Answer:

101.32 rounded to 1 significant figure is 100. 20.1234 rounded to one significant figure is 20, and 212.1 rounded to one significant figure is 200.

100 + 20 is 120, and 120 - 200 is -80.

A ball has a diameter of 3.77 cm and average density of 0.0839 g/cm3. What force is required to hold it completely submerged und

mestny [16]

Answer:

0.25 N

Explanation:

The density of the ball ( $\rho_b$ ) = 0.0839 g/cm³ = 83.9 kg/m³

The density of water ( $\rho_w$ ) = 1000 kg/m³

diameter = 3.77 cm = 0.0377 m

radius of ball = 0.0377/2 = 0.01885 m

The volume (V) = $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3=\frac{4}{3}*\pi*0.01885^3=2.8*10^{-5}\ m^3$

Let us assume the acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Hence:

The force is required to hold it completely submerged under water (F) is:

$F=\rho_w Vg-\rho_b Vg=1000*(2.8*10^{-5})*9.81-83.9*(2.8*10^{-5})*9.81\\\\$

F = 0.25 N

Suppose you wish to fabricate a uniform wire from a mass m of a metal with density rhom and resistivity rho. If the wire is to h

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Resistivity and resistance are proportional and depends of the length and the cross-sectional area of the wire:

$R=\frac{L}{A}\rho$

furthermore, the density is the mass divided by the volume, and the volume can be written as the area multiplyed by the length:

$\rho_m=\frac{m}{A*L}$

Now you have tw equations and two variables, so you can solve for each of them.

first, solve for A in both equations and replace them:

$\frac{L}{R}\rho=\frac{m}{\rho_mL}$

$L^2=\frac{mR}{\rho_m \rho} \\L=$

now replace this into any of the previous equiations:

$R=\frac{\sqrt{\frac{mR}{\rho_m \rho} } \rho}{A} \\A=\sqrt{\frac{mR\rho^2}{\rho_m \rho R^2} }\\A=\sqrt{\frac{m\rho}{\rho_m R} }$

If you assume the wire has circular cross-sectional area, then the area is:

$A=\pi(\frac{d}{2} )^2$

solving for d:

$d=2\sqrt{\frac{A}{\pi} }$

replacing A and simplifying:

$d=2 \sqrt[4]{\frac{m\rho}{\rho_m R \pi^2} }$

Edit: You do mean Ridge?

Rocks near Mid-Ocean Ridge are younger than rocks near the trenches.

Seismic data shows oceanic crust is sinking into the mantle at the trenches.

Matching bands of magnetic rock are found on either side of the Ridge. Earth's magnetic fields change these bands over time.
