Answer:

2491.23 kg/m³

Explanation:

From Archimedes principle,

R.d = weight of object in air/ upthrust in water = density of the object/density of water

⇒ W/U = D/D' ....................... Equation 1

Where W = weight of the ceramic statue, U = upthrust of the ceramic statue in water, D = density of the ceramic statue, D' = density of water.

Making D the subject of the equation,

D = D'(W/U).................... Equation 2

Given: W = 28.4 N, U = lost in weight = weight in air- weight in water

U = 28.4 - 17.0 = 11.4 N,

Constant: D' = 1000 kg/m³.

Substitute into equation 2,

D = 100(28.4/11.4)

D = 2491.23 kg/m³

Hence the density of the ceramic statue = 2491.23 kg/m³

A 20 kilogram ball rolls down a 10 meter ramp at the rate of 15 meters per second. The kinetic energy is joules
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:2250J

Explanation:

mass(m)=20kg

velocity(v)=15m/s

Kinetic energy=(m x v^2)/2

Kinetic energy =(20 x 15^2)/2

Kinetic energy =(20x15x15)/2

Kinetic energy=4500/2

Kinetic energy=2250J

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS :) What does it mean when white light is diffracted and at a particular location the color seen is bl
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

This is because white light consists of 7 colours with different angles o deviation or retraction.

Explanation:

When a narrow beam of light is refracted by a prism the light spreads into a band of colours (called the spectrum of light )

But in this case if a blue colour is observed it is due to the angle of refraction ,for instance red is refracted the least and hence is seen

C'est quoi le lien entre l'atmosphere et les plantes?
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Les plantes produisent de l'oxygène et ont contribué à faire de la Terre une planète habitable. Grâce au processus de photosynthèse pendant la journée, les plantes absorbent le dioxyde de carbone de l'air, le convertissent en sucre et libèrent de l'oxygène dans l'atmosphère.

Les plantes consomment du dioxyde de carbone - un gaz à effet de serre important - au cours du processus de photosynthèse. La réduction du dioxyde de carbone dans l'atmosphère a un effet de refroidissement indirect. Les plantes refroidissent également l'atmosphère car elles libèrent de la vapeur d'eau lorsqu'elles deviennent chaudes, un processus similaire à la transpiration.

la température, l'humidité et l'intensité lumineuse autour de la plante; la concentration de dioxyde de carbone dans l'air autour des feuilles. La relation est inverse; autrement dit, à mesure que la concentration de CO2 augmente, le nombre de stomates produits diminue, et vice versa.

satela [25.4K]
<span>If the swimmer is swimming perpendicular to the current, it will take her 66m / 0.42 m/s = 157.14 seconds to cross the river. At the same time, the current will be taking her downstream at a rate of 0.32 m/s. So, when she reaches the opposite bank, her total downstream distance traveled will have been 0.32*157.14 = 50.28 meters.</span>

Suppose you are standing at the earth's geographic north magnetic pole, the place on the earth's surface that compasses point to
Brut [27]

Answer:

It would point up.

Explanation:

Since I am at the earth's geographic north magnetic pole, the place on the earth's surface that compasses point toward, the north pole of the compass would also point towards the earth's geographic north magnetic pole, since all other compasses point toward there.

Since the compass is free to swivel in any direction, the compass would point up, since it is at the earth's geographic north magnetic pole, the place on the earth's surface that compasses point toward.

So, the compass would point up.
