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

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

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

The gas in a balloon has T=280 K and V=0.0279 m^3. if the temperature increases to 320 K at constant pressure, what is the new v
victus00 [196]

Answer:

0.0319 m³

Explanation:

Use ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

where P is pressure, V is volume, n is amount of gas, R is the gas constant, and T is temperature.

Since P, n, and R are held constant:

n₁ R / P₁ = n₂ R₂ / P₂

Which means:

V₁ / T₁ = V₂ / T₂

Plugging in:

0.0279 m³ / 280 K = V / 320 K

V = 0.0319 m³

You are standing 2.5m directly in front of one of the two loudspeakers. They are 3.0m apart and both are playing a 686Hz tone in
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

distance from speaker is 17.87 m

Explanation:

given data

distance from loudspeaker = 2.5 m

distance between loudspeaker = 3.0 m

room temperature = 20c

wavelength f  = 686Hz

to find out

what distances from the speaker

solution

we know sound velocity c = 331.5  + 0.6 × 20c = 343.5

so wavelength of sound  λ = c / f  

wavelength = 343.5 /  686 = 0.5 m

when the difference in distance of speaker destructive interference will be

d = λ/2 × (2n-1)

for n = 1, 2 3 4 ..

d = 0.5/2 × (2n-1)

d = 0.250 , 0.75 , 1.25 , 1.750............   for n = 1, 2 3 .............

so

for d = 0.250

side of triangle by hypotenuse of triangle are

\sqrt{3^{2}+(2..5+x)^{2} } - (2.5 + x1) = 0.250

0.5 x1 = 7.6875

x1 = 15.375 m

for d = 0.75

side of triangle by hypotenuse of triangle are

\sqrt{3^{2}+(2..5+x)^{2} } - (2.5 + x2) = 0.75

1.5 x2 = 4.6875

x2 = 3.125 m

for d = 1.250

side of triangle by hypotenuse of triangle are

\sqrt{3^{2}+(2..5+x)^{2} } - (2.5 + x3) = 1.250

2.5 x2 = 1.1875

x3 = 0.475 m

for d = 1.750

x4 will be negative so we stop here

so the distance from speaker here is given below

distance = 2.5 + x

here x = 0.475 , 3.125 and 15.375 so

distance 1 = 2.5 + 0.475  = 2.975 m

distance 2 = 2.5 + 3.125  = 5.625 m

distance 3 = 2.5 + 15.375 = 17.875 m

final distance from speaker is 17.87 m

2. A 0.8 kg tetherball hangs on the end of a cord. It is hit by a child and rises 2.1 m above the ground. a. What is the maximum
skad [1K]

Answer:

E = 16.464 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of tetherball, m = 0.8 kg

It is hit by a child and rises 2.1 m above the ground, h = 21. m

We need to find the maximum gravitational potential energy of the ball. The formula for the gravitational potential energy is given by :

E = mgh

g is acceleration due to gravity

E = 0.8 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 2.1 m

= 16.464 J

So, the maximum potential energy of the ball is 16.464 J.
