Answer:

F = 1618.65[N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the following equation that relates the mass, density and volume of the body to the floating force.

We know that the density of wood is equal to 750 [kg/m^3]

density = m / V

where:

m = mass = 165[kg]

V = volume [m^3]

V = m / density

V = 165 / 750

V = 0.22 [m^3]

The floating force is equal to:

F = density * g * V

F = 750*9.81*0.22

F = 1618.65[N]

Object A is negatively Charged. object A and Object B attract. Object B and Object C repel. Object C and Object D attract. What
3241004551 [841]

Remember opposites attract and same charges repel each other.

Object A= negatively charged.

Object A and B attract so B must be positively charged.

Object B and C repel so because B is positively charged C must also be positively charged.

Object C and D attract and because C is positively charged, D must be negatively charged.

A metal detector used in airports is actually a large coil of wire carrying a small current. Explain how it detects a gun, even
Alexus [3.1K]

<u>Metal detectors work by transmitting an electromagnetic field from the search coil into the ground. Any metal objects (targets) within the electromagnetic field will become energised and retransmit an electromagnetic field of their own. The detector’s search coil receives the retransmitted field and alerts the user by producing a target response. metal detectors are capable of discriminating between different target types and can be set to ignore unwanted targets. </u>

1. Search Coil

The detector’s search coil transmits the electromagnetic field into the ground and receives the return electromagnetic field from a target.

2. Transmit Electromagnetic Field (visual representation only - blue)

The transmit electromagnetic field energises targets to enable them to be detected.

3. Target

A target is any metal object that can be detected by a metal detector. In this example, the detected target is treasure, which is a good (accepted) target.

If a hot air balloon is seen rising above the top of a hill, what is the top of the hill called? Question 2 options: delta point
timofeeve [1]

If a hot air balloon has shown rising above the top of a hill, the top of the hill is considered as a reference point.

<h2>Reference Point:</h2>

It is a point that is used to standardize a experiment. The reference point is a constant point.

In the given problem:

  • The hot air balloon is rising above the top of the hill. Here, the hill is a standard point that has a fixed (constant) height.
  • Some other reference points are the top of the Eifel Tower or a famous shop which a person use to denote a certain distance.

Therefore, "If a hot air balloon has shown rising above the top of a hill" the top of the hill is considered as a reference point.

FM radio ________________. a. had a somewhat shorter range than AM radio, but better sound quality. b. was widely adopted in the
svetlana [45]

Answer:

(A) FM Radio had a somewhat shorter ranger than AM radio, but better sound quality.

Explanation:

FM Radio was invented in 1933 by Edwin Armstrong who was an American engineer. FM stands for frequency modulation and AM stands for Amplitude Modulation.

FM is used for most broadcasts of music and FM radio stations use a very high-frequency range of radio frequencies.

In FM Radio, the sound is transmitted through changes in frequency. Both FM and AM radio signals experience frequent change in amplitude, they are far less noticeable on FM.

When switching between stations, FM antenna is alternating between different frequencies, and not amplitudes and this produces a much clearer sound and allows for smoother transitions with little to no audible static.

FM signals can be interfered by barriers and this could affect the signal strength. FM Radio signals are more clearer in a mountainous area that has no barrier.

AM radio was able to carry signals farther than AM radio.

a 1-kg discus is thrown with a velocity of 19 m/s at an angle of 35 degrees from the vertical direction. calculate the vertical
nlexa [21]

Answer:

Vx =  10.9 m/s ,  Vy = 15.6 m/s

Explanation:

Given velocity V= 19 m/s

the angle 35 ° is taken from Y-axis so the angle with x-axis will be 90°-35° = 55°

θ = 55°

to Find Vx = ? and Vy= ?

Vx = V cos θ

Vx = 19 m/s  × cos 55°

Vx =  10.9 m/s

Vx = V sin θ

Vy = 19 m/s  × sin 55°

Vy = 15.6 m/s
