The answer would be C. 80%
Put 160 over 200 and find the GCF
160/200÷40=4/5=80%

A plastic bottle partially filled with water floats on water, even though the density of the plastic (1.2 g/cc) is more than tha
Semmy [17]

Answer:

True the plastic will float because of the principle of flotation or buoyancy

Explanation:

Buoyancy explains it all!!

Buoyancy  is the upward force/upthrust experienced by a body immersed totally or partially in a liquid.

According to the principle of flotation:

<em>"when a body is totally or partially immersed in liquid it experiences an upthrust which is equal to the volume of fluid displaced"</em>

The plastic will float due to the fact the average density of the total volume of the plastic and the air inside it is less than the same volume of water it is floating in

A supply bag is dropped from a rescue plane. After the bag falls for 3.2 seconds , what is the velocity of the bag?
loris [4]

Answer: -31.36 m/s

Explanation:

This is a problem of motion in one direction (specifically vertical motion), and the equation that best fulfills this approach is:

V_{f}=V_{o}+a.t  (1)

Where:

V_{f} is the final velocity of the supply bag

V_{o}=0 is the initial velocity of the supply bag (we know it is zero because we are told it was "dropped", this means it goes to ground in free fall)

a=g=-9.8m/s^{2} is the acceleration due gravity (the negtive sign indicates the gravity is downwards, in the direction of the center of the Earth)

t=3.2s is the time

Knowing this, let's solve (1):

V_{f}=0+(-9.8m/s^{2})(3.2s)  (2)

Finally:

V_{f}=-31.36m/s  Note the negative sign is because the direction of the bag is downwards as well.

A battery charges a parallel-plate capacitor fully and then is removed. The plates are immediately pulled apart. (With the batte
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

<em>There will be an increase in potential difference.</em>

Explanation:

As we know that the potential difference depends upon the capacitance.

ΔV = Q/C

When battery is disconnected the charge remains constant on the plates but the capacitance decreases. As the capacitance has an inverse relation with the potential difference, there will be an increase in it.

In addition to that the potential difference can also be defined as the product of field and distance between the plates. As the charge is constant so the field is constant. Upon increasing the separation between the plates the potential difference will also increased.
