A straightforward method of finding the density of an object is to measure its mass and then measure its volume by submerging it

in a graduated cylinder. What is the density (in g/cm3) of a 220g rock that displaces 75.0 cm3 of water

Answer: 2.9 g/cm^{3}

Explanation:

from the question we are given the following:

mass of rock = 220 g

volume of displaced water = 75 cm^{3}

the density of an object is gotten from the formula density = \frac{mass}{volume}

From the question, we were given the mass of a rock and volume of water the rock displaces.

When water is placed in a graduated cylinder and a rock is placed in the water, the volume of water the rock displaces is the increase in the reading of water after the rock has been put in it. The amount of water displaced is known as the volume of the rock.

therefore volume of the rock = volume of water displaced

density = \frac{220}{75} = 2.9 g/cm^{3}

1.47x10^5 Joules  
The gravitational potential energy will be the mass of the object, multiplied by the height upon which it can drop, multiplied by the local gravitational acceleration. And since it started at the top of a 60.0 meter hill, halfway will be at 30.0 meters. So  
500 kg * 30.0 m * 9.8 m/s^2 = 147000 kg*m^2/s^ = 147000 Joules.  
Using scientific notation and 3 significant figures gives 1.47x10^5 Joules.

What is escape velocity ​
DanielleElmas [232]
Escape velocity is the speed that an object needs to be traveling to break free of a planet or moon's gravity well and leave it without further propulsion. For example, a spacecraft leaving the surface of Earth needs to be going 7 miles per second, or nearly 25,000 miles per hour to leave without falling back to the surface or falling into orbit.

__________ is a developmental defect in which a portion of the spinal cord protrudes outside the vertebrae.
7nadin3 [17]

Answer: Spina bifida

Explanation:

Spina bifida is a developmental defect in which a portion of the spinal cord protrudes outside the vertebrae.

Spina bifida is a birth defect that occurs when there is improper formation of the spine and spinal cord. It's a type of neural tube defect. The structure in a developing embryo that eventually becomes the baby's brain, spinal cord and the tissues that enclose them is the neutral tube.
