180 N

Step by Step Explanation :

Step 1 :

Given that the buoyant force of the boat is 260 N

and the boat's weight is 80 N

We have to find the maximum weight capacity of the boat so that it continues to float.

The boat would float when the total of the weight of  boat and the load it carries do not exceed the buoyant force.

Step 2 :

The weight capacity of the boat is therefore 260 N - 80 N = 180 N

Hence the boat can carry a weight of 180 N to continue to float

Answer:

The maximum weight capacity will be less than 180 N

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Archimedes principle, an object floats in the fluid if its buoyant force is greater than the weight of the object.

Here the buoyant force is 260 N so weight up to < 260, the boat will float.

Let the maximum weight capacity be x.

                                             x + 80 < 260

                                or, x + 80 - 80 < 260 - 80

                                               or, x < 180

So the maximum allowed weight will be less than 180 N.

ANSWER PLEASE 40 POINTS!
tangare [24]

Answer: |10 - (-8)|  

The absolute value is 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two numbers is a subtraction equation.

10 - (-8)  Subtracting a negative is like adding a positive

10 + 8 = 18

If you look at it as the first negative sign means -1 multiplied by the next negative number, "Remember that a negative times a negative is a positive!"

Tegan needs to make 686868 more snow blocks to finish building an igloo. Write an equation for the number of blocks Tegan still
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

We are given:

No: of blocks Tegan still needs to make = m.

No: of blocks Tegan has completed = c

Total No:of more snow blocks need to make = 68 .

Total number of more snow blocks need to make = Total number of blocks -  The number of blocks Tegan has completed.

m = 68 - c.

Therefore, the equation for the number of blocks Tegan still needs to make, m, when she has completed c blocks is

m = 68 - c.

For example.

Suppose if c = 10, it means Tegan still needs to make 68-10 = 58 block.
