Answer:

C. Sink until it reaches equilibrium and then remain at a constant depth.

Explanation:

An object immersed in a fluid experiences buoyant force. If the net buoyant force is greater than the net weigh of the object, the object will float.

If the net buoyant force is less than the net wight of the object, it will sink until a depth where the total weight of the object and the force due to the fluid above the object equals the net buoyant force at the bottom of the object (equilibrium), then the object remains at a constant depth.

kaheart [24]

To solve this exercise it is necessary to use the concepts related to Difference in Phase.

The Difference in phase is given by

$\Phi = \frac{2\pi \delta}{\lambda}$

Where

$\delta =$ Horizontal distance between two points

$\lambda =$ Wavelength

From our values we have,

$\lambda = 500nm = 5*10^{-6}m$

$\theta = 1\°$

The horizontal distance between this two points would be given for

$\delta = dsin\theta$

Therefore using the equation we have

$\Phi = \frac{2\pi \delta}{\lambda}$

$\Phi = \frac{2\pi(dsin\theta)}{\lambda}$

$\Phi = \frac{2\pi(5*!0^{-6}sin(1))}{500*10^{-9}}$

$\Phi= 1.096 rad \approx = 1.1 rad$

Therefore the correct answer is C.

Ixchelt burns her tongue when she takes a sip of hot coffee from her mug. Which part of this example represents heat?

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

"The thermal energy moving from her coffee to the tongue" represent the heat.

Here coffee is at high temperature while tongue is at low temperature, when Ixchelt tongue make contact with coffee then thermal energy of coffee is absorbed by tongue and tongue gets burned.

As heat always from high Potential to low that is why heat is absorbed by tongue.

If an object force of 50 N is used to move an object a distance of 20 m, what distance must the object be moved if the input for

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

$\ d_{out} = 100 \ m.$

Explanation:

Given data:

$F_{in} = 50 \ \rm N$

$F_{out} = 10 \ \rm N$

$d_{in} = 20 \ m$

Let the distance traveled by the object in the second case be $d_{out}.$

In the given problem, work done by the forces are same in both the cases.

Thus,

$W_{in} = W_{out}$

$F_{in}.d_{in} = F_{out}.d_{out}$

$\Rightarrow \ d_{out} = \frac{F_{in}.d_{in}}{F_{out}}$

$\ d_{out} = \frac{50 \times 20}{10}$

$\ d_{out} = 100 \ m.$

By what factor would your weight be multiplied if the earth were1/2 as massavise and the diameter was unchanged

Nutka1998 [239]

<span>Let F be the force of gravity, G be the gravitational constant, M be the mass of the earth, m your mass and r the radius of the earth, then:

F = G(Mm / (4(pi)*r^2))

The above expression gives the force that you feel on the earth's surface, as it is today!

Let us now double the mass of the earth and decrease its diameter to half its original size.

This is the same as replacing M with 2M and r with r/2.

Now the gravitational force (F' ) on the new earth's surface is given by:

F' = G(2Mm / (4(pi)(r/2)^2)) = 2G(Mm / ((1/4)*4(pi)*r^2)) = 8G(Mm / (4(pi)*r^2)) = 8F

So:

F' = 8F

This implies that the force that you would feel pulling you down (your weight) would increase by 800%!

You would be 8 times heavier on this "new" earth!</span>
