Answer:

Option A is the correct option.

Solution,

S=10 m

u=0 m/s

a=9.8 m/s^2

Now,

<h3> $2s = a {t}^{2} \\ or \: {t}^{2} = \frac{2 \times 10}{9.8} \\ or \: {t}^{2} = \frac{20}{9.8} \\ or \: {t}^{2} = 2.04 \\ or \: t = \sqrt{2.04} \\ t = 1.43 \: seconds$ </h3>

hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment...

A stack of 55 business cards is 1.85 cm tall. Use this information to determine the thickness of one business

Sindrei [870]

To find the answer, take 55 and divide it by 1.85 to get the thickness of one card. In this case the answer would be 29.72973 cm. each.

An object weighs 63.8 N in air. When it is suspended from a force scale and completely immersed in water the scale reads 16.8 N.

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

The density of this object is approximately $1.36\; {\rm kg \cdot L^{-1}}$ .

The density of the oil in this question is approximately $0.600\; {\rm kg \cdot L^{-1}}$ .

(Assumption: the gravitational field strength is $g =9.806\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}$ )

Explanation:

When the gravitational field strength is $g$ , the weight $(\text{weight})$ of an object of mass $m$ would be $m\, g$ .

Conversely, if the weight of an object is $(\text{weight})$ in a gravitational field of strength $g$ , the mass $m$ of that object would be $m = (\text{weight}) / g$ .

Assuming that $g =9.806\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}$ . The mass of this $63.8\; {\rm N}$ -object would be:

$\begin{aligned} \text{mass} &= \frac{\text{weight}}{g} \\ &= \frac{63.8\; {\rm N}}{9.806\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}} \\ &\approx 6.506\; {\rm kg}\end{aligned}$ .

When an object is immersed in a liquid, the buoyancy force on that object would be equal to the weight of the liquid that was displaced. For instance, since the object in this question was fully immersed in water, the volume of water displaced would be equal to the volume of this object.

When this object was suspended in water, the buoyancy force on this object was $(63.8\; {\rm N} - 16.8\; {\rm N}) = 47.0\; {\rm N}$ . Hence, the weight of water that this object displaced would be $47.0 \; {\rm N}$ .

The mass of water displaced would be:

$\begin{aligned}\text{mass} &= \frac{\text{weight}}{g} \\ &= \frac{47.0\: {\rm N}}{9.806\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}} \\ &\approx 4.793\; {\rm kg}\end{aligned}$ .

The volume of that much water (which this object had displaced) would be:

$\begin{aligned}\text{volume} &= \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{density}} \\ &\approx \frac{4.793\; {\rm kg}}{1.00\; {\rm kg \cdot L^{-1}}} \\ &\approx 4.793\; {\rm L}\end{aligned}$ .

Since this object was fully immersed in water, the volume of this object would be equal to the volume of water displaced. Hence, the volume of this object is approximately $4.793\; {\rm L}$ .

The mass of this object is $6.50\; {\rm kg}$ . Hence, the density of this object would be:

$\begin{aligned} \text{density} &= \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}} \\ &\approx \frac{6.506\; {\rm kg}}{4.793\; {\rm L}} \\ &\approx 1.36\; {\rm kg \cdot L^{-1}} \end{aligned}$ .

(Rounded to $\text{$3$ sig. fig.}$ )

Similarly, since this object was fully immersed in oil, the volume of oil displaced would be equal to the volume of this object: approximately $4.793\; {\rm L}$ .

The weight of oil displaced would be equal to the magnitude of the buoyancy force: $63.8\; {\rm N} - 35.6\; {\rm N} = 28.2\; {\rm N}$ .

The mass of that much oil would be:

$\begin{aligned}\text{mass} &= \frac{\text{weight}}{g} \\ &= \frac{28.2\: {\rm N}}{9.806\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}} \\ &\approx 2.876\; {\rm kg}\end{aligned}$ .

Hence, the density of the oil in this question would be:

$\begin{aligned} \text{density} &= \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}} \\ &\approx \frac{2.876\; {\rm kg}}{4.793\; {\rm L}} \\ &\approx 0.600\; {\rm kg \cdot L^{-1}} \end{aligned}$ .

How are dwarf planets different from true planets?

morpeh [17]

Answer:

The only difference between a planet and a dwarf planet is the area surrounding each celestial body. A dwarf planet has not cleared the area around its orbit, while a planet has.

Explanation:

the three criteria of the IAU for a full-sized planet are: It is in orbit around the Sun. It has sufficient mass to assume hydrostatic equilibrium (a nearly round shape). It has "cleared the neighborhood" around its orbit .
