The buoyant force on an object submerged in a liquid depends on

Physics

Answer:

the pressure exerted by the fluid on its submerged surface

Explanation:

Flotation Force (Archimedes Principle):

If we have a body floating on the surface of a liquid or completely submerged inside it, the resulting force that keeps that body in position is called the "Flotation Force."

When a body is fully submerged in a fluid at rest, the fluid exerts hodrostatic pressure on each of the body parts in contact with the fluid. By the basic equation of the Fluid Static, at the same level h the forces exerted on the body due to the pressure are compensated, since they are equal in magnitude. However, the pressure exerted by the fluid on the lower part of the body will be greater than that exerted on its upper part, so the corresponding forces are different in magnitude and are not compensated. The resulting force due to the difference in hydrostatic pressures between level h2 and level h1 is the buoyant force. That is why this force always acts in a vertical and upward direction. If the floating body does not move, the floating force will be balancing the body weight.

Experimentally it can be verified that the buoyant force does not depend on the material from which the submerged object is made, but on the hydrostatic pressures exerted by the fluid on the volume of said object. That is why we can replace it with the surrounding fluid with its same shape and volume. This portion of fluid will experience the same state of pressures as the body in question.

Flura [38]

Answer:

t = 1.098*RC

Explanation:

In order to calculate the time that the capacitor takes to reach 2/3 of its maximum charge, you use the following formula for the charge of the capacitor:

Q=Q_{max}[1-e^{-\frac{t}{RC}}]         (1)

Qmax: maximum charge capacity of the capacitor

t: time

R: resistor of the circuit

C: capacitance of the circuit

When the capacitor has 2/3 of its maximum charge, you have that

Q=(2/3)Qmax    

You replace the previous expression for Q in the equation (1), and use properties of logarithms to solve for t:

Q=\frac{2}{3}Q_{max}=Q_{max}[1-e^{-\frac{t}{RC}}]\\\\\frac{2}{3}=1-e^{-\frac{t}{RC}}\\\\e^{-\frac{t}{RC}}=\frac{1}{3}\\\\-\frac{t}{RC}=ln(\frac{1}{3})\\\\t=-RCln(\frac{1}{3})=1.098RC

The charge in the capacitor reaches 2/3 of its maximum charge in a time equal to 1.098RC

What is the difference between a solar cell and a solar panel
dexar [7]

Solar cells and solar panels are both integral, and closely related, parts of a solar energy system. When reading about solar energy systems, it may seem as if these titles are almost interchangeable. Writers refer to them both when discussing energy production and output, and often do so without explanation of how these parts work. However, each plays a distinct role. Solar cells contain all the parts necessary to convert sunlight to electricity. Solar panels combine and direct all of that energy output.

What is the volume of this bubble when it reaches the surface?
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Volume will be 15 mL. Solution:- If we look at the given information then it is Boyle's law as the temperature is constant and the volume changes inversely as the pressure changes. So, the volume of the air bubble at the surface will be 15 mL.
