Answer:

buoyant force on the block due to the water= 10 N

Explanation:

We know that

buoyant force(F_B) on a block= weight of the block in air (actual weight) - weight of block in water.

Given:

A block of metal weighs 40 N in air and 30 N in water.

F_B =  40-30= 10 N

therefore,  buoyant force on the block due to the water= 10 N

Answer:

10 N

Explanation:

We are given that

Weight of block of metal in air=40 N

Actual weight of object=Weight of object in air

Actual weight of block of metal=40 N

Apparent weight of block of metal=Weight of block in water

Weight of block in water=30 N

Apparent weight of block=30 N

Density of water=1000 kg /cubic meter

We have to find the buoyant force on the block due to water.

Buoyant force=Actual weight-apparent weight

Buoyant force on the block due to water=40-30=10 N

Hence, the buoyant force on the block due to the  water=10 N

Question 20 (4 points)
irinina [24]

Explanation:

C is correct.

Newton second law states that force is directly proportional to acceleration with m being the constant of variation.

f _{net} = m(a)

So

250 = 50(a)

a = 5

A is wrong, the constant g only happens in free fall or in vertical direction

B and D are wrong due to the mathematical error or equation error

If the solar system shrank so that the sun were located just one centimeter from Earth, about how far away could you find the ne
DedPeter [7]
E                  S                                                               *

The "E" represents Earth, "S" represent Sun, and the "*" represents the nearest star(which is Proxima Centauri).

The main thing to worry about here is units, so ill label everything out.
D'e,s'(Distance between earth and sun) = .<span>00001581 light years
D'e,*'(Distance between earth and Proxima) = </span><span>4.243 light years

Now this is where it gets fun, we need to put all the light years into centimeters.(theres alot)
In one light year, there are </span>9.461 * 10^17 centimeters.(the * in this case means multiplication) or 946,100,000,000,000,000 centimeters.

To convert we multiply the light years we found by the big number.
D'e,s'(Distance between earth and sun) = 1.496 * 10^13 centimeters<span>
D'e,*'(Distance between earth and Proxima) = </span><span>4.014 * 10^18 centimeters
</span>
Now we scale things down, we treat 1.496 * 10^13 centimeters as a SINGLE centimeter, because that's the distance between the earth and the sun. So all we have to do is divide (4.014 * 10^18 ) by (<span>1.496 * 10^13 ).
Why? because that how proportions work.

As a result, you get a mere 268335.7 centimeters.

To put that into perspective, that's only about 1.7 miles

A lot of my numbers came from google, so they are estimations and are not perfect, but its hard to be on really large scales.</span>

What is the oscillation period of your eardrum when you are listening to the A4 note on a piano (frequency 440 Hz)?
Contact [7]

The period is the inverse of the frequence:

T=\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{440}=0.0022\overline{72}
