A massless, hollow sphere of radius R is entirely filled with a fluid such that its density is p. This same hollow sphere is now

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

a. 8p

Explanation:

We are given that

Radius of hollow sphere , R1=R

Density of hollow sphere= $\rho$

After compress

Radius of hollow sphere, R2=R/2

We have to find density of the compressed sphere.

We know that

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

$Mass=Density\times volume=Constant$

Therefore, $\rho_1 V_1=\rho_2V_2$

Volume of sphere= $\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

Using the formula

$\rho\times \frac{4}{3}\pi R^3=\rho_2\times \frac{4}{3}\pi (R/2)^3$

$\rho R^3=\rho_2\times \frac{R^3}{8}$

$\rho_2=8\rho$

Hence, the density of the compressed sphere= $8\rho$

Option a is correct.

A small 20-kg canoe is floating downriver at a speed of 2 m/s. What is the canoe’s kinetic energy? A. 40 J B. 80 J C. 18 J

rusak2 [61]

A small 20-kg canoe is floating downriver at a speed of 2 m/s. 40 J is the canoe’s kinetic energy.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

The given canoe has the mass and is being given to move at a speed. Therefore the kinetic energy of the canoe can be calculated using the following method,

Given that mass of the canoe = 20 kg and its speed =1 m/s

As we know that the Kinetic energy has the formula,

$\text {Kinetic energy}=\frac{1}{2} \boldsymbol{m} \boldsymbol{v}^{2}$

Therefore, substituting the value into the equation, we get,

$K . E .=\frac{1}{2} \times 20 \times 2^{2}$ = 40 J

What is the frequency of an x- ray if the wavelength is 4.5 E - 10m?

AnnZ [28]

V (speed) = F (frequency) x Wavelength
If we rearrange the formula, making frequency the subject;
F (frequency) = Speed ÷ Wavelength
F = 300,000 m\s x 4.5 e -10m
F = 0.08810409956 Hz
