Answer:

To measure the volume of an irregularly shaped object, pour some water in a measuring cylinder. Then suspend the irregularly shaped object with a thread. After that , move the object gradually downwards and immerse it in water. The volume of the irregularly shaped object is the difference between the volume of the liquid before and after. After measuring the difference, we come to know about the volume of the irregularly shaped object.

Explanation:

Volume is the amount of space an object takes up, while mass is the amount of matter in an object. ... To find the volume of an irregular sized object, one would use the displacement method for measuring volume and place the object in water and measure the amount of water that is displaced.

What does the slope of a secant line represent
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Secant line is a straight line which joins the two points of functions and it also represents the slope between two points.

Explanation:

Secant line is also known as average rate of change of functions between two points and also called slope.

In mathematical form,

Secant line = average rate of change = slope

Slope m = y/x

The small spherical planet called "Glob" has a mass of 7.88×10^18 kg and a radius of 6.32×10^4 m. An astronaut on the surface of
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer: The small spherical planet called "Glob" has a mass of 7.88×1018 kg and a radius of 6.32×104 m. An astronaut on the surface of Glob throws a rock straight up. The rock reaches a maximum height of 1.44×103 m, above the surface of the planet, before it falls back down.

1) the initial speed of the rock as it left the astronaut's hand is 19.46 m/s.

2) A 36.0 kg satellite is in a circular orbit with a radius of 1.45×105 m around the planet Glob. Then the speed of the satellite is 3.624km/s.

Explanation: To find the answer, we need to know about the different equations of planetary motion.

<h3>How to find the initial speed of the rock as it left the astronaut's hand?</h3>
  • We have the expression for the initial velocity as,

                           v=\sqrt{2gh}

  • Thus, to find v, we have to find the acceleration due to gravity of glob. For this, we have,

                       g_g=\frac{GM}{r^2} =\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*7.88*10^{18}}{(6.32*10^4)^2}= 0.132

  • Now, the velocity will become,

                        v=\sqrt{2*0.132*1.44*10^3} =19.46 m/s

<h3>How to find the speed of the satellite?</h3>
  • As we know that, by equating both centripetal force and the gravitational force, we get the equation of speed of a satellite as,

                       v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r} } =\sqrt{\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*7.88*10^{18}}{1.45*10^5} } =3.624km/s

Thus, we can conclude that,

1) the initial speed of the rock as it left the astronaut's hand is 19.46 m/s.

2) A 36.0 kg satellite is in a circular orbit with a radius of 1.45×105 m around the planet Glob. Then the speed of the satellite is 3.624km/s.

What is number 30,31 in this picture?
Maslowich
On question 30, that is a displacement- time graph (DT). On this type of graph the gradient is equal to the velocity. B has the steepest gradient, then A and finally C

Now velocity is a vector quantity so it has a direction and speed ( speed doesn't have a fixed direction.)

on the DT graph im going to assume that movement B is a positive velocity with A and C being negative. 
So by ranking these: A is the most negative, C is the least negative and B has to be the greatest as it is the only positive velocity. 

Q31, The same type of graph is present, by looking at the gradients we can rank the largest and smallest velocities- speeds in the case of the question. 
i'll skip my working out as its the same as before:

C, B, A and then D

the same idea as on Q30 applies to Q31 part b, 

D,C,B then A

How do the units of work and power compare?
ki77a [65]

Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Work done is given by :

W = Fd, where F is force and d is displacement

Unit of work done :

The SI unit of force is Newton (N) and that of displacement is meter (m). So, the unit of work done is N-m. It is call Joule. It means that the unit of work done is Joule.

Power is given by rate at which the work is done. It is given by :

P = W/t, W is work done and t is time

Unit of power:

Unit of work is Joule (J) and that of time is second (s). It means that the unit of power is Watt and it is equal to Joule/second

Hence, the correct option is (d) "The unit for work is a joule. The unit for power is a watt, which is a joule per second".
