The acceleration of gravity depends on the distance from
the center of the Earth.  We use 9.8 m/s² for any place that's
on the Earth's surface, or reasonably close.  The 11.5 meters
down into the well certainly qualifies.

The formula we want is: 

                          Distance of fall = (1/2) · (acceleration) · (time)²

                                  11.5 m      = (1/2) (9.8 m/s²) (time)²

Divide each side
by  4.9 m/s² :            (11.5m) / (4.9 m/s²)  =  time²

                                         2.347 sec²        =  time²

                                   time = √(2.347 sec²)  =   1.53 seconds  .

The density of the metal is twice the density of liquid since acceleration, a is half of accelerating due to gravity, g.

<h3>What is the relationship between acceleration and density?</h3>

For a solid falling through a viscous fluid, the acceleration of the object decreases until it attains terminal velocity.

The acceleration of the body increases with increase in density of the solid.

When density of solid = density of liquid, acceleration a = g

When density of solid = 2 × density of the liquid, acceleration a = g/2.

Therefore, the density of the metal is twice the density of liquid since acceleration, a is half of accelerating due to gravity, g.

How are electricity and magnets connected?
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Magnets are employed to generate electricity.

Explanation:

Magnets' characteristics are employed to generate electricity. Electrons are pulled and pushed by moving magnetic fields. When you move a magnet around a coil of wire, or a coil of wire around a magnet, the electrons in the wire are pushed out and an electrical current is created.
