We are given volume of gasoline = 15.58 L and

Density = 0.74 g/mL.

Density is given in grams(g) per milliliter (mL). So, we need to convert given volume in mL also.

We know, 1 litre = 1000 milliliters

Therefore, 15.58 L = 15.58 * 1000 mL = 15580 mL

We could rewrite,

Volume of gasoline = 15580 mL.

Formula for density is..

Density (ρ)= $\frac{Mass}{ Volume}$

Plugging values in formula,

0.74 g/mL = $\frac{Mass}{15580 \ mL}$

Muliplying both sides by 15580.

$0.74 g/mL * 15580mL =\frac{Mass}{15580 \ mL} * 15580mL$

11529.2g = mass.

Therefore, 11529.2g grams does 15.58 L of gasoline weigh.

Answer:

C. Each capacitor carries the same amount of charge.

Explanation:

When two or more different capacitors are connected in series across a potential source, each capacitor carries the same amount of charge.

In a series connected capacitor, sane amount of charge flows through the capacitors while different potential difference is passed across them.

The capacitors have the same charge as the charge flowing out directly from the potential source called emf since the emf is the driving force of charge in a circuit.

A motor uses motion in a magnetic field to produce an electric current. true or false

irinina [24]

Well, that's a nice, concise description, but it applies to a
generator, not a motor. A motor does exactly the opposite.
It uses an electric current to produce motion in a magnetic field.

Sadly, the statement is false.

A 0.400-kg object is swung in a circular path and in a vertical plane on a 0.500-m-length string. If the angular speed at the bo

Talja [164]

Answer:

T = 16.72 N

Explanation:

When the object is swung in a circular path, and in a vertical plane, there are two forces external to the object acting on it at any time: the gravity (which is always downward) and the tension in the string (which always points towards the center of the circle).

At the bottom of the circle, the tension is directly upward, so these two forces, are opposite each other, and the difference between them is the centripetal force , which at this point, keeps the object swinging in a circle.

This is the point of the trajectory where T is maximum.

We can apply Newton's 2nd Law, choosing an axis vertical (y-axis) being the upward direction the positive one, as follows:

T- m*g = m*a

The acceleration, at the bottom of the circle, is only normal (as there are no forces in the horizontal direction) , and is equal to the centripetal acceleration, as follows:

ac = v² / r = ω²*r⇒ T- m*g = m*ω²*r

Replacing by the givens, we can solve for T as follows:

T = m* (ω²*r+g) = 0.4 kg*((8.00)² rad/sec²*0.5m)+9.8 m/s²) = 16.72 N
