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]

Physcs Questions from 8th grade....
scoray [572]

1).  Yes.  An object can be moving if the net force acting on the object is zero. 
A non-zero net force is required to CHANGE the object's motion ... speed it up,
slow it down, or change its direction.  But no force is required to keep it moving
at a constant speed in a straight line.

2).a).  The motion of the box changes, from not moving to moving. 
So the forces acting on it must be unbalanced.

2).b).  The motion of the box doesn't change.  It goes from not moving
to still not moving.  So the forces acting on it must be balanced.

2).c).  The motion of the box changes.  Its speed decreases. 
So the forces acting on it must be unbalanced.

A Balloon is filled with water inside, when it is hanged over a burning fire the balloon filled with water doesn't brust why??​
GaryK [48]

Answer:

The water filled balloon does not burst because the rubber obviously does not reach a temperature sufficient for it to melt or burn. The rubber is stretched thin so that heat is quickly transferred into the balloon. With air inside the balloon, this heat is not readily dissipated away from the spot touching the flame.
