What two factors determine the density of water in deep currents?

Physics
1 answer:
Alecsey [184]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

There are two main factors that makeocean water more or less dense than about 1027 kg/m3: the temperature of the water and the salinity of the water.Ocean water gets more dense as temperature goes down. So, the colder the water, the more dense it is. Increasing salinity also increases thedensity of sea water.

a driver travels 135 km, east in 1.5 h, stops for 45 minutes for lunch, and then resumes driving for the next 2.0 h through a di
daser333 [38]

Answer:

v = 98.75 km/h

Explanation:

Given,

The distance driver travels towards the east, d₁ = 135 km

The time period of the travel, t₁ = 1.5 h

The halting time, tₓ = 46 minutes

The distance driver travels towards the east, d₂ = 215 km

The time period of the travel, t₁ = 2 h

The average speed of the vehicle before stopping

                                    v₁ = d₁/t₁

                                        = 135/1.5

                                       = 90 km/h

The average speed of vehicle after stopping

                                    v₂ = d₂/t₂

                                         = 215/2

                                        = 107.5 km/h

The total average velocity of the driver

                                      v = (v₁ +v₂) /2

                                         = (90 + 107.5)/2

                                         = 98.75 km/h

Hence, the average velocity of the driver, v = 98.75 km/h

A textbook of mass 2.05 kg rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A cord attached to the book passes over a pulley whose d
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

a. 7.38 N b. 40.87 N c. 0.113 kg-m²

Explanation:

a. Let T be the tension in the cord. For the textbook, T = ma since no other force acts on it and it is an horizontal force, and m = mass = 2.05 kg and a = acceleration. We find the acceleration from s = ut + 1/2at² where u = initial speed = 0 (since it starts from rest),  s = distance moved = 1.30 m and t = time = 0.850 s.

Substituting these values into s,

1.30 m = 0 × 0.850 + 1/2a × 0.850² = 0 + 0.36125a

1.30 = 0.36125a

a = 1.30/0.36125 = 3.6 m/s²

Substituting this into T, we have

T = ma = 2.05 kg × 3.6 m/s² = 7.38 N

b.  Let T be the tension in the cord attached to the book. The book has the only vertical forces acting on it as the tension, T(acting upwards) and its weight mg (acting downwards). So the net force acting on it is

T - mg = ma

T = m(a + g)

substituting a = 3.6 m/s² and g = 9.8 m/s² and m = 3.05 kg

T = 3.05(3.6 + 9.8) = 3.05 × 13.4 = 40.87 N

c. Since the tangential acceleration of the pulley is also the acceleration of the masses, the a = rα where r = radius of pulley = 0.200 m/2 = 0.100 m and α = angular acceleration of the pulley.

α = a/r = 3.6 m/s² ÷ 0.100 m = 36 rad/s²

Now, the torque on the pulley τ = Tr = Iα where I = moment of inertia of pulley about its rotational axis and T = tension in cord attached to book and r = radius of pulley = 0.200 m/2 = 0.100 m

From the equation above, I = Tr/α

Substituting the variables we have

I = 40.87 N × 0.100 m ÷ 36 rad/s² = 0.113 kg-m²
