Answer:

density of water is much greater than density of air

Explanation:

when body is in fluid it carries weight which is always equal to upthrust

upthrust is given as

upthrust= density of fluid ×strength of gravitational field g × volume of body in fluid

as volume of ship and aeroplane is same and strength of gravitational field or acceleration due to gravity is same hence upthrust depens upon density of fluid .

density of air is about 1.2 kg/m^3 and density of water is 1000kg/m^3 hence ship carries more load

In the first-order spectrum, maxima for two different wavelengths are separated on the screen by 3.40 mm . what is the differenc

Strike441 [17]

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

Given:

diffraction grating slits = 900 slits per centimeter

interference pattern that is observed on a screen from the grating = 2.38m

maxima for two different wavelengths = 3.40mm

slit separation .. d = 1/900cm = 1.11^-3cm = 1.111^-5 m <span>

Whenas n = 1, maxima (grating equation) sinθ = λ/d
Grant distance of each maxima from centre = y ..
<span>As sinθ ≈ y/D y/D = λ/d λ = yd / D </span>

∆λ = (λ2 - λ1) = y2.d/D - y1.d/D
∆λ = (d/D) [y2 -y1]

<span>∆λ = 1.111^-5m x [3.40^-3m] / 2.38m .. .. ►∆λ = 1.587^-8 m</span></span>

A cannon is fired with an initial horizontal velocity of 20 m/s and initial vertical velocity of 25 m/s. After 3s in the air, th

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

60 m

Explanation:

After 3 seconds of travel at 20 m/s, the projectile is 3·20 = 60 meters horizontally from the cannon.

__

The vertical height after 3 seconds is 0.9 m, so the straight-line distance from cannon to target is √(60^2 +0.9^2) ≈ 60.007 meters.

The mass of the particles that a river can transport is proportional to the sixth power of the speed of the river. A certain riv

kow [346]

Answer:

1.122 m/s

Explanation:

So usually a river with a speed of 1 meters per second can transport particle that weighs:

$1^6 = 1 kg$

If the particle is twice as massive as usual, then its weights would be 1 * 2 = 2kg

This means the river must be flowing at a speed of

$2^{\frac{1}{6}} = 1.122 m/s$

The overall length of a piccolo is 32.0 cm. The resonating air column vibrates as in a pipe that is open at both ends. (a) Find

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

lowest frequency = 535.93 Hz

distance between adjacent anti nodes is 4.25 cm

Explanation:

given data

length L = 32 cm = 0.32 m

to find out

frequency and distance between adjacent anti nodes

solution

we consider here speed of sound through air at room temperature 20 degree is approximately v = 343 m/s

so

lowest frequency will be = $\frac{v}{2L}$ ..............1

put here value in equation 1

lowest frequency will be = $\frac{343}{2(0.32)}$

lowest frequency = 535.93 Hz

and

we have given highest frequency f = 4000Hz

so

wavelength = $\frac{v}{f}$ ..............2

put here value

wavelength = $\frac{343}{4000}$

wavelength = 0.08575 m

so distance = $\frac{wavelength}{2}$ ..............3

distance = $\frac{0.08575}{2}$

distance = 0.0425 m

so distance between adjacent anti nodes is 4.25 cm
