A sample of copper has a volume of 23.4 cm3 if the density of copper is 8.9 gcm3 what is the coppers mass?

1 answer:

7 0

The answer is: " 208 g " .
_____________________________________________
Explanation:
__________________________________________
The formula/ equation for density is:
__________________________________________
D = m / V ; That is, "mass divided by volume" ;

Density is expressed as:
__________________________________________
   "mass per unit volume"; in which the "mass" is expressed in units of "g" ("grams") ; and the "unit volume" is expressed in units of:
"cm³ " or "mL";
_____________________________________________
{Note the exact equivalent: 1 cm³ = 1 mL }.
____________________________________________
→ The formula is: " D = m / V " ;
___________________________________________
in which:

"D" refers to the "density" (see above), which is: "8.9 g/cm³ " (given);

"m" refers to the "mass" , in units of "g" (grams), which is unknown; and we want to find this value;

"V" refers to the "volume", in units of "cm³ " ;
which is: "23.4 cm³ " (given);
_________________________________________________
We want to find the mass, "m" ; so we take the original equation/formula for the density:
_________________________________________________
D = m / V ;
_________________________________________________________
And we rearrange; to isolate "m" (mass) on ONE side of the equation; and then we plug in our known/given values;
to solve for "m" (mass); in units of "g" (grams) ;
___________________________________________________
Multiply each side of the equation by "V" ;
____________________________________________________
V * { D = m / V } ; to get:
____________________________________________________
V * D = m ;   ↔ m = V * D ;
___________________________________________________
Now, we plug in the given values for "V" (volume) and "D" (density) ; to solve for the mass, "m" ;
______________________________________________________
m = V * D ;

m = (23.4 cm³) * (8.9 g / 1 cm³) = (23.4 * 8.9) g = 208.26 g ;

→ Round to "208 g" (3 significant figures);
____________________________________
The answer is: " 208 g " .

Answer:

By the experiences, ideas of origin, power and modern empiricism.

Explanation:

The route of the psychology has been recorded by the history of India, Middle East, Europe and China. The Confucius and Buddha focused on the ideas origin and the power. The ancient Hebrews, Aristotle and Pluto tells the idea whether the body with the mind is connected or it is distinct and this connection or distinct idea is the result of experiences.

Locke offers his theories about the mind that mind as the blank state, on which the experience writes. The modern empiricism idea has been developed by Bacon and Locke

LenKa [72]

Answer:

C. An external downward field is created or an external downward field is removed

Explanation:

As we can see that from the attached figure that the induced current would be counter clockwise. So the field occur because of induced current i.e. out of page. This represent that the current is induced in order to rise the flux out of the direction of the page

Therefore because of the external field, the field out of page & flux would be reducing or the external upward field is eliminated

So option C is correct

The speed of the rock at 20 m is 34.3 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of energy: the mechanical energy of the rock, sum of its potential energy + its kinetic energy) must be conserved in absence of air resistance. So we can write:

$U_i +K_i = U_f + K_f$
