Answer: Weight truck+load = 29.4×10^{3} N

Explanation: When an object floats in a fluid, there is an upward force, caused by the liquid, acting on the object that opposes the weight of the immersed object. This force is called <u>Buyoyant</u> <u>Force</u> and is determined by:

B = d*V*g

where

d is density of the fluid;

V is volume of liquid displaced due to the immersed object;

g is acceleration due to gravity;

For the truck, the system is in equilibrium, which means buyoyant force is equal weight. Then:

Volume displaced is

V = 10*8*0.0375

V = 3 m^{3}

Density of water: 1000kg/m^{3}

F_{P} = F_{B}

F_{P} = 1000*3*9.8

F_{P} = 29.4×10^{3} N

The weight of the truck and the load is 29.4×10^{3} Newtons

ollegr [7]

Answer:

The cork moves up and down.

Explanation:

The cork moves up and down because of the waves produce due to tapping the surface of water. The cork experience movement due to placed on the water surface so when the wave passes through the medium by tapping of water, movement of cork also occur. Cork has high volume and lower mass so it floats on the water surface and experience movement due to waves.

niobium metal becomes a superconductor when cooled below 9 k. its superconductivity is destroyed when the surface magnetic field
Furkat [3]

Niobium wire with a 2.60 mm diameter has a maximum current capacity of 500 A while still remaining superconducting.

<h3>Describe the present.</h3>

Current is the rate at which charge passes from one point on a circuit to another. In a circuit, a significant current flows when several coulombs or charge pass over the cross section of a wire. When the charge carriers are firmly packed inside the wire, high currents can be generated at low speeds.

<h3>What do current and electron actually mean?</h3>

Electron movement is referred to as electron current. The positive terminal receives electrons that are released by the negative terminal. Traditional current, usually referred to as just current, exhibits behavior consistent with positive charge carriers being the source of current flow. Regular current is received at the positive end and then flows to a negative terminal.
