Answer:

mass

Explanation:

The density of a substance is defined as the ratio of mass of the substance to the volume of the substance.

It is a scalar quantity.

$Density = \frac{mass}{volume}$

Its SI unit is kg/m^3.

By comparing the densities we get the idea about how dense the substance is.

For example, cotton and iron, the density of cotton is much less than iron so the cotton is less dense than iron.

The relative density is defined as the ratio of density of substance to the density of water at 4 degree C.

The density of water is maximum at 4 degree C.

remember
p= m/v where v is vol, m is mass and p is density

A dockworker applies a constant horizontal force of 80.0 N to a block of ice on a smooth horizontal floor. The frictional force

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

(a) 91 kg (2 s.f.) (b) 22 m

Explanation:

Since it is stated that a constant horizontal force is applied to the block of ice, we know that the block of ice travels with a constant acceleration and but not with a constant velocity.

(a)

$s \ = \ ut \ + \ \displaystyle\frac{1}{2} at^{2} \\ \\ a \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{2(s \ - \ ut)}{t^{2}} \\ \\ a \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{2(11 \ - \ 0)}{5^{2}} \\ \\ a \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{22}{25} \\ \\ a \ = \ 0.88 \ \mathrm{m \ s^{-2}}$

Subsequently,

$F \ = \ ma \\ \\ m \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{F}{a} \\ \\ m \ = \ \displaystyle\frac{80 \ \mathrm{kg \ m \ s^{-2}}}{0.88 \ \mathrm{m \ s^{-2}}} \\ \\ m \ = \ 91 \mathrm{kg} \ \ \ \ \ \ (2 \ \mathrm{s.f.})$

*Note that the equations used above assume constant acceleration is being applied to the system. However, in the case of non-uniform motion, these equations will no longer be valid and in turn, calculus will be used to analyze such motions.

(b) To find the final velocity of the ice block at the end of the first 5 seconds,

$v \ = \ u \ + \ at \\ \\ v \ = \ 0 \ + \ (0.88 \mathrm{m \ s^{-2}})(5 \ \mathrm{s}) \\ \\ v \ = \ 4.4 \ \mathrm{m \ s^{-1}}$

According to Newton's First Law which states objects will remain at rest

or in uniform motion (moving at constant velocity) unless acted upon by

an external force. Hence, the block of ice by the end of the first 5

seconds, experiences no acceleration (a = 0) but travels with a constant

velocity of 4.4 $m \ s^{-1}$ .

$s \ = \ ut \ + \ \displaystyle\frac{1}{2}at^{2} \\ \\ s \ = \ (4.4 \ \mathrm{m \ s^{-2}})(5 \ \mathrm{s}) \ + \ \displaystyle\frac{1}{2}(0)(5^{2}) \\ \\ s \ = \ 22 \ \mathrm{m}$

Therefore, the ice block traveled 22 m in the next 5 seconds after the

worker stops pushing it.

Kaylis [27]

<span>You are given a QL = -26 μC charge that is placed on the x-axis at x = - 0.2 m and a QR = 26 μC charge that is placed at x = +0.2 m. The answers are:

The x-component of the electric field at x = 0 m and y = 0.2 m is 3.
The y-component of the electric field at x = 0 m and y = 0.2 m is 2.

An unbalanced force gives a 2.00 kg mass an acceleration of 5.00 m/s? What is the force applied to the object?

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

10N

Explanation:

Equation: ΣF = ma

Fapp = ma

Fapp = (2kg)(5m/s^2) (im guessing you mean 5.00 m/s^2 not m/s)

Fapp = 10*kg*m/s^2

Fapp = 10N
