A body weighs 100newtons when submerged in water. calculate the upthrust action on the body​

Physics

Andrews [41]3 years ago

Answer:

Upthrust = 20 N

Explanation:

The question says that "A body weighs 100N in air and 80N when submerged in water. Calculate the upthrust acting on the body ?"

Upthrust is defined as the force when a body is submerged in liquid, then liquid applies a force on it.

ATQ,

Weight of body in air is 100 N

Weight of body in water is 80 N

Upthrust is equal to the weight of body in air minus weight of body in water.

Upthrust = 100 N - 80 N

Upthrust = 20 N

So, 20 N of upthrust is acting on the body.

Particle A and particle B are held together with a compressed spring between them. When they are released, the spring pushes the
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

 K_a = 8,111 J

Explanation:

This is a collision exercise, let's define the system as formed by the two particles A and B, in this way the forces during the collision are internal and the moment is conserved

initial instant. Just before dropping the particles

          p₀ = 0

final moment

          p_f = m_a v_a + m_b v_b

          p₀ = p_f

          0 = m_a v_a + m_b v_b

tells us that

          m_a = 8 m_b

         

           0 = 8 m_b v_a + m_b v_b

           v_b = - 8 v_a                    (1)

indicate that the transfer is complete, therefore the kinematic energy is conserved

starting point

           Em₀ = K₀ = 73 J

final point. After separating the body

          Em_f = K_f = ½ m_a v_a² + ½ m_b v_b²

           K₀ = K_f

           73 = ½ m_a (v_a² + v_b² / 8)

           

we substitute equation 1

           73 = ½ m_a (v_a² + 8² v_a² / 8)

           73 = ½ m_a (9 v_a²)

           73/9 = ½ m_a (v_a²) = K_a

            K_a = 8,111 J
