Answer:

3333.33 kg/m³

Explanation:

Density: This can be defined as the ratio of the mass of a body to its volume.

The unit of density is kg/m³.

From Archimedes principle,

R.d = W/U = D/D'

Where R.d = relative density, W = weight of the object in air, u = upthrust in water, D = Density of the object, D' = Density of water.

W/U = D/D'

making D the subject of the equation

D = D'(W/U).......................... Equation 1

Given: W = 5.0 N, U = 5.0 -3.5 = 1.5 N, D' = 1000 kg/m³

Note: U = lost in weight = weight in air - weight in water

Substitute into equation 1

D = 1000(5/1.5)

D = 3333.33 kg/m³

Thus the density of the object = 3333.33 kg/m³

Christian made 1000 pancakes.

Explanation:

Let us represent the total amount of Pancake made by Christian as = K

    From the problem;

 Christian ate \frac{3}{5} of the pancake in the morning =  \frac{3}{5}  * K =  \frac{3}{5} K

We know that Christian cannot eat her pancake and at the same time have it, the  remaining pancake will then be:

        total amount of cake - fraction eaten

Remainder = K -  \frac{3}{5} K=  \frac{2}{5} K

   

In the afternoon, we know that she ate 1/4 of the remaining cake:

        \frac{1}{5} K*  \frac{2}{5} K = \frac{1}{10} K

 The remaining cake in the afternoon will be:

    Total amount of cake remaining from morning - amount eaten in the afternoon

    =    \frac{2}{5} K -  \frac{1}{10} K

    =    \frac{3}{10} K

The fraction of the cake remaining in the afternoon is  \frac{3}{10} K

Since she had 300cakes left in the afternoon, then :

            \frac{3}{10} K= 300

                    K = 1000 pancakes

Therefore Christian made 1000 pancakes.

Which object has the least momentum? object a: m = 1 kg, v = 100 m/s object b: m = 10 kg, v = 12 m/s object c: m = 0.5 kg, v = 1
nirvana33 [79]
A = 1*100 = 100 Ns
b = 10 * 12 = 120 Ns
c = 0.5*1000 = 500 Ns
d = 100 * 2 = 200 Ns
