Answer: 7022.2kg/m³, yes, I was cheated

Explanation:

Density of an object is defined as the ratio of the mass of the object to its volume. Mathematically;

Density = Mass/Volume

Note that the unit of both mass and volume must be standard unit.

Given mass = 0.0158kg

Dimension of the metal = 5mm×15mm×30mm

Note that 1mm = 0.001m

The volume of the metal will be

0.005×0.015×0.03

= 0.00000225m³

Density = 0.0158/0.00000225

Average density of the metal = 7022.2kg/m³

Since the standard density of Gold is 19,320kg/m³ and is higher than the density prescribed for me, it shows the I was cheated.

You have about 10 quarts of blood in your body. At REST your heart pumps about 5 quarts each minutes. That is half of your blood
Zina [86]

Answer:

8 times

Explanation:

Given that You have about 10 quarts of blood in your body. At REST your heart pumps about 5 quarts each minutes.

That means the heart will pump 10 quarts in 2 minutes.

That is half of your blood volume per minute.

If during exercise it can pump 40 quarts per minute, that is, 80 quarts in 2 minutes.

To know how many times does all of your blood complete the cycle around your body during exercise, you must divide 80 quarts by 10 quarts. That is,

80 / 10 = 8

Therefore, your blood complete the cycle around your body 8 times during the exercise.

A large helium filled balloon is used as the center piece for a graduation party. The balloon alone has a mass of 222 kg and it
inn [45]

Answer:

The buoyant force is 3778.8 N in upward.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of balloon = 222 Kg

Volume = 328 m³

Density of air = 1.20 kg/m³

Density of helium = 0.179 kg/m³

We need to calculate the buoyant force acting

Using formula of buoyant force

F_{b}=\rho_{air}\times V_{b}\times g

Where, \rho_{air} = density of air

V = Volume of balloon

g = acceleration due to gravity

Put the value into the formula

F_{b}=1.20\times321\times9.81

F_{b}=3778.8\ N

This buoyant force is in upward direction.

Hence, The buoyant force is 3778.8 N in upward.

A stone is dropped from a tower 100 meters above the ground. The stone falls past ground level and into a well. It hits the wate
Elan Coil [88]
Make the base of the building zero. Then the initial distance is 100m, final distance unknown x. Use gravity, time and initial velocity to solve for final distance.
x - 100 = (0)(5) +(1/2)(-9.81)(5^2)
x - 100 = 0 - 122.625
x = -122.625 + 100
x = -22.625 m below ground
