Answer:

Lead

Explanation:

To get the density of the material, the formula would be:

mass divided by volume which is given by $d = \frac { m } { v }$ .

Here in this problem, we are given a mass of $565 g$ which occupies a volume of $50 cm^3$ .

So plugging the data in the above formula to find the density:

Density = $\frac { 565 } { 50 } = 11.3$

From the table, we can see that the material is Lead which has a density of 11.3c/cm^3.

Suppose you are asked to find the amount of time t, in seconds, it takes for the turntable to reach its final rotational speed.

Annette [7]

Answer:

option (D)

Explanation:

Here initial rotation speed is given, final rotation speed is given and asking for time.

If we use

A) θ=θ0+ω0t+(1/2)αt2

For this equation, we don't have any information about the value of angular displacement and angular acceleration, so it is not useful.

B) ω=ω0+αt

For this equation, we don't have any information about angular acceleration, so it is not useful.

C) ω2=ω02+2α(θ−θ0)

In this equation, time is not included, so it is not useful.

D) So, more information is needed.

Thus, option (D) is true.

Why are we not able to see immediate after we enter a dark hall from a lighter place.

Kipish [7]

Technically this is a Biology question;

The 'amount' we can see depends on how much light can get through our pupil to hit our retina.
When there is a lot of light the pupil is small; it doesn't need to be big to let a lot of light in.
When we move to a dark space there is much less light, so the pupil 'dilates' to let enough light so we can see properly.
The period in which one cant see is simply when the pupil hasn't had time to change shape yet so doesn't let in enough light.

A finch rides on the back of a Galapagos tortoise, which walks at the stately pace of 0.060 m/s. After 1.1 minutes, the finch ti

Romashka [77]

Answer:

Average Speed = 6.37 m/s

Explanation:

The average speed is simply given by the following formula:

Average Speed = Total Distance Traveled/Total Time Spent

here,

Total Time Spent = 1.1 min + 1.5 min = (2.6 min)(60 s/min) = 156 s

Now, for total distance, we have to calculate the distance traveled on tortoise and distance traveled while flying, separately. Therefore,

Distance Traveled on Tortoise = (Time spent on Tortoise)(Speed of Tortoise)

Distance Traveled on Tortoise = (1.1 min)(60 s/min)(0.06 m/s) = 3.96 m

Similarly,

Flying Distance = (Flying Time)(Flying Speed) = (1.5 min)(60 s/min)(11 m/s)

Flying Distance = 990 m

Since, total distance is the sum of both distances, therefore,

Total Distance = 3.96 m + 990 m = 993.96 m

Now, using the values in equation of average speed, we get:

Average Speed = 993.96 m/156 s

Average Speed = 6.37 m/s

A cyclist travels 1850 m north and then 1200 m south. Find both the distance it has traveled and the magnitude of its displaceme

finlep [7]

Answer:

The distance it has traveled is 3,050 m and the magnitude of its displacement is 650 m north.

Explanation:

Distance refers to the length between any two points in space, while displacement refers to the distance from a start position to an end position regardless of the path.

In other words, distance refers to how much space an object travels during its movement; is the quantity moved. It is also said to be the sum of the distances traveled. The distance traveled by a mobile is the length of its trajectory and it is a scalar quantity. In this case, the distance is calculated as:

1850 m + 1200 m= 3,050 m

Displacement refers to the distance and direction of the final position from the initial position of an object. The displacement effected is a vector quantity. The vector representing the displacement has its origin in the initial position, its end in the final position, and its module is the distance in a straight line between the initial and final positions. That is, when expressing the displacement it is done in terms of the magnitude with its respective unit of measurement and the direction because the displacement is a vector type quantity. Mathematically, the displacement (Δd) is calculated as:

Δd= df - di

where df is the final position and di is the initial position of the object.

In this case, the displacement is calculated as:

1850 m - 1200 m= 650 m

Since the distance to the north is greater, the direction of travel will be to the north.

The distance it has traveled is 3,050 m and the magnitude of its displacement is 650 m north.
