A sample of gold has a mass of 38.6 grams and a volume of 2 cm3. What is the density of gold?
raketka [301]
Density is equal to mass divided by volume; that said, you would divide 38.6 by 2 to get your answer

"On a movie set, an alien spacecraft is to be lifted to a height of 32.0 m for use in a scene. The 260.0-kg spacecraft is attach
Lisa [10]

Answer:

<em>The time interval required to lift the spacecraft to this specified height is 123.94 seconds</em>

Explanation:

Height through which the spacecraft is to be lifted = 32.0 m

Mass of the spacecraft = 260.0 kg

Four crew member each pull with a power of 135 W

18.0% of the mechanical energy is lost to friction.

work done in this situation is proportional to the mechanical energy used to move the spacecraft up

work done = (weight of spacecraft) x (the height through which it is lifted)

but the weight of spacecraft = mg

where m is the mass,

and g is acceleration due to gravity 9.81 m/s

weight of spacecraft = 260 x 9.81 = 2550.6 N

work done on the space craft = weight x height

==> work = 2550.6 x 32 = 81619.2 J

this is equal to the mechanical energy delivered to the system

18.0% of this mechanical energy delivered to the pulley is lost to friction.

this means that

0.18 x 81619.2  = <em>14691.456 J  </em> is lost to friction.

Total useful mechanical energy =  81619.2 J - 14691.456 J = 66927.74<em> J</em>

Total power delivered by the crew to do this work = 135 x 4 = 540 W

But we know tat power is the rate at which work is done i.e

P = \frac{w}{t}

where p is the power

where w is the useful work done

t is the time taken to do this work

imputing values, we'll have

540 = 66927.74/t

t = 66927.74/540

time taken t = <em>123.94 seconds</em>

A force of 70 N is inclined at an angle
Bad White [126]

Answer:

The horizontal component of the 70 N force = 35·√3 N

The vertical component of the 70 N force = 35 N

Explanation:

The magnitude of the given force, F = 70 N

The angle of inclination of the given force to the horizontal, θ = 30°

By the resolution of forces, we can resolve the given force, F, into its horizontal component, Fₓ, and vertical components, F_y, as follows;

The horizontal component of the given force = Fₓ = F × cos(θ)

Substituting the values, we have;

The horizontal component of the 70 N force, Fₓ = 70 × cos(30°) = 35·√3 N

The vertical component of the given force = F_y = F × sin(θ)

Substituting the values, we have;

The vertical component of the 70 N force, F_y = 70 × sin(30°) = 35 N.
