A commonly used unit of mass in the English system is the pound-mass, abbreviated lbm, where 1 lbm = 0.454 kg. What is the densi

ty of glycerine in pound-mass per cubic foot? (Assume the density of glycerine is 1.26 ✕ 103 kg/m3.)

Answer: The density of glycerine will be 0.028lbm/foot^3

Explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

Density=\frac{mass}{Volume}

Given:

Density of glycerine= 1.26\times 10^3kg/m^3

1 lbm = 0.454 kg

1 kg =\frac{1}{0.454}=2.2lbm

Thus 0.454kg=\frac{2.2}{1}\times 0.454=0.99

Also 1m^3=35.3147foot^3

Putting in the values we get:

Density=\frac{0.99lbm}{35.3147}=0.028lbm/foot^3

Thus density of glycerine will be 0.028lbm/foot^3

A clam of mass 0.12 kg dropped by a seagull takes 3.0 s to hit the ground. [Neglect friction.]
inna [77]
This is a defective, misleading question, and should never be asked in a Physics class.

There is no such thing as the force due to the impact.

If you know how long it takes the clam to stop once it begins to hit the dirt,
then you can calculate the impulse transferred to it, and tease a force out
of that.  But the question doesn't give us the time. 

It depends on the material of the surface.  Was the clam dropped onto dirt ? 
Into a dumpster ?  Onto grass ?  Concrete ?  Styrofoam ?  Mud ?  The answer
is different in each case, and we still need to know the short length of time
AFTER it first encountered whatever surface brought it to rest.

I would kick this question back to the Physics teacher.  It's meaningless,
and the longer you try to work on it, the more nonsense you'll plant into
your head that'll need to be dug out later.

ear the end of a marathon race, the first two runners are separated by a distance of 45.0 m. The front runner has a velocity of
sesenic [268]

Answer:

a) V_{2/1}=0.8m/s

b) The second runner will win

c) d = 10.54m

Explanation:

For part (a):

V_{2/1} = V_{2} - V_{1} = 0.8m/s

For part (b) we will calculate the amount of time that takes both runners to cross the finish line:

t_{1} = \frac{X_{1}}{V_{1}}=\frac{250}{3.45}=72.46s

t_{2} = \frac{X_{2}}{V_{2}}=\frac{250+45}{4.25}=69.41s

Since it takes less time to the second runner to cross the finish line, we can say the she won the race.

For part (c), we know how much time it takes the second runner to win, so we just need the position of the first runner in that moment:

X1 = V1*t2 = 239.46m  Since the finish line was 250m away:

d = 250m - 239.46m = 10.54m
