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

An object with a mass of 2.0 kg is accelerated at 5.0 m/s/s. the net force acting on the mass is
Vitek1552 [10]
First we need to know the equation:
F= Mass times acceleration
F = 2.0 kg times 5.0 m/s^2 
multiply them to get the net force!
F= 10 N 
N is newton

Answer:

mgh₁ + ½mv₁² = mgh₂ + ½mv₂²

Explanation:

Initial total energy = final total energy

PE₁ + KE₁ = PE₂ + KE₂

The velocity time graph of a car shown below a) Calculate the magnitude of displacement of the car in 40 seconds. b) During whic
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

a) 0 metres

b) From time 0 s to 10 s , the car was accelerated. Its velocity accelerated from 0m/s to 20 m/s

c) 20 m/s

Explanation:

a) <em>Formula of displacement= velocity x time</em>

time=40 s

velocity =0 m/s

∴ displacement= 0 x 40 = 0 m

Magnitude of displacement is 0 m

b) The increase in velocity shows that there has been acceleration.

c) The average velocity of the car is =\frac{0+40}{2\\}   {initial velocity + final velocity}

                                                            =\frac{40}{2}

                                                             =20

Therefore, the magnitude of the average velocity  of the car is 20 m/s

mash [69]

Answer:

4000 km

Explanation:

as we know velocity of electromagnetic wave is c

c = 3 * 10^8 m/s

frequency  given (f) = 76 Hz

wavelength ?

using

c =fλ

λ =   \frac{c}{f}

λ =  \frac{3 * 10^8}{76}  ≈4000 km

 so final answer λ = 4000km
