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

Write down Newton's second law in terms of momentum and acceleration. Write down this law in the form of differential equation (
svetoff [14.1K]

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied unbalanced force. The mathematical expression is given by:

F=\dfrac{d(mv)}{dt}

Where

F is the applied force

m is the mass of the object

v is the velocity with which it is moving

F=m\dfrac{dv}{dt}

Momentum of a particle is given by the product of mass and velocity as :

p=mv

Hence, this is the required solution.

What do the arrows in this photograph represent
babunello [35]

Answer: D. An action-reaction force pair

Explanation: When you sit in your chair, your body exerts a downward force on the chair and the chair exerts an upward force on your body. There are two forces resulting from this interaction - a force on the chair and a force on your body. Another example would be a person pushing against a wall (action force), and the wall exerts an equal and opposite force against the person.

Yall have helped a lot i just need help on this then ill be done for a while
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

f(x)=a(x - h)2 + k

Much like a linear function, k works like b in the slope-intercept formula. Like where add or subtract b would determine where the line crosses, in the linear, k determines the vertex of the parabola. If you're going to go up 2, then you need to add 2.

The h determines the movement horizontally. what you put in h determines if it moves left or right. To adjust this, you need to find the number to make the parentheses equal 0 when x equals -2 (because moving the vertex point to the left means subtraction/negatives):

x - h = 0

-2 - h = 0

-h = 2

h = -2

So the function ends up looking like:

f(x)=a(x - (-2))2 + 2

Subtracting a negative cancels the signs out to make a positive:

f(x)=a(x + 2)2 + 2Explanation:

PLEASE HELP!!!! The displacement vectors A and B, when added together, give the resultant vector R, so that R = A + B. Use the d
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Ax = 0

Ay = 6 m

Bx = 8 cos phi = cos 34 = 6.63 m

By = 8 sin phi = 8 sin (-34) = -4.47 m

Rx = Ax + Bx = 0 + 6.63 = 6.63 m

Ry = Ay + By = 6 - 4.47 = 1.53 m

R = (6.63^2 + 1.53^2)^1/2 = 6.80 m

tan theta = Ry / Rx = 1.53 / 6.8 = ,225

theta = 12.7 deg
