If the liquid is denser than the coin, then the coin will eventually
come to rest floating, with part of it above the surface of the liquid. 

That's exactly the situation if you drop the coin into mercury. 

Density of copper . . . 8.96 gm/cm³
                   iron . . .  7.87
                   zinc . . . 7.13
                  silver . . 10.5
                  nickel . . .8.91
                  lead . . . 11.4

Density of mercury . . . 13.53 gm/cm³  !

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

The salt is dissolved by the water and heat. If the pot isn't boiling, the salt wouldn't dissolve, it would stay undissolved.

If different groups of scientist have access to the same data, how can they draw different conclusions?
vazorg [7]

If a group of scientists have access to one data, from the data they can draw conclusions either through mathematics or just thought experiments.

Those thought experiments is different for any scientist, no one thinks the same especially when the topic is difficult.

For example when talking about parallel universes, scientists have come up with the weirdest examples of a multiverse. Some thinking of a brane universe, while others say that its a landscape universe, quilted universe. All of their 'evidence' seems correct but they have opposite meanings.

A weird analogy is 'religion'. All the religions seem to have 'evidences' (hardly) that attract people towards it, they all make sense but that doesn't mean that their evidence is right.

----

Now if they're trying to break down the data using maths, there could be a great uncertainty and measurement error that if done enough could change the whole idea behind the data.

Interesting question, I can babble for days for this but lets keep it as that

This question is incomplete; here is the complete question:

Marco is conducting an experiment. He knows the wave that he is working with has a wavelength of 32.4 cm. If he measures the frequency as 3 hertz, which statement about the wave is accurate?

A. The wave has traveled 32.4 cm in 3 seconds.

B. The wave has traveled 32.4 cm in 9 seconds.

C. The wave has traveled 97.2 cm in 3 seconds.

D. The wave has traveled 97.2 cm in 1 second.

The answer to this question is D. The wave has traveled 97.2 cm in 1 second.

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave, which is in this case 3 hertz, represents the number of waves that go through a point during 1 second. According to this, if the frequency of the wave is 3 hertz this means in 1 second there were 3 waves. Moreover, if you multiply the wavelength (32.4cm) by the frequency (3) you will know the distance the wave traveled in 1 second: 32.4 x 3 =  97.2 cm. This makes option D the correct one as the distance in 1 second was 97.2 cm.

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

acceleraions 5.76g and 20.55g

Explanation:

This constant acceleration exercise can be solved using the kinematic equations in one dimension

    Vf = Vo + a t

As part of the rest Vo = 0

    a = Vf / t

    a = 282/5

    a = 56.4 m / s2

In relation to the acceleration of gravity

    a ’= a / g = 56.4 / 9.8

    a ’= 5.76g

To calculate the acceleration to stop we use the same formula

     a2 = 282 / 1.40

     a2 = 201.4 m / s2

 This acceleration of gravity acceleration function is

     a2 ’= 201.4 / 9.8

     a2 ’= 20.55g

A reaction taking place in a container with a piston-cylinder assembly at constant temperature produces a gas, and the volume in
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

60.4 J

Explanation:

The work done by the gas is given by:

W=p(V_f-V_i)

where

p is the gas pressure

V_f is the final volume of the gas

V_i is the initial volume

We must convert all the quantities into SI units:

p=860 torr \cdot \frac{1.013\cdot 10^5 pa}{760 torr}=1.146\cdot 10^5 Pa

V_i = 127 mL = 0.127 L = 0.127 dm^3 = 0.127 \cdot 10^{-3}m^2

V_f = 654 mL = 0.654 L = 0.654 dm^3 = 0.654 \cdot 10^{-3}m^2

So the work done is

W=(1.146\cdot 10^5 Pa)(0.654\cdot 10^{-3} m^3-0.127\cdot 10^{-3} m^3)=60.4 J
