A wooden cylinder of length L and cross-sectional area A is partially submerged in a liquid with the axis of the cylinder orient

ed straight up and down. The density of the liquid is rhoL. If the length of the cylinder that is below the surface of the liquid is d, what is the buoyant force that the liquid exerts on the cylinder? (Ignore the small buoyant force exerted by the air on the part of the cylinder above the surface of the liquid.)

Answer:

F=\rho_LAdg

Explanation:

The buoyant force F is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. The weight of the displaced fluid is W=m_dg, where m_d is the mass of the displaced fluid. The mass of the displaced fluid is m_d=\rho_LV_d, where \rho_L is the density of the fluid and V_d is the displaced volume, which is equal to the submerged volume of the cilinder V_d=V_s=Ad.

Putting all together we have:

F=W=m_dg=\rho_LV_dg=\rho_LAdg

A wire of cross-sectional area 5.00 106 m2 has a resistance of 1.75 O. What is the resistance of a wire of the same material and
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

the resistance of the second wire is 1 ohm.

Explanation:

Given;

cross sectional area of the first wire, A₁ = 5.00 x 10⁶ m²

resistance of the first wire, R₁ = 1.75 ohms

cross sectional area of the second wire, A₂ = 8.75 x 10⁶ m²

resistance of the second wire, R₂ = ?

The resistance of a wire is given as;

R ∝ \frac{L}{A}

Since the length of the two wires is constant

R₁A₁ = R₂A₂

R_2 = \frac{R_1A_1}{A_2} \\\\R_2 = \frac{1.75\  \times \ 5.00\times 10^6}{8.75\times 10^6} \\\\R_2 = 1 \ ohm

Therefore, the resistance of the second wire is 1 ohm.

The earth's radius is 6.37×106m; it rotates once every 24 hours.What is the speed of a point on the earth's surface located at 3
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

v = 120 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

earth's radius; r = 6.37 × 10^(6) m

Angular speed; ω = 2π/(24 × 3600) = 7.27 × 10^(-5) rad/s

Now, we want to find the speed of a point on the earth's surface located at 3/4 of the length of the arc between the equator and the pole, measured from equator.

The angle will be;

θ = ¾ × 90

θ = 67.5

¾ is multiplied by 90° because the angular distance from the pole is 90 degrees.

The speed of a point on the earth's surface located at 3/4 of the length of the arc between the equator and the pole, measured from equator will be:

v = r(cos θ) × ω

v = 6.37 × 10^(6) × cos 67.5 × 7.27 × 10^(-5)

v = 117.22 m/s

Approximation to 2 sig. figures gives;

v = 120 m/s

Write at least 4 to 5 sentences on the different measurements that helped to calculate the speed of light. There are 3 specific
iren [92.7K]
The first experiment that was made to attempt to measure the speed of light involved detonating gunpowder by Isaac Beeckman. He declared that his experiment was inconclusive. Galileo also tried to measure the speed of light using two lanterns placed across each other. The next experiment involved planets where Ole Romer based his calculation on its movements. The final calculations were derived from different theories by different scientists including Maxwell until it ended up with the exact value for the speed of light.

Annie has a soccer ball and a cake ball she kicks each ball with the same Force the soccer ball accelerates at 3 m per second sq
lana [24]
Answer: The acceleration will be greater in the kickball than the soccer ball since the kick ball has a smaller mass and provided they are acted upon with equal force magnitude.

Explanation:

We can prove this by substituting with numerical values.

Say the force she kicked both balls with was 30 N. The mass of the soccer ball is 10kg and the mass of the kickball is 6kg.

Applying Newtons Second Law, F = ma

For the soccer ball:

30 = 10a
a = 30/10
a = 3

For the kickball:

30 = 6a
a = 30/6
a = 5

Hence the kickball will travel with a greater acceleration given the same force is acted upon and has a smaller mass than the soccer ball

Hope this helps, brainliest would be appreciated :)
