An IGCSE student thinks it may be possible to identify different rocks (A, B and C) by measuring their

kherson [118]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

a. The volume in the first measuring cylinder reads 70 cm^3 while that of the second reads 95  cm^3. Hence;

V1 = 70  cm^3

V2 = 95  cm^3

b. <u>An object will always displace its own volume in a liquid</u>. Hence:

Volume V of the rock sample = V2 - V1

   = 95 - 70 = 25  cm^3

c. Mass of A = 102 g

   Volume of A = 25  cm^3

<em>Density = mass/volume</em>

Hence, density of A = 102/25 = 4.08 g/cm^3

Answer:

In a chemical reaction the total mass of all the substances taking part in the reaction remains the same. Also, the number of atoms in a reaction remains the same. Mass cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

What is the momentum of a 750kg car traculing at a velocity of 24m/s
m_a_m_a [10]
The answer is 18000 kgm/s

Momentum is mass times velocity so just do 750•24.

Answer:

Explanation:

The inclined plane

An inclined plane consists of a sloping surface; it is used for raising heavy bodies. The plane offers a mechanical advantage in that the force required to move an object up the incline is less than the weight being raised (discounting friction). The steeper the slope, or incline, the more nearly the required force approaches the actual weight. Expressed mathematically, the force F required to move a block D up an inclined plane without friction is equal to its weight W times the sine of the angle the inclined plane makes with the horizontal (θ). The equation is F = W sin θ.

The lever

A lever is a bar or board that rests on a support called a fulcrum. A downward force exerted on one end of the lever can be transferred and increased in an upward direction at the other end, allowing a small force to lift a heavy weight.

The wedge

A wedge is an object that tapers to a thin edge. Pushing the wedge in one direction creates a force in a sideways direction. It is usually made of metal or wood and is used for splitting, lifting, or tightening, as in securing a hammer head onto its handle.

The wheel and axle

A wheel and axle is made up of a circular frame (the wheel) that revolves on a shaft or rod (the axle). In its earliest form it was probably used for raising weights or water buckets from wells.

Its principle of operation is best explained by way of a device with a large gear and a small gear attached to the same shaft. The tendency of a force, F, applied at the radius R on the large gear to turn the shaft is sufficient to overcome the larger force W at the radius r on the small gear. The force amplification, or mechanical advantage, is equal to the ratio of the two forces (W:F) and also equal to the ratio of the radii of the two gears (R:r)
