an object will float at the surface of a liquid if the mass of the object is less than the mess of the liquid that it displaces.

A spherical vessel (diameter = 5cm) when empty has a mass of 12g. What is the greatest volume of water that can be placed in the vessel and still have the vessel float at the surface of benzene?

Answer:

45.44 mL

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • m = mass of the empty spherical vessel = 12 g = 0.012 kg
  • d = diameter of the spherical vessel = 5 cm

Assume:

  • r = radius of the spherical vessel = \dfrac{d}{2}=\dfrac{5\ cm}{2} = 2.5\ cm = 2.5\times 10^{-2}\ m
  • \rho = density of benzene = 876\ kg/m^3
  • \rho_w = density of water = 997\ kg/m^3
  • V = the greatest volume of water that can be placed in the vessel
  • v = volume of the spherical vessel

According to the given question, an object floats at the surface of a liquid if the mass of the object is less than the mass of the liquid displaced by it.

Let the greatest volume of water that can be put in the vessel so that it still floats at the surface of the benzene. Then the sum of the masses of the volume of water in the vessel and the empty vessel is equal to the mass of the volume of benzene displaced by the whole vessel.

i.e., Mass of water in the vessel + Mass of the empty vessel = Mass of the benzene displaced by the whole vessel

\Rightarrow V\rho_w+m=v \rho\\\Rightarrow V\rho_w+m=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3\rho\\\Rightarrow V\rho_w=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3\times \rho-m\\\Rightarrow V\rho_w=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi (2.5\times 10^{-2})^3\times 876-0.012\\\Rightarrow V\rho_w=0.0573-0.012\\\Rightarrow V\times 997=0.0453\\\Rightarrow V=\dfrac{0.0453}{997}\\\Rightarrow V=4.544\times 10^{-5}\ m^3\\\Rightarrow V=4.544\times 10^{-5}\times 10^6\ mL\\\Rightarrow V=45.44\ mL

Hence, the greatest volume of water that can be placed in the vessel such that it still floats on the benzene surface is 45.44 mL.

If R = 12 cm, M = 520 g, and m = 20 g (below), find the speed of the block after it has descended 50 cm starting from rest. Solv
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

v = 0.84 m/s

Explanation:

given,

R = 12 cm

M (mass of pulley )= 520 g

m  (mass of block)=  20 g

s = 50 cm = 0.5 m

using conservation of energy

Potential energy = Kinetic energy

 m g h = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2

   I_{disk}= \dfrac{1}{2}MR^2  and v = r ω

 m g h = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}(\dfrac{1}{2}MR^2)(\dfrac{v}{R})^2

 m g h = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 +\dfrac{1}{4}Mv^2

 m g h = \dfrac{1}{2}v^2(m +\dfrac{1}{2}M)

 v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2mgh}{m + 0.5 M}}

 v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 0.020 \times 9.8 \times 0.5}{0.02 + 0.5\times 0.52}}

      v = √0.7

      v = 0.84 m/s

What is the difference between the formation of an ionic bond and formation of a covalent bond?
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Answer to the question:

Explanation:

Differences between ionic bond and covalent bond:

The ionic bond occurs between two different atoms (metallic and non-metallic), while the covalent bond occurs between two equal atoms (non-metallic).

In the covalent bond there is an electron compartment, while in the ionic bond there is an electron transfer.

Ionic bonds have a high melting and boiling point, while covalent bonds usually have a low point.

True or False Vectors
Llana [10]

Answer:

false

Explanation:

Resultant is a force with the combined effect of two or more forces. Even though a force is a vector, it is not part of the definition of a vector. Vectors a made of 2 or more components, depending on the dimension of the vector. A 2-D vector has two components, 3-D has three, and so on. In your case, you are probably generally working on 2-D vectors, so simply two components would be correct.
