Answer:

C. Up, equal to the can's weight

Explanation:

You are camping in the breathtaking mountains if Colorado. You spy an unopened diet soda can floating motionless below the surface of a lake. What is the direction and amount of force the water exerts on it?

A. Zero

B. Down, equal to the can's weight

C. Up, equal to the can's weight

D. Not enough information is given

from the principle of flotation which states that a

When a body displaces a weight of water equal to its own weight, it floats. : A floating object displaces a weight of fluid equal to its own weight. ... Archimedes' principle equates the buoyant force to the weight of the fluid displaced.

the upthrust (this is the upward vertical force exerted on an object in fluid)in the water equals the weight of the body in water it floats.

18. Compared to its weight on Earth, a 5 kg object on the moon will weigh A. the same amount. B. less. C. more.
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

B. less

Explanation:

acceleration due to gravity on Earth, g = 9.8 m/s²

acceleration due to gravity on Moon, g = 1.6 m/s²

Given mass of the object as, m = 5 kg

Weight of an object is given as, W = mg

                                                         

Weight of the object on Earth, W = 5 x 9.8 = 49 N

Weight of the object on Moon, W = 5 x 1.6 = 8 N

Therefore, the object weighs less on the moon compared to its weight on Earth.

The correct option is "B. less"

A swimming pool is 25.0 ft. long, 18.5 ft. wide, and 9.0 ft. deep. When filled, the water level is 7.0 inches from the top. Disi
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

1.9841256 kg

Explanation:

Given;

Length of the swimming pool = 25.0 ft = 7.62 m   ( 1 ft = 0.3048 m )

Width of the swimming pool = 18.5 ft =  5.64 m

Depth of the pool = 9.0 ft =

Total depth of the water in the pool when filled = 9 ft - 7 inches = 2.56 m

now,

Volume of the water in the pool = Length × Width × Depth

or

Volume of the water in the pool = 7.62 × 5.64 × 2.56 = 110.2292 m³

also,

1 m³ = 1000 L

thus,

110.2292 m³ = 110229.2 L

also it is given that 18 mg of Cl is added to 1 liter of water

therefore,

In 110229.2 L of water Cl added will be = 110229.2 × 18 = 1984125.6 mg

or

= 1.9841256 kg
