Wow ! This one could have some twists and turns in it.
Fasten your seat belt. It's going to be a boompy ride.
-- The buoyant force is precisely the missing <em>30N</em> .
-- In order to calculate the density of the frewium sample, we need to know
its mass and its volume. Then, density = mass/volume .
-- From the weight of the sample in air, we can closely calculate its mass.
Weight = (mass) x (gravity)
185N = (mass) x (9.81 m/s²)
Mass = (185N) / (9.81 m/s²) = <u>18.858 kilograms of frewium</u>
-- For its volume, we need to calculate the volume of the displaced water.
The buoyant force is equal to the weight of displaced water, and the
density of water is about 1 gram per cm³. So the volume of the
displaced water (in cm³) is the same as the number of grams in it.
The weight of the displaced water is 30N, and weight = (mass) (gravity).
30N = (mass of the displaced water) x (9.81 m/s²)
Mass = (30N) / (9.81 m/s²) = 3.058 kilograms
Volume of displaced water = <u>3,058 cm³</u>
Finally, density of the frewium sample = (mass)/(volume)
Density = (18,858 grams) / (3,058 cm³) = <em>6.167 gm/cm³</em> (rounded)
================================================
I'm thinking that this must be the hard way to do it,
because I noticed that
(weight in air) / (buoyant force) = 185N / 30N = <u>6.1666...</u>
So apparently . . .
(density of a sample) / (density of water) =
(weight of the sample in air) / (buoyant force in water) .
I never knew that, but it's a good factoid to keep in my tool-box.
Answer:
Gold is not used for making electric wires because it is too rare, and too costlier than Copper. Silver and copper are used for making wires. Copper is almost used in electric lines

Answer:
Find answers below.
Explanation:
1. Radiant: the energy of light.
2. Light: makes it possible to see things.
3. Sun: a source of light. This source of light is referred to as solar energy and it's renewable source of energy.
4. Crest: top of wave. Thus, it's typically the highest part of an electromagnetic wave.
5. Trough: bottom of wave. Thus, it's typically the lowest part of an electromagnetic wave.
6. Wavelength: distance from one point on one wave to the same point on the next wave.
7. Infrared light: it has longer wavelengths than visible light.
8. X-rays: shorter wavelengths than visible light.
Electromagnetic waves is a propagating medium used in all communications device to transmit data (messages) from the device of the sender to the device of the receiver.
An electromagnetic spectrum refers to a range of frequency and wavelength that an electromagnetic wave is distributed or extends. The electromagnetic spectrum comprises of gamma rays, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, radio waves, and infrared radiation.
