A fish maintains its depth in fresh water by adjusting the air content of porous bone or air sacs to make its average density th

e same as that of the water. Suppose that with its air sacs collapsed, a fish has a density of 1.05 g/cm3. To what fraction of its expanded body volume must the fish inflate the air sacs to reduce its density to that of water?

Answer:

V’/V= 1.05  

Explanation:

The density is defined with the ratio of the mass to the volume, for the fish with the collapsed sack

         ρ₁ = m / V

The density of the fish with the bag full of air is

         ρ₂ = m / V’

For the fish to float if it exerts its density must be exactly equal to that of the surrounding water

We clear the mass  and match

          m = ρ1 V = ρ2 V'        

          ρ₁ V = ρ₂ V’

         V ’/ V = ​​ρ₁ / ρ₂

         V ’/ V = ​​1.05 / 1

        V ’= 1.05 V

This is that the fish should increase its volume by 5%

The greatest height reported for a jump into an airbag is 99.4 m by stuntman Dan Koko. In 1948 he jumped from rest from the top
leva [86]

Answer:

44.1613858478 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 0

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement = 99.4

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² = a

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 99.4+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=44.1613858478\ m/s

If air resistance was absent Dan Koko would strike the airbag at 44.1613858478 m/s

2. A rock is dropped off a bridge. How fast is the rock
zhenek [66]

Answer:

a) The velocity of rock at 1 second, v = 9.8 m/s

b) The velocity of rock at 3 second,  v = 29.4 m/s

c) The velocity of rock at 5.5 second,  v = 53.9 m/s

Explanation:

Given data,

The rock is dropped from a bridge.

The initial velocity of the rock, u = 0

a) The velocity of rock at 1 second,

   Using the first equation of motion

                         v = u + gt

                         v = 0 + 9.8 x 1

                          v = 9.8 m/s

b) The velocity of rock at 3 second,

                         v = u + gt

                         v = 0 + 9.8 x 3

                          v = 29.4 m/s

c) The velocity of rock at 5.5 second,

                         v = u + gt

                         v = 0 + 9.8 x 5.5

                         v = 53.9 m/s

What is the coldest place on earth
exis [7]

The continent of Antartica is located at the bottom of the world. the South Pole is at its center. Antarctica is the coldest and windiest place on earth. It is covered with ice up to 3 miles thick. Very few plants and animals can survive here, but penguins, fish, and seals live on the coast and in the seas. No people live on Antarctica permanently, but scientists and tourists visit.
