Answer:
i 5.3 cm ii. 72 cm
Explanation:
i
We know upthrust on iron = weight of mercury displaced
To balance, the weight of iron = weight of mercury displaced . So
ρ₁V₁g = ρ₂V₂g
ρ₁V₁ = ρ₂V₂ where ρ₁ = density of iron = 7.2 g/cm³ and V₁ = volume of iron = 10³ cm³ and ρ₂ = density of mercury = 13.6 g/cm³ and V₂ = volume of mercury displaced = ?
V₂ = ρ₁V₁/ρ₂ = 7.2 g/cm³ × 10³ cm³/13.6 g/cm³ = 529.4 cm³
So, the height of iron above the mercury is h = V₂/area of base iron block
= 529.4 cm³/10² cm² = 5.294 cm ≅ 5.3 cm
ρ₁V₁g = ρ₂V₂g
ii
ρ₁V₁ = ρ₃V₃ where ρ₁ = density of iron = 7.2 g/cm³ and V₁ = volume of iron = 10³ cm³ and ρ₃ = density of water = 1 g/cm³ and V₃ = volume of water displaced = ?
V₃ = ρ₁V₁/ρ₃ = 7.2 g/cm³ × 10³ cm³/1 g/cm³ = 7200 cm³
So, the height of column of water is h = V₃/area of base iron block
= 7200 cm³/10² cm² = 72 cm
Of the materials listed wood is the best insulator. It would be the least hot if exposed to similar temperatures.
Answer:
Explanation:
The horizontal distance covered by the ball in the falling is only determined by its horizontal motion - in fact, it is given by
where
is the horizontal velocity
t is the time of flight
The time of flight, instead, is only determined by the vertical motion of the ball: however, in this problem the vertical velocity is not changed (it is zero in both cases), so the time of flight remains the same.
In the first situation, the horizontal distance covered is
in the second case, the horizontal velocity is increased to
And so the new distance travelled will be
So, the distance increases linearly with the horizontal velocity.
Answer:
The answer is A, B, C, D
Explanation:
This is because gravity is the weakest force of the four fundamental forces, so it automatically cancels letter E
