Specific gravity = Density of an object/Density of water


Density = Mass/Volume


For the current scenario;


Density of halite = mass/(l*w*h) = 58.75/(3.18*3.06*2.79) = 58.75/27.148932 = 2.164 g/cm^3


Density of water ≈ 1000 kg/m^3 = 1 g/cm^3

For the current scenario;

Density of water ≈ 1000 kg/m^3 = 1 g/cm^3

Therefore,
Specific density of halite = 2.164 g/cm^3 / 1 g/cm^3 = 2.164

A mixed cost contains Select one:
-Dominant- [34]

A mixed cost contains a variable element and a fixed element.

Option a

<u>Explanation:</u>

Mixed costs are those costs that has both variable and fixed component. Example: operating cost of a machinery includes fixed costs that cannot be changed with other variable costs like fuel, insurance, depreciation, etc.

It is also named as semi-variable costs. And the formula to calculate mixed cost is as follows,

y=a+b x

where,

  • y is the "total cost "
  • a is the "fixed cost per period"
  • b is the "variable rate per unit of activity"
  • x is the "number of units of activity"

how do Swati and Banks adjust their body position during a skydiving jump so they can fall at the same rate
professor190 [17]

While skydiving, its not just freely falling under Earth's gravity. Additional force called drag acts against the gravity which slows down the rate of fall. Drag is caused by the air molecules which pushes against the body as it falls through them. This is actually a significant amount of force which slows down the rate of fall of the body. Drag depends on the contact surface area and weight. More the surface area in contact, more would be the drag. The sitting position of the skydiver would experience less drag than the chest down position because of the less contact surface area of the body with the air molecules while in the former case. No two persons have identical body shape and weight. Hence, the rate of fall can be made nearly equal but not exactly equal. This is would be possible when they are having same body position.
