A cylindrical rod of length 1 m and radius 1 cm is submerged in water. The rod has a non-uniform mass distribution such that one

half of the rod is much more massive than the other half. At which point in the rod can the buoyant force be considered to be acting?
A) at the rod's geometrical center

B) two of the given choices are correct

C) none of these

D) at the rod's center of mass

E) at the rod's center of gravity

Answer:

A) at the rod's geometrical center

Explanation:

Let us assume that the rod is replaced by water. And now this water volume is in translational and in rotational equilibrium.

Therefore, a net upward force must have been exerted by the surrounding liquid which acts at the center of mass of the water volume.

This force determines through the geometric center of the column of the cylindrical water  

Moreover, the force is also independent of submerged body into it

Hence, the first option is correct

Calculate the percent composition by mass of the following compounds that are important starting materials for synthetic polymer
notsponge [240]

Answer:

C₃H₄O₂ → 50% C; 5.5 % H; 44.5% O

C₄H₆O₂ → 56 % of C; 7 % of H; 37% of O

C₃H₃N → 68 % of C; 6 % of H; 26 % of N

Explanation:

We determine the molar mass of each compound:

C₃H₄O₂ → 72 g/mol

In 1 mol of acrylic acid (72 g), we have:

3 moles of C → 12 g/mol . 3 mol = 36 g of C

4 moles of H → 1 g/mol . 4 mol = 4 g of H

2 moles of O → 16g/mol . 2 mol = 32 g of O

Then in 100 g of salt, we may have:

100 . 36 / 72 = 50 % of C

4 . 100 / 72 = 5.5 % of H

32 . 100 / 72 = 44.5 % of O

C₄H₆O₂ → 86 g/mol

In 1 mol of methyl acrylate (86 g), we have:

4 moles of C → 12 g/mol . 4 mol = 48 g of C

6 moles of H → 1 g/mol . 6 mol = 6 g of H

2 moles of O → 16g/mol . 2 mol = 32 g of O

Then in 100 g of salt, we may have:

100 . 48 / 86 = 56 % of C

6 . 100 / 86 = 7 % of H

32 . 100 / 86 = 37 % of O

C₃H₃N → 53 g/mol

In 1 mol of acrylonitrile (53 g), we have:

3 moles of C → 12 g/mol . 3 mol = 36 g of C

3 moles of H → 1 g/mol . 3 mol = 3 g of H

1 mol of N → 14g/mol . 1 mol = 14 g of N

Then in 100 g of salt, we may have:

100 . 36 / 53 = 68 % of C

3 . 100 / 53 = 6 % of H

14 . 100 / 53 = 26 % of N
