Answer:
Explanation:
For sound waves we have v=d/t where v is the speed of sound and d the distance between the astronauts, while for electromagnetic waves we have c=D/t where c is the speed of light and D the distance between the spaceship and Earth. <em>We have written both times as the same</em> because is what is imposed by the problem, so we have t=d/v=D/c, which means:
And for our values:
S.G. or specific gravity is the ratio of the density of an object to a fluid. It also is the fraction of the object's volume that would be submerged if the object were placed in the fluid. (note: if S.G.>1, the object will sink)
S.G. = density(wood) / density(water)
2/3 = density(wood) / 1000
density(wood) = 2000/3 kg/m^3 = ~666.67 kg/m^3
S.G. = density(wood) / density(oil)
9/10 = 2000/3 / density(oil)
density(oil) = 2000/3 / 9/10 = 20000/27 kg/m^3 = ~740.74 kg/m^3
Answer:
Explanation:
F = ma
mgsinθ - μmgcosθ = ma
gsinθ - μgcosθ = a
μgcosθ = gsinθ - a
μ = (gsinθ - a) / gcosθ
μ = (9.81sin24 - 0.245) / 9.81cos24
μ = 0.4178906...
μ = 0.418
