On a hypothetical scale X The ice point is 40° and steam point is 120°.
arlik [135]

Answer:

The reading of Y is -10°.

Explanation:

For scale X, the ice point is 40° and steam point is 120°.

Difference between the two extremes for scales X = 120 - 40 = 80

For scale X, the ice point and steam points are -30° and 130° respectively.

Difference between the two extremes for scales X = 130 - (-30) = 160

Comparing both scales:

One unit of scale X = x

One unit of scale Y = y

Scale X has 80 divisions while scale Y has 160

80x = 160y

x = 2y

50° in scale X = 10x + ice point in X scale

10 divisions in Y scale = 20y

Reading of Y scale = ice point of Y + 20y

= -30° + 20°

= -10°

Two spheres are made of wood - the first is a variety of wood whose density is equal to that of water, while the second is of a
ki77a [65]

Answer:

The buoyant force experienced by a body is equal to product of unit weight of liguid in which the the objevt is immersed and the volume of liquid replaced by the object.

In the given scenario, bothe the spheres have equal volume and are fully submerged in water. Therefore, the buoyant force experienced by both the spheres will be equal.

Walt ran 5 km in 25 minutes going east to what was his average velocity
goldenfox [79]

distance d = 5 km = 5 x 1000 m = 5000 m

time taken = 25 minute = 25 x 60 sec = 1500 sec

average velocity V = d/t

V = 5000/1500

V = 3.33 m/s towards east
