The mass of the particles that a river can transport is proportional to the sixth power of the speed of the river. A certain riv

er normally flows at a speed of 1 meter per second. What must its speed be in order to transport the particles that are twice as massive as usual?

Answer:

1.122 m/s

Explanation:

So usually a river with a speed of 1 meters per second can transport particle that weighs:

1^6 = 1 kg

If the particle is twice as massive as usual, then its weights would be 1 * 2 = 2kg

This means the river must be flowing at a speed of

2^{\frac{1}{6}} = 1.122 m/s

Answer:

The acceleration due to gravity at Pluto is 0.0597 m/s^2.

Explanation:

Length, L = 1 m

10 oscillations in 257 seconds

Time period, T = 257/10 = 25.7 s

Let the acceleration due to gravity is g.

Use the formula of time period of simple pendulum

T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}\\\\25.7 = 2 \times 31.4\sqrt{\frac{1}{g}}\\\\g = 0.0597 m/s^2

Answer:

See below ~

Explanation:

An object will sink in water when its density is greater than that of water, which is 1 g/cm³.

Volume of the box is <u>1331 cm³</u>. (11³)

Maximum mass of sand will be 1331 g. [because 1331/1331 = 1 g/cm³]

  • Volume of sand = Mass of sand / Density of sand
  • Volume (sand) = 1331/3.5
  • Volume (sand) = 380.29 cm³

If the volume of sand is <u>greater than 380.29 cm³</u>, the box will sink in water.

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

Student c's belief is fulfilled only for the movement of the earth with respect to the sun. But it has no validity or does not exist when it is necessary to explain other physical phenomena with respect to other satellites. For example, how would you explain the phases of the moon, if the Earth is located in the center of the Galaxy?, another serious question regarding the observations made by scientists millions of years ago, where they observed that the distances of the Earth from other planets were changing, with respect to time. If the Earth was in the center, all the planets and the sun would revolve around it preserving a constant distance (radius), at all times.

Other phenomena to explain would be the seasons on Earth, these are due to the axis of inclination of the Earth and the rotation of it around the sun.
