Float, its to light there's not enough denisty to bring it down

It will sink because the density of water is 1. And if the objects density is 1.05 its more dense than water, so therefore it will sink.

A submarine is 2.99 ✕ 102 m horizontally from shore and 1.00 ✕ 102 m beneath the surface of the water. A laser beam is sent from

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

a The diagram of the situation is shown on the first uploaded image

b the angle of incidence beam striking the water is $\theta = 49.63^o$

c the angle of refraction beam striking the water is $r = 59.7^o$

d The angle the refracted beam make with respect to the horizontal is $= 30.3^o$

e The height of the target above sea level is

$h= 125.05m$

Explanation:

From the diagram we see that the angle of the beam striking the water is

$tan \theta = \frac{100}{85}$

$\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{100}{85} )$

$= 49.63^o$

According to Snell's law

$\mu_{water} *sin(i) = \mu_{air} *sin(r)$

Where $\mu_{water }$ is the refractive index of water = 1.333

$i$ is the angle of incidence

$\mu_{air}$ is the refractive index of air = 1

r is the angle of refraction

Substituting values accordingly

$1.33 * sin (40.37) = 1 * sin(r)$

Making r the subject of the formula

$r = sin^{-1}(\frac{1.333 *sin(40.37)}{1})$

$= 59.7^o$

looking at the diagram we can see that to obtain the angle the refraction beam makes with the horizontal by subtracting the angle refraction from 90°

i.e $90 -59.7 = 30.3$ °

From the diagram we see that the height target above sea level can be obtained by this relation

$tan \theta = \frac{h}{214}\\$

Where h is the is the height

$tan(30.3) = \frac{h}{214}$

$h = 214 * tan (30.3)$

$=125.05m$

an 1150kg elevator moving down speeds up at a rate of 3.5m/s. what is the tension in the supporting cables?

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

The tension force in the supporting cables is 7245N

Explanation:

There are two forces acting on the elevator: the force of gravity pointing down (+) with magnitude (elevator mass) x (gravitational acceleration), and the tension force of the cable pointing up (-) with an unknown magnitude F. The net force is the sum of these forces:

$F_{net} = F_g - F = m\cdot g - F\\$

We are given the resulting acceleration along with the mass, i.e., we know the net force, allowing us to solve for F:

$1150kg\cdot 3.5\frac{m}{s^2}= 1150kg \cdot 9.8\frac{m}{s^2}-F\\\implies F = 1150kg\cdot(9.8-3.5)\frac{m}{s^2}= 7245N$

The tension force F in the supporting cables is 7245N

Suppose there are 10,000 civilizations in the Milky Way Galaxy. If the civilizations were randomly distributed throughout the di

vekshin1

Here is the full question

Suppose there are 10,000 civilizations in the Milky Way Galaxy. If the civilizations were randomly distributed throughout the disk of the galaxy, about how far (on average) would it be to the nearest civilization?

(Hint: Start by finding the area of the Milky Way's disk, assuming that it is circular and 100,000 light-years in diameter. Then find the average area per civilization, and use the distance across this area to estimate the distance between civilizations.)

Answer:

1000 light-years (ly)

Explanation:

If we go by the hint; The area of the disk can be expressed as:

$A = \pi (\frac{D}{2})^2$
