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.

A baseball is hit high and far. Which of the following statements is true? At the highest point,
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

When the baseball is hit high and far it has some horizontal velocity at the highest point so option an i.e. velocity at the highest point is eliminated.

the baseball act as a projectile at the highest point so, there is always downward acceleration acting on the body. so, option e and d is eliminated.

At the highest point, the vertical velocity is zero and neglecting the air resistance we can say that the velocity of the body is slowest.

Hence, the correct answer is option C

An electromagnet is created using a battery, an insulated copper wire and an iron nail. The wire is wrapped around the nail 30 t
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

If one assume that each turn is like a strand of electromagnet, which can then be added up. Therefore, increase in the number of turns will yield to increase in the magnetic strength. Also if the current increases, then there will be increase in the magnetic field strength.

From Ohm's law

V = IR

I = V/R

That is a direct increase in voltage will lead to increase in current.

Increase the voltage of the battery and increases the number of turns of the coil. Will suit the situation
