A rubber ball filled with air has a diameter of 24.2 cm and a mass of 0.459 kg. What force is required to hold the ball in equil

ibrium immediately below the surface of water in a swimming pool? (Assume that the volume of the ball does not change. Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

To solve this problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Newton's second Law as well as to the expression of mass as a function of Volume and Density.

From Newton's second law we know that

F= ma

Where,

m = mass

a = acceleration

At the same time we know that the density is given by,

\rho = \frac{m}{V} \rightarrow m = \rho V

Our values are given as,

g = 9.8m/s^2

m =0.459 kg

D=0.242 m

Therefore the Force by Weight is

F_w = mg

F_w = 0.459kg * 9.8m/s^2 = 4.498N

Now the buoyant force acting on the ball is

F_B=\rho V g

The value of the Volume of a Sphere can be calculated as,

V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3

V =  \frac{4}{3} \pi (0.242/2)^3

V = 0.007420m^3

\rho_w = 1000kg/m^3 \rightarrow Normal conditions

Then,

F_B=0.007420*(1000)*(9.8) = 72.716 N

Therefore the Force net is,

F_{net} = F_B -F_w

F_{net} = 72.716N - 4.498N =68.218 N

Therefore the required Force is 68.218N

If we were to illuminate them only with light from the Balmer transition considered above, would the solar panels produce a curr
Ugo [173]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

The reason why no current is produced are basically that, the wavelengths of light in the Balmer transition are reflected, not absorbed in solar panels, hence no current is produced.

The Balmer series consists of lines in the visible spectrum. It corresponds to emission of a photon of light when electrons descend from higher energy levels to the n=2 level in the hydrogen spectrum. The various wavelengths in the Balmer series can be separated by a prism since they are all in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum.

In solar panels, light corresponding to the wavelengths in the Balmer series is merely reflected by the panel and not absorbed. Since light is not absorbed, no current can be produced when the panel is irradiated with light corresponding to the wavelengths in the Balmer series.

A 11,000-watt radio station transmits at 880 kHz. Determine the number of joules transmitted per second.
NARA [144]

1 watt = 1 joule per sec

11,000 Watts = 11,000 joules per sec

The frequency doesn't matter.

If the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of planet x is double the value of earth's, how does planet x's mass compare t
love history [14]
There is not enough information given to answer with. The force of gravity at the planet's surface depends on the planet's radius as well as its mass. The planet could have exactly the same mass as Earth has. But if it's radius is only 71% of Earth's radius, then gravity on its surface will be twice as strong as gravity on Earth.
