What makes a submarine dive?

Physics
1 answer:
sineoko [7]3 years ago
8 0

Letting water into its tanks, and letting it push air out, increases the density of the submarine.  Once its density becomes greater than 1 (the density of the water it's floating in), it starts to sink.  

The more water is let into the tanks, the greater the sub's density becomes, and the faster it sinks ... (it becomes more like a rock).

Find the work w1 done on the block by the force of magnitude f1 = 75.0 n as the block moves from xi = -1.00 cm to xf = 3.00 cm .
MissTica
<span>The work done is 3.0 Nm. We can us the equation Work = Force * Distance, where Force = 75.0 N, and distance is xf – xi = 3.00 cm - -1.00 cm = 4.00 cm. Convert centimeters to meters by moving the decimal place to the left by two places to get 0.04 m. Plug these values into the Work equation: Work = Force * Distance Work = 75.0 N * 0.04 m Work = 3.0 Nm</span>

Answer:

5 N right

Explanation:

Fx = 9N-4N

Fx = 5N

Since we can define the x and y axis. We have x to the right as positive.

How much work is done if you push a 200 N box across a floor with a force of 50 N for a distance of 20m
vovikov84 [41]
<h2>Answer: 1000 J</h2>

The Work W done by a Force F refers to the release of potential energy from a body that is moved by the application of that force to overcome a resistance along a path.  

It should be noted that it is a scalar magnitude, and its unit in the International System of Units is the Joule (like energy). Therefore, 1 Joule is the work done by a force of 1 Newton when moving an object, in the direction of the force, along 1 meter:  

1J=(1N)(1m)=Nm  

Now, when the applied force is constant and the direction of the force and the direction of the movement are parallel, the equation to calculate it is:  

W=(F)(d) (1)

When they are not parallel, both directions form an angle, let's call it \alpha. In that case the expression to calculate the Work is:  

W=Fdcos{\alpha} (2)

For example, in order to push the 200 N box across the floor, you have to apply a force along the distance d to overcome the resistance of the weight of the box (its 200 N).  

In this case both <u>(the force and the distance in the path) are parallel</u>, so the work W performed is the product of the force exerted to push the box F=50N by the distance traveled d. as shown in equation (1).

Hence:

W=(50N)(20m)  

W=1000Nm=1000J >>>>This is the work

A 5 kg ball is sitting on top of a hill. It has a Potential Energy of 6000J. What is the height of the ball?​
natali 33 [55]

Explanation:

mass=5 kg

potential energy=6000j

height=?

Now

potential energy =m.g.h

or 6000=5*9.8*h

or 6000=49h

or 6000÷49=h

or h= 122.45m
