Answer:

32 bottles

Explanation:

If we create a free body diagram on the child we have his weight and the bouyant force

W-B=0

They must be equal to mantain equilibrium on the body and he can stay floating, this force is equivalent to the weight of water displaced

W=B=Ww

Mg=mg

32 kg=mass of water displaced

1 kilogram per liter (kg/L) is the density of water, this means that 32 Liters of water are displaced and since the bottles can retain 1 liter, the child needs 32 bottles

How will sunlight most likely affect a black shirt on a hot summer day? the temperature of the shirt will depend on how much sun
vladimir2022 [97]

The correct answer is option (C) the temperature of the shirt will increase because all wavelengths of light are absorbed by the shirt.

The relationship of heat and light

  • Heat is a measure of the movement of particles in the body, the more particles move, the warmer the body becomes.
  • When the body absorbs light radiation, its particles vibrate in accordance with the electromagnetic radiation's wavelengths, which causes an increase in the temperature with the increase in particle movement.
  • The more wavelengths of radiation absorbed by an object, produces more heat.
