A student in an undergraduate physics lab is studying Archimede's principle of bouyancy. The student is given a brass cylinder a

nd, using a triple beam balance, finds the mass to be 3.21 kg. The density of this particular alloy of brass is 8.62 g/cm 3 . The student ties a massless string to one end of the cylinder and submerges it into a tank of water where there is an apparent reduction in the weight of the cylinder. With this information, calculate the volume, V , of the cylinder and the tension, T , in the string when it is submerged in the tank of water. The density of water is 1.00 g/cm 3 , and the acceleration due to gravity is gVolume of the cylinder: _____ cm3Tension in the string: ______ N

Answer:

V = 0.3724 m³

T = 27.836 N

Explanation:

Given :

m = 3.21 kg  , W= 3.21 * 9.81 m / s² = 31.4901 N

ρ = 8.62 g / cm ³  = 8620 kg / m³

V = m / ρ =  3.21 kg  /  8620 kg / m³

V = 0.3724 m³

when submerged the weight of brass cylinder is equal to the tension in string:

F =  (0.3724m³) * (1000 kg / m³) * (9.81 m/s²²) = 3.653 ≈ 3.65 N

T = 31.4901 N - 3.65 N  

T = 27.836 N

The resultant of 2 forces at right angles is 100 lbs. If one of the forces makes an angle of 30 degress with the resultant, comp
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

86.6 lbs

Explanation:

Let the force is X.

Resultant force, R = 100 lbs

Other force is Y. Angle between resultant force and force X is 30°.

According to the diagram

Cos30=\frac{X}{R}

0.866=\frac{X}{100}

X = 86.6 lbs

Other force Y

Sin30=\frac{X}{R}

0.5=\frac{Y}{100}

Y = 50 lbs

Which one of the following environments will sound not travel through?
Eduardwww [97]
The answer is d. Vacuum

Sound waves need a molecul to travel through. Gas , solid, annd liquid provide that medium.

But vacuum is just an empty space withour any moleculs in it.

Thats why in space, no one can hear you scream. Because it simply not physicsly possible

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

Structure Of The Atom: Our current model of the atom can be broken down into three constituents parts – protons, neutron, and electrons. Each of these parts has an associated charge, with protons carrying a positive charge, electrons having a negative charge, and neutrons possessing no net charge.
