The buoyant force exerted by a liquid is equal to the weight of the fluid <span>displaced.</span>
To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to thermal expansion in a body for which the initial length, the coefficient of thermal expansion and the temperature change are related:
Where,
= Change in Length
= Coefficient of linear expansion
= Change in temperature
= Initial Length
Our values are:
Replacing we have,
Therefore the change in milimiters was 0.4126mm
Answer:
A) A warm wire
Explanation:
A warm wire has the most resistance. Heating the metal wire causes atoms to vibrate more, which in turn makes it more difficult for the electrons to flow, increasing resistance. Heating the wire increases resistivity.
Answer:
A. 1.71 m
B. 2.66 m
Explanation:
A. Determination of the height of the pier.
We'll begin by calculating the time taken for the ball to get to the water
This can be obtained as follow:
Horizontal velocity (u) = 1.27 m/s,
Horizontal distance (s) = 0.75 m
Time (t) =?
s = ut
0.75 = 1.27 × t
Divide both side by 1.27
t = 0.75 / 1.27
t = 0.59 s
Finally, we shall determine the height of the pier as follow:
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Time (t) = 0.59 s
Height of pier (h) =?
h = ½gt²
h = ½ × 9.8 × 0.59²
h = 4.9 × 0.3481
h = 1.71 m
Thus, the height of the pier is 1.71 m
B. Determination of the horizontal distance.
Horizontal velocity (u) = 4.50 m/s
Time (t) = 0.59 s
Horizontal distance (s) =?
s = ut
s = 4.5 × 0.59
s = 2.66 m
Thus, if the ball moved at a velocity of 4.50 m/s off the pier, it will land at a distance of 2.66 m from the end of the pier.
