The wooden block is removed from the water bath and placed in an unknown liquid. In this liquid, only one-third of the wooden bl

ock is submerged. Is the unknown liquid more or less dense than water?

Answer:

1.5 g/cm^3

Explanation:

In the question i am assuming that wooden block of weight W floats with exactly one-half of its volume below the waterline.

Let ρ_{liquid} be the density of the unknown liquid , V= volume submerged

g= acceleration due to gravity

then

weight of block = \rho_{water}\times V\times g/2

when the block is in water

Also,

weight of block = \rho_{liquid}\times V\times g/3

dividing eq 1 by eq 2 we get

\rho_{liquid} = 3/2 \rho_{water}

⇒\rho_{liquid} = 3/2

-- The wavelength and the amplitude were described in my answer to your  previous question.

-- A "compression" is a place where the wave is <em>compressed</em>.  It's the darker section of the wave in the picture, where the wavelength is temporarily shorter, so several waves are all bunched up (compressed) in a small time.

-- A "rarefaction" is exactly the opposite of a "compression".  It's a place where the wave gets more "<em>rare</em>" ... the wavelength temporarily gets longer, so that several waves get stretched out, and there are fewer of them in some  period of time.  The arrow in the picture points to a rarefaction.

Describe the general characteristics of the nearest stars. (Size, luminosity, color, etc., do not include specific stars)
Darina [25.2K]

Answer: The five general characteristics of the nearest stars are the brightness, color, surface temperature, size, and mass.

Explanation:

The mass of a star can be described as being measured with our sun at 1 solar mass. One star can equal the size of our sun. There is one star named, Rigel, that is bigger than the Earths sun. Each star will vary in its density.

The size of the star, as stated above, can be the size of our sun and sometimes larger. The size is measured by solar radii.

Stars vary in their temp. They range anywhere from -273.15 degrees Celsius to 50,000 K. The temp is based on the Kelvin scale.

The stars brightness are always based on luminosity and magnitude.

The stars colors will vary and is based on the temperature of the surface of the star. Some stars are red in color, white in color, and some even have a bluish color.

A marble slides without friction in a vertical loop around the inside of a smooth, 28.6 cm diameter horizontal pipe. The marble'
Leviafan [203]

Answer:3.49 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Speed of marble at Bottom v=4.22 m/s

Diameter of loop d=28.6 cm

As Energy is conserved therefore Energy at top is equal to energy at bottom

E_T=E_B

\frac{mv^2}{2}+mgh=\frac{mv_0^2}{2}  ,where v_0 is the velocity at bottom

\frac{v^2}{2}+gh=\frac{v_0^2}{2}

v_0^2=v^2+2gh

v^2=v_0^2-2gh

v=\sqrt{v_0^2-2gh}

v=\sqrt{4.22^2-2\times 9.8\times 0.286}

v=\sqrt{17.8084-5.6056}

v=3.49 m/s

If the potential due to a point charge is 490 V at a distance of 10 m, what are the sign and magnitude of the charge?
uysha [10]

Answer:

+5.4×10⁻⁷ C

Explanation:

Electric potential: This can be defined as the work done in bringing a unit charge from infinity to that point against the action of the field. The S.I unit of potential is volt (V)

The formula for potential is

V = kq/r............................ Equation 1

Where V = electric potential, k = proportionality constant, q = charge, r = distance.

making q the subject of the equation,

q = Vr/k............................ Equation 2

Given: V = 490 V, r = 10 m,

Constant: k = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Substitute into equation 2

q = 490(10)/(9×10⁹)

q = 5.4×10⁻⁷ C

q = +5.4×10⁻⁷ C

Hence the charge is +5.4×10⁻⁷ C
