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.

Reto: Aníbal desea construir una carpa de base hexagonal de 1,40 m de altura. El vértice de la base es de 0,80m y la longitud de
Rudiy27

Answer:

1.- para cubrir la superficie lateral 4.32 metros²

2.- Area de la base  2.15 metros²

3.- Volumen 1 m³

4.- Area total 6.47 metros²

Explanation:

El área lateral sera calcular el area de seis triangulos iguales cuya base es

0.80 de base x 6 lados = 4.80 metros perimetro de la base

4.80 perimetro de base x 1.80 arista lateral / 2 = 4.32m2

Area de la base:

Perímetro x Apotema / 2

Siendo la Apotema la altura de los triangulos que componen un hexagono calculada utilizando el teorema de pitágoras:

\sqrt{0.8^2 + (0.8/2)^2} = Apotema

Apotema = 0.894427191

Area: 4.80 x 0.894427191 / 2 = 2.146625258

sumando el area de la base mas el area lateral se obtiene el area total

2.15 + 4.32 = 6.47 metros

Volumen de la pirámide:

Area de la Base x Altura / 3

2.15 x 1.40 / 3 = 1.00333 m3

You drop a stone down off a bridge. You are able to count to 4.0 seconds when it finally hits the water. How high is the bridge?
mart [117]

Answer:

The height of the bridge is 78.4 m.

Explanation:

Given;

time of the stone motion off the bridge, t = 4.0 s

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

The height of the bridge is given by;

h = ut + ¹/₂gt²

where;

u is the initial velocity of the stone, u = 0

h = ¹/₂gt²

h = ¹/₂(9.8)(4)²

h = 78.4 m

Therefore, the height of the bridge is 78.4 m.
