Answer:

10.0 kg

Explanation:

1 gallon of water is equal to 3.79 liters of water. Then, 2.65 gallons of water are:

2.65 gal water × (3.79 L water / 1 gal water) = 10.0 L water

The density of water is about 1.00 kg/L. The mass corresponding to 10.0 L of water is:

10.0 L × (1.00 kg/L) = 10.0 kg

The mass of 2.65 gallons of water is 10.0 kg.

Answer:

The weight of the water is 10.0 kg

Explanation:

Hi there!!

Since the density of water is 1 g/ml, knowing the volume of water, we can determine its weight. First, let´s convert the unit gallon into liters:

1 gallon = 3.785 l

Then:

2.65 gallons · (3.785 l / 1 gallon) = 10.0 l

Since 1 l = 1000 ml, 10.0 l will be 10000 ml

The density of water is 1 g/ml, then the weight of 10.0 l is 10000 g or 10.0 kg.

A water pump is a positive displacement-type pump true or false
Kay [80]

Answer: True

A water pump belong to a positive displacement pump that provides constant flow of water at fixed speed, regardless of changes in the counter pressure. The two main types of positive displacement pump are rotary pumps and reciprocating pumps.

Moreover, water pump is a reciprocating positive displacement pump that have an expanding cavity on the suction side and a decreasing cavity on the discharge side. In water pumps, the liquid flows into the pumps as the cavity on the suction side expands and then the liquid flows out of the discharge as the cavity collapses providing water in a pail.

When serving a tennis ball, a player hits the ball when its velocity is zero (at the highest point of a vertical toss). The racq
Lilit [14]

Answer:60 gm

Explanation:

Given

initial velocity of ball u=0

Force exerted by racquet F=540 N

time period of force t=5\ ms

final velocity of ball v=45\ m/s

Racquet imparts an impulse to the ball which is given by

J=F\Delta t=\Delta P

J=540\times \Delta t=m(45-0)

m=\frac{540\times 5\times 10^{-3}}{45}

m=60\ gm

Find the velocity, acceleration, and speed of a particle with the given position function. r(t = t2i 6tj 4 ln t k
artcher [175]
1st derivative gives velocity;
d r(t)/ dt = 2t i + 6 j + 4/t k

2nd derivative gives acceleration;
d^2 r(t)/ dt^2 = 2 i - 4/ t^2

Speed ;
Square root of (4 t^2 + 36 + 16/ t^2)

For a given time, like 2 seconds, t will be 2. And answer of speed will be scalar.

If an atomic nucleus were the size of a dime how far away might one of its electrons be?
mihalych1998 [28]
The radius of a nucleus of hydrogen is approximately r_{n1}=1\cdot 10^{-15}m, while we can use the Borh radius as the distance of an electron from the nucleus in a hydrogen atom: r_{e1}=5.3 \cdot 10^{-11}m

The radius of a dime is approximately r_{n2} = 9\cdot 10^{-3}m: if we assume that the radius of the nucleus is exactly this value, then we  can find how far is the electron by using the proportion
r_{n1}:r_{e1}=r_{n2}:r_{e2}
from which we find
r_{e2}= \frac{r_{e1} r_{n2}}{r_{n1}}= \frac{(5.3 \cdot 10^{-11}m)(9\cdot 10^{-3}m)}{1 \cdot 10^{-15}m}=477 m

So, if the nucleus had the size of a dime, we would find the electron approximately 500 meters away.
