Which part of the iceberg displaces water equal in weight to the buoyant force

2 answers:

6 0

Whoa ! Wait a second. The weight of the displaced water
is ALWAYS equal to the buoyant force.

In the case of a floating object ... whether it's an iceberg or
a dead fly ... the part that's under the surface is the part that's
displacing water.

The bit that's below the sea level = most of it = part of the reason why the Titanic was "holed below the water line" and thus doomed to sink. Most of a berg is below the water line.

An old light bulb draws only 54.3 W, rather than its original 60.0 W, due to evaporative thinning of its filament. By what facto

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The factor of the diameter is 0.95.

Explanation:

Given that,

Power of old light bulb = 54.3 W

Power = 60 W

We know that,

The resistance is inversely proportional to the diameter.

$R\propto\dfrac{1}{D}$

The power is inversely proportional to the resistance.

$P\propto\dfrac{1}{R}$

$P\propto D^2$

We need to calculate the factor of the diameter of the filament reduced

Using relation of power and diameter

$\dfrac{P_{i}}{P_{f}}=\dfrac{D_{i}^2}{D_{f}^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{D_{i}^2}{D_{f}^2}=\dfrac{54.3}{60}$

$\dfrac{D_{i}}{D_{f}}=0.95$

$D_{i}=0.95 D_{f}$

Hence, The factor of the diameter is 0.95.

A hotel elevator ascends 200m with maximum speed of 5m/s. Its acceleration and deceleration both have a magnitude of 1.0m/s2. Pa

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

45 s .

Explanation:

The accelerator will first accelerate , then move with uniform velocity and at last it will decelerate to rest .

displacement s = ?

acceleration a = 1 m /s²

Final speed v = 5 m/s

initial speed u = 0

v² = u² + 2as

5² = 0 + 2 x 1 x s

s = 12.5 m

B) Let time of acceleration or deceleration be t

v = u + a t

5 = 0 + 1 t

t = 5 s

Similarly displacement during deceleration = 12.5 m

Total distance during uniform motion = 200 - ( 12.5 + 12.5 ) = 175 m .

velocity of uniform motion = 5 m /s

time during which there was uniform velocity = 175 / 5 = 35 s

Total time = 5 + 35 + 5 = 45 s .

A block of mass 1.5 hangs at the of end of a weight cord suspended from the ceiling.what is the tension in the cord, and with wh

Len [333]

The tension in the cord is 14.7 N and the force of pull of the cord is 14.7 N, assuming the block is stationary.

<h3>What is the tension in the cord?</h3>

The tension in the cord is calculated as follows;

T = ma + mg

where;

a is the acceleration of the block
g is acceleration due to gravity
m is mass of the block

T = m(a + g)

T = 1.5(a + 9.8)

T = 1.5a + 14.7

Thus, the tension in the cord is (1.5a + 14.7) N.

If the block is at rest, the tension is 14.7 N.

<h3>Force of the force</h3>

The force with which the cord pulls is equal to the tension in the cord

F = T = m(a + g)

F = (1.5a + 14.7) N

If the block is stationary, a = 0, the tension and force of pull of the cord = 14.7 N.

Thus, the tension in the cord is 14.7 N and the force of pull of the cord is 14.7 N, assuming the block is stationary.
