It is so easy because water is slippery, right? that makes your hands clean. Also, it might because your soles of your shoes are not strong

A barge ﬂoating in fresh water (p = 1000 kg/m3) is shaped like a hollow rectangular prism with base area A = 550 m2 and height H

Karolina [17]

Answer:

a) $\Delta m = 330000\,kg$ , b) $h = 1.268\,m$

Explanation:

a) According the Archimedes' Principle, the buoyancy force is equal to the displaced weight of surrounding liquid. The mass of the coal in the barge is:

$\Delta m \cdot g = \rho_{w}\cdot g \cdot \Delta V$

$\Delta m = \rho_{w}\cdot \Delta V$

$\Delta m = \left(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} \right)\cdot (550\,m^{2})\cdot (1.05\,m-0.45\,m)$

$\Delta m = 330000\,kg$

b) The submersion height is found by using the equation derived previously:

$\Delta m = \rho_{w}\cdot \Delta V$

$450000\,kg = \left(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}\right)\cdot (550\,m^{2})\cdot (h-0.45\,m)$

The final submersion height is:

$h = 1.268\,m$

A shopper weighs 4.00 kg of apples on a supermarket scale whose spring obeys Hooke's law and notes that the spring stretches a d

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

a) 0.040625 m

b) 5.02272 J

Explanation:

k = Spring constant

x = Stretched length

F = Force

a)

$F=kx\\\Rightarrow k=\frac{F}{x}\\\Rightarrow k=\frac{4\times 9.81}{0.025}\\\Rightarrow k=1569.6\ N/m$

$F=kx\\\Rightarrow x=\frac{F}{k}\\\Rightarrow x=\frac{6.5\times 9.81}{1569.6}\\\Rightarrow x=0.040625\ m$

Extension of the spring would be 0.040625 m

b) Work done in a spring

$W=\frac{1}{2}kx^2\\\Rightarrow W=\frac{1}{2}\times 1569.6\times 0.08^2\\\Rightarrow W=5.02272\ J$

The work done by the shopper to stretch this spring a total distance of 8.00 cm is 5.02272 J
