Why is an object's density expressed as a combination of two units

Physics
1 answer:
miss Akunina [59]3 years ago
6 0
Well, first of all, EVERY physical quantity is measured in a combination
of 2 or more units, except for mass, length, time, and electric charge. 
ALL other units are made out of these.  So it should not surprise you.

[  Example:  Speed  =  (length) / (time)  ]

Density is not the mass of a substance.  It's the mass of a substance in
a standard volume of it.  So the density is made of the mass in any lump
and the volume of that lump.  That way, no matter how much of a substance
you have, you can always compare the lump you have to all other substances.

Question 5 of 5<br> What do the arrows in the photograph represent?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

BALANCED FORCES

When two forces acting on an object are equal in size but act in opposite directions, we say that they are balanced forces . a stationary object stays still. ... a moving object continues to move at the same speed and in the same direction.

La tensión en newtons necesaria para que una onda transversal cuya longitud de onda es 3.33 cm vibre a razón de 625 ciclos por s
NemiM [27]

Answer:

9.34 N

Explanation:

First of all, we can calculate the speed of the wave in the string. This is given by the wave equation:

v=f \lambda

where

f is the frequency of the wave

\lambda is the wavelength

For the waves in this string we have:

f=625 Hz, since it completes 625 cycles per second

\lambda=3.33 cm = 0.033 m is the wavelength

So the speed of the wave is

v=(625)(0.0333)=20.6 m/s

The speed of the waves in a string is related to the tension in the string by

v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}} (1)

where

T is the tension in the string

\mu=\frac{m}{L} is the linear density

In this problem:

m=16.5 g = 16.5\cdot 10^{-3} kg is the mass of the string

L = 0.75 m is the its length

Solving the equation (1) for T, we find the tension:

T=\mu v^2 = \frac{m}{L} v^2 = \frac{16.5\cdot 10^{-3}}{0.75}(20.6)^2=9.34 N

A sports car skids off of a wet mountain road at 48.5 m/s and lands in the river, 110
Oxana [17]

Answer:

  about 4.74 seconds

Explanation:

The time to fall distance d from height h is given by ...

  t = √(2d/g)

  t = √(2·110 m/(9.8 m/s^2)) ≈ 4.74 s

It will take the car about 4.74 seconds to fall 110 meters to the river.

__

We assume the car's speed is horizontal, so does not add or subtract anything to/from the time to fall from the height.

Air "breaks down" when the electric field strength reaches 3 × 106 n/c, causing a spark. A parallel-plate capacitor is made from
Lera25 [3.4K]

Electric field between the plates of parallel plate capacitor is given as

E = \frac{Q}{A\epsilon_0}

here area of plates of capacitor is given as

A = 0.055 * 0.055

A = 3.025 * 10^{-3}

also the maximum field strength is given as

E = 3 * 10^6 N/C

now we will plug in all data to find the maximum possible charge on capacitor plates

3 * 10^6 = \frac{Q}{3.025 * 10^{-3}*8.85 * 10^{-12}}

Q = 8.03 * 10^{-8} C

so the maximum charge that plate will hold will be given by above
