D=m÷v

so density would be 57.9 ÷ 3 = 19.3 g/cm³

The answer is: " 20 g/cm³ " .
________________________________________________
Density = mass (g) per unit volume (cm³) ;

or: D = m / v ;

D = 57.9 g / 3 cm³ = (57.9 / 3) g / cm³ = 19.3 g / cm³ ;
→ round to "1 significant figure;
to get: 20 g / cm³

A Shaolin monk of mass 60 kg is able to do a ‘finger stand’: he supports his whole weight on his two index fingers, giving him a

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

P = 1471500 [Pa]

Explanation:

We must remember that pressure is defined as the relationship between Force over the area.

$P=F/A$

where:

P = pressure [Pa] (units of pascals)

F = force [N] (units of Newtons)

A = area of contact = 4 [cm²]

But first we must convert from cm² to m²

$A = 4[cm^{2}]*\frac{1^{2} m^{2} }{100^{2} cm^{2} }$

A = 0.0004 [m²]

Also, the weight should be calculated as follows:

$w = m*g$

where:

m = mass = 60 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

Now replacing:

$w = 60*9.81\\w = 588.6[N]$

And the pressure:

$P=588.6/0.0004\\P=1471500 [Pa]$

Because 1 [Pa] = 1 [N/m²]

The quantity of matter in an object. More specifically, it is the measure of the inertia that an object exhibits in response to

nlexa [21]

Answer:

Mass

Explanation:

The mass of an object expresses the amount of matter it comprises. Which implies that objects with higher mass contains higher matter compared to objects with lesser masses. Thereby it determines the measure of inertia experienced by an object when a force is applied to change its direction of motion, or to set it in motion when at rest, or bring it to rest when in motion.

The mass of an object the same no matter its location, and it is measured in kilograms.

Are light waves longitudinal or transverse

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Transverse

Explanation:

There are two types of waves, according to the direction of their oscillation:

- Transverse waves: in a transverse wave, the direction of the oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave. Examples of transverse waves are electromagnetic waves

- Longitudinal waves: in a longitudinal wave, the direction of the oscillation is parallel to the direction of motion of the wave. Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves.

Light waves corresponds to the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum, which includes all the different types of electromagnetic waves (which consist of oscillations of electric and magnetic fields that are perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave): therefore, they are transverse waves.

A 1.2 kg block of wood hangs motionless from strings. A 50 gram bullet, traveling horzontally, strikes the block and becomes emb

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

speed of the bullet before it hit the block is 200 m/s

Explanation:

given data

mass of block m1 = 1.2 kg

mass of bullet m2 = 50 gram = 0.05 kg

combine speed V= 8.0 m/s

to find out

speed of the bullet before it hit the block

solution

we will apply here conservation of momentum that is

m1 × v1 + m2 × v2 = M × V .............1

here m1 is mass of block and m2 is mass of bullet and v1 is initial speed of block i.e 0 and v2 is initial speed of bullet and M is combine mass of block and bullet and V is combine speed of block and bullet

put all value in equation 1

m1 × v1 + m2 × v2 = M × V

1.2 × 0 + 0.05 × v2 = ( 1.2 + 0.05 ) × 8

solve it we get

v2 = 200 m/s

so speed of the bullet before it hit the block is 200 m/s
