If you go to high you’ll run out of oxygen and possibly be blown off due to high winds.

Water ice has a density of 0.91 g/cm2, so it will float in liquid water. Imagine you have a cube of ice, 10 cm on a side. a. Wha

Reptile [31]

Answer:

(i) W = 8.918 N

(ii) $V = 9.1 \times 10^{-4} m^3$

(iii) d = 9.1 cm

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that weight of cube is given as

$W = mg$

$W = \rho V g$

here we know that

$\rho = 0.91 g/cm^3$

$Volume = L^3$

$Volume = 10^3 = 1000 cm^3$

now the mass of the ice cube is given as

$m = 0.91 \times 1000 = 910 g$

now weight is given as

$W = 0.910 \times 9.8 = 8.918 N$

Part b)

Weight of the liquid displaced must be equal to weight of the ice cube

Because as we know that force of buoyancy = weight of the of the liquid displaced

$W_{displaced} = 8.918 N$

So here volume displaced is given as

$\rho_{water}Vg = 8.918$

$1000(V)9.8 = 8.918$

$V = 9.1 \times 10^{-4} m^3$

Part c)

Let the cube is submerged by distance "d" inside water

So here displaced water weight is given as

$W = \rho_{water} (L^2 d) g$

$8.918 = 1000(0.10^2 \times d) 9.8$

$d = 0.091 m$

so it is submerged by d = 9.1 cm inside water

A 43.9-g piece of copper (CCu= 0.385 J/g°C) at 135.0°C is plunged into 254 g of water at 39.0°C. Assuming that no heat is lost t

Semmy [17]

Answer:

$T = 40.501\,^{\textdegree}C$

Explanation:

The interaction of the piece of copper and water means that the first one need to transfer heat in order to reach a thermal equilibrium with water. Then:

$-Q_{out,Cu} = Q_{in,H_{2}O}$

After a quick substitution, the expanded expression is:

$-(43.9\,g)\cdot (0.385\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} )\cdot (T-135^{\textdegree}C) = (254\,g)\cdot (4.187\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} )\cdot (T-39\,^{\textdegree}C)$
