You are given two rectangular blocks of shiny metal, Block A and Block B, and are asked to determine which one will float in a b

ath of mercury (a metal that is liquid at room temperature). Block A is 10 cm long, 6 cm wide and 1 cm high and has a mass of 630 g. Block B is 5 cm long, 5 cm wide, 3 cm high, and has a mass of 604 g. If mercury has a density of 13.6 g/cm3, which of the two blocks will float when placed in mercury?

Answer:

Explanation:

Volume of block A = 10 x 6 x 1 = 60 cm³

Mass of block A = 630 g

density of mass A = mass / density

= 630 / 60 = 10.5g / cm³

Volume of block B = 5 x 5 x 3 = 75 cm³

Mass of block A = 604 g

density of mass A = mass / density

= 604 / 75 = 8.05 g / cm³

Since density of both A and B are less than that of mercury , both will float in mercury.

<h3>What is Quadratic equation ?</h3>

A quadratic equation as an equation of degree 2, meaning that the highest exponent of this function is 2. The standard form of a quadratic equation is y = ax^{2} + bx + c, where a, b, and c are numbers and a cannot be 0

P(A) = 0.006 a^{2} - 0.02a + 120

123 = 0.006- 0.02a + 120

0=0.006 a^{2} - 0.02a - 3

you can use the quadratic equation  formula to solve for the man's age.

A = (-b ± (\sqrt{b^{2} - 4*a*c})  ) / (2a)

A = (0.02 ±  \sqrt{(-0.02)^{2} - 4*0.006*(-3)}/ (2*0.006)

A = (0.02 ± \sqrt{0.0076}) / 0.012

A = 9 , -5.67

Age of the man will be 9 years

What kind of material has a high resistivity and prevents the movement of electrons?
dolphi86 [110]
The correct answer is option C. insulator.

An insulator material<span> has a high resistivity and prevents the movement of electrons. It is a hindrance in the path of electrons & resists the current flow.

The conductor conducts electrons as it offers very less resistance. A battery provides voltage to the circuit.  

Hence, option (c) is correct. </span>
