Explanation:

The force between two charges is given by :

$F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}$

k is electrostatic constant

r is distance between charges

The force between charges is directly proportional to the product of charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

You, Archimedes, suspect that the king’s crown is not solid gold but is instead gold-plated lead. To test your theory, you weigh

hjlf

Answer:

a) 16675.75 Kg/m³ b) 77.6%

Explanation:

the weight of the crown = 60 N, density of gold = 19300 Kg/m^3, density of lead = 11340 kg/m^3, density of water = 1000kg/m^3 and acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s^2

upthrust on the crown = weight in air - weight when fully submerged in water = 60 - 56.4 = 3.6 N

mass of water displaced = 3.6 / 9.8 since weight = mass × g

mass of water displaced = 0.367 Kg

density of water = mass / volume

1000 = 0.367 / volume

cross multiply and find volume

volume of the crown = 0.367 / 1000 = 0.000367 m³ since the crown will displace water of equal volume according to Archimedes principle

Let V1 represent the volume of Gold and let V2 represent the volume of lead

Total volume of the crown = V1 + V2

also

density of gold = mass of gold / V1 and density of lead = mass of lead / V2

19300 = mass of gold in the crown / V1 and 11340 = mass of lead in the crown / V2

19300 V1 = mass of gold and 11340 V2 = mass of lead

add the two together

19300 V1 + 11340 V2 = weigth of the crown / 9.8

19300 V1 + 11340 V2 = 6.12 also

V1 + V2 = 0.000367

make V1 subject of the formula in equation 2

V1 = 0.000367 - V2

substitute for V1 in equation 1

19300 (0.000367 - V2) + 11340 V2 = 6.12

open the bracket

7.083 - 19300 V2 + 11340 V2 = 6.12

rearrange the equation

-7960 V2 = 6.12 - 7.083

-7960 V2 = -0.963

V2 = -0.963 / -7960 = 0.000121 (volume of lead in the crown)

substitute V2 into equation 2

V1 + 0.000121 = 0.000367m³

V1 = 0.000367 - 0.000121 = 0.000246m³ (volume of gold in the crown)

so mass of gold in the crown = 19300 × 0.000246 = 4.748 kg

and mass of lead = 11340 × 0.000121 = 1.372 kg

average density of the crown = (mass of gold + mass of lead) / total volume = 6.12 / 0.000367 = 16675.75 kg/ m³

b) percentage make of gold = mass of gold / total mass × 100 = 77.6 % approx

Which action might lead scientists to develop new explanations about the

sweet [91]

Answer:

The correct option is;

B. Designing experiments to replicate the conditions in which life may have first evolved on Earth

Explanation:

The proof to the hypothesis that life originated from inanimate inorganic, or non-living molecules which is an explanation for the origin of life on Earth was provided by an experiment designed and performed in 1953 by Stanley L. Miller and Harold C. Urey which consisted of using chemicals proposed in the hypothesis and combining them through a specific design process to replicate expected atmospheric condition before the life began on Earth.

With such successful design of experiments to replicate the conditions in which life may have first evolved on Earth, it was possible to better explain the hypothesis that life originated from inorganic molecule.

A bag containing 0ºC ice is much more effective in absorbing energy than one containing the same amount of 0ºC water.

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

No temperature change occurs from heat transfer if ice melts and becomes liquid water (i.e., during a phase change). For example, consider water dripping from icicles melting on a roof warmed by the Sun. Conversely, water freezes in an ice tray cooled by lower-temperature surroundings.

Explanation:

Energy is required to melt a solid because the cohesive bonds between the molecules in the solid must be broken apart such that, in the liquid, the molecules can move around at comparable kinetic energies; thus, there is no rise in temperature. Similarly, energy is needed to vaporize a liquid, because molecules in a liquid interact with each other via attractive forces. There is no temperature change until a phase change is complete. The temperature of a cup of soda initially at 0ºC stays at 0ºC until all the ice has melted. Conversely, energy is released during freezing and condensation, usually in the form of thermal energy. Work is done by cohesive forces when molecules are brought together. The corresponding energy must be given off (dissipated) to allow them to stay together Figure 2.

The energy involved in a phase change depends on two major factors: the number and strength of bonds or force pairs. The number of bonds is proportional to the number of molecules and thus to the mass of the sample. The strength of forces depends on the type of molecules. The heat Q required to change the phase of a sample of mass m is given by

Q = mLf (melting/freezing,

Q = mLv (vaporization/condensation),

where the latent heat of fusion, Lf, and latent heat of vaporization, Lv, are material constants that are determined experimentally.

Alika [10]

Answer:

Number of revolutions=1.532 revolutions

Explanation:

Given data

Distance s=8.0 m

Angular speed a=1.2 rev/s

To find

Number of revolutions

Solution

From the equation of simple motion we not that

$S=ut+1/2gt^{2}\\ where\\u=0\\So\\8.0m=0+(1/2)(9.8m/s^{2} )t^{2}\\ t^{2}=\frac{8.0m}{0.5*9.8m/s^{2} } \\ t^{2}=1.63\\t=\sqrt{1.63} \\t=1.28s$

So for the number of revolutions she makes is given as

$n=a*t\\n=(1.2rev/s)(1.28s)\\n=1.532revolutions$
