A piece of wood that floats on water has a mass of 0.0175 kg. A lead weight is tied to the wood, and the apparent mass with the

wood in air and the lead weight submerged in water is 0.0765 kg. The apparent mass with the wood and the lead weight both submerged in water is 0.0452 kg. What is the specific gravity of the wood

Answer:

Specific gravity is 0.56

Explanation:

We know that

mass of water displaced by the wood is, m1( apparent mass when wood in air and lead is submerged in water) - m2(the apparent mass when wood and lead both are submerged in water)

= 0.0765 - 0.0452 = 0.0313 Kg

So the specific gravity of the wood is, = mass of wood / mass of water displaced by the wood

= 0.0175/0.0313

=0.56

Eac of the two Straight Parallel Lines Each of two very long, straight, parallel lines carries a positive charge of 24.00 m C/m.
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field at a point equidistant from the lines is 4.08\times10^{5}\ N/C

Explanation:

Given that,

Positive charge = 24.00  μC/m

Distance = 4.10 m

We need to calculate the angle

Using formula of angle

\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{\dfrac{d}{2}}{2d})

\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1}{4})

\theta=14.47^{\circ}

We need to calculate the magnitude of the electric field at a point equidistant from the lines

Using formula of electric field

E=\dfrac{2k\lambda}{r}\times2\cos\theat

Put the value into the formula

E=\dfrac{2\times9\times10^{9}\times24.00\times2\times10^{-6}\cos14.47}{2.05}

E=408094.00\ N/C

E=4.08\times10^{5}\ N/C

Hence, The magnitude of the electric field at a point equidistant from the lines is 4.08\times10^{5}\ N/C

KIM [24]

Answer:

9.6m/s

Explanation:

Using the equation S=d/t where s=speed, d=distance, and t=time

plug in the known variables

S=120m/12.5s

S=9.6m/s
