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

A jet airliner moving initially at 889 mph
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

1500 mph

Explanation:

Take east to be +x and north to be +y.

The x component of the velocity is:

vₓ = 889 cos 0° + 830 cos 59°

vₓ = 1316.5 mph

The y component of the velocity is:

vᵧ = 889 sin 0° + 830 sin 59°

vᵧ = 711.4 mph

The speed is found with Pythagorean theorem:

v² = vₓ² + vᵧ²

v² = (1316.5 mph)² + (711.4 mph)²

v = 1496 mph

Rounded to two significant figures, the jet's speed relative to the ground is 1500 mph.

A person of mass 55 kg swings on a rope length 4 m from rest (when the rope makes an angle of 30 degrees with the vertical) and
vovangra [49]

Answer:

θ = 19.66°

Explanation:

To determine the angle that the rope makes with the vertical for the two people, you first take into account the potential energy of the first person before he swings on the rope:

U=mgh

h: distance to the ground

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

m: mass of the first person = 55 kg

In the image attache below you can notice that the height h is:

h=4-4cos(30\°)=0.53m

Then, the potential energy is:

U=(55kg)(9.8m/s^2)(0.53m)=285.67J

When the first person picks up the second person (when the rope is exactly vertical), all the potential energy becomes kinetic energy. Next, when both people reaches the maximum height h' the energy must be equal to the initial potential energy of the first person:

U'=(m_1+m_2)gh'=285.67\ J

From the previous equation you can get h':

h'=\frac{285.67J}{(55kg+70kg)(9.8m/s^2)}=0.2332m

Finally, you obtain the angle between the rope at the height h,' and the vertical, by calculating the following:

h'=4-4cos(\theta)\\\\\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac{4-h'}{4})=cos^{-1}(\frac{4-0.2332}{4})=19.66\°

hence, the angle between the rope and the vertical, when the two people are in the rope is 19.66°

eduard

Answer:

D quadruple

Explanation:

E = \frac{1}{2}mv^2\\E'=\frac{1}{2}m(2v)^2=\frac{1}{2}m4 v^2 = 4(\frac{1}{2}mv^2)=4E

Confidence intervals for the population mean μ and population proportion p _____ as the size of the sample increases.
Masja [62]

Answer:

becomes narrower

Explanation:

Confidence intervals for the population mean μ and population proportion p becomes narrower as the size of the sample increases.

As,the sample size increases,standard error decreases,so margin of error decreases and hence width of CI decreases.
