Answer:

the wagon should be used as frame of reference if an observer said the child was not moving.

Explanation:

The state of motion of a body depends upon the frame of reference. It is the set of co-ordinates according to which the motion is analyzed. If a child is riding in a wagon, then he will be considered in motion to a person standing outside the wagon. Hence, if we take a frame of reference outside the wagon then the child must be in motion with respect to the observer. On the other hand if the observer is inside the wagon, then the child must be in rest with respect to the observer. Hence, if we take the wagon to be the frame of reference, then the child will be at rest with respect to the observer.

<u>Therefore, the wagon should be used as frame of reference if an observer said the child was not moving.</u>

1. A piece of metal weighs 50.0 N in air, 36.0 N in water, and 41.0 N in an unknown
denis23 [38]

Answer:

a) 3.37 x 10^{3} kg/m^3

b) 6.42kg/m^{3}

Explanation:

a) Firstly we would calculate the volume of the metal using it`s weight in air and water , after finding the weight we would find the density .

Weight of metal in air = 50N = mg implies the mass of metal is 5kg.

Now the difference of weight of the metal in air and water = upthrust acting on it = volume (metal) p (liquid) g = V (1000)(10) = 14N. So volume of metal piece = 14 x 10^{-4}  kg/m^{3}. So density of metal = mass of metal / volume of metal = 5 / 14 x 10^{-4}  kg/m^{3} = 3.37 x 10^{3} kg/m^3

b) Water exerts a buoyant force to the metal which is 50−36 = 14N, which equals the weight of water displaced. The mass of water displaced is 14/10 = 1.4kg Since the density of water is 1kg/L, the volume displaced is 1.4L. Hence, we end up with 3.57kg/l. Moreover, the unknown liquid exerts a buoyant force of 9N. So the density of this liquid is 6.42kg/m^{3}

Do you think toxicity is a qualitative or quantitative property? explain
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

<u>Toxicity is a quantitative property</u>

Explanation:

  • Qualitative property of a object cannot be measured it can just be observed
  • Quantitative property of a substance  can be measured and be assigned a numerical value .
  • <u>The toxicity level of a substance can be measured and be assigned a numeral value </u>
