleraton

= 22 x 2.3

=50.6 N
