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

A person in the passenger basket of a hot-air balloon throws a ball horizontally outward from the basket with a speed of 10.0 m/
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

balloon is rising with a speed of u_y=6\ m/s

Person throws a ball out of basket with a horizontal velocity of u_x=10\ m/s

Considering upward direction to be positive

When ball is thrown it has two velocity i.e. in upward direction and in horizontal direction so net velocity is

v_{net}=\sqrt{(u_x)^2+(u_y)^2}

v_{net}=\sqrt{(6)^2+(10)^2}

v_{net}=\sqrt{36+100}

v_{net}=\sqrt{136}

v_{net}=11.66\ m/s

Direction of velocity

\tan \theta =\dfrac{u_y}{u_x}

\tan \theta =\dfrac{6}{10}

\theta =30.96^{\circ}

where \theta is angle made by net velocity with horizontal .
