Legend says that archimedes, in determining whether or not the king’s crown was made of pure gold, measured its volume by the wa

ter displacement method. if the crown weighs 600 gm in air, what would its "weight be in water", necessary to prove that it is pure gold?

The volume of water that is displaced by the crown is equal to the volume of the crown so by measuring the displaced water volume one can simply determine the density of the crown which is it's mass divided by its volume. if it's not equal to 19.32 per cubic centimeters (which is the density of the pure gold) we can conclude that it has impurities

A 4,000 kg truck is moving at +10 m/s hits a 1500 kg parked car which moves off at +10 m/s. What is the velocity of the truck
Igoryamba

Answer:

10m/s

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentums

M1u1+m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

Substitute.

4000(10)+1500(10) = (4000+1500)v

40,000+15,000 = 5,500v

55000 = 5500v

v = 55000/5500

v= 10m/s

Hence the velocity of the truck after Collision is 10m/s

Answer:

ω = 0.1 rad/s

v = 0.002 m/s

Explanation:

The angular velcoity of the second hand of the clock can be found by:

ω = θ/t

where,

ω = Angular Speed

θ = Angular Displacement

t = time taken

Now, for one complete revolution of second hand of the clock:

θ = 2π rad

t = 60 s

Therefore,

ω = 2π rad/60 s

<u>ω = 0.1 rad/s</u>

Now, for the linear speed (V):

V = rω

where,

V = Linear Speed of Second Hand = ?

r = radius = length of second hand = 0.02 m

Therefore,

V = (0.02 m)(0.1 rad/s)

<u>V = 0.002 m/s</u>

Which of the following accurately describes between distance and displacement
klasskru [66]

Distance is a scalar and displacement is a vector

Explanation:

Distance and displacement are two different quantities. Let's review them in detail:

  • Distance is a scalar quantity (only a number followed by unit). Distance represents the total length of the path covered by an object during its motion. Therefore, it does not take into account the direction of motion, in its calculation.
  • Displacement is a vector quantity, so it has a magnitude, a unit and a direction. Displacement is a vector connecting the initial position to the final position of the motion of an object. Therefore, in its calculation, the direction of motion must be taken into account.

Let's see an example in order to understand distance and displacement better.

Imagine a person moving 5 meters forward and then 2 meters backward. In this case:

  • The distance covered by the man is just the total lenght of the path covered, therefore: 5 + 2 = 7 meters
  • The displacement of the man is the distance between the initial and final position. Since the man moved 5 m forward and 2 m backward, his final position is 3 meters forward, therefore the displacement is 3 m in the forward direction.

Determine the centripetal force on a vehicle rounding a circular curve with a radius of 80 m at a constant speed of 90 km/h if t
quester [9]
Mass of the vehicle = 2000 kg
Velocity of the vehicle = 90 km/hr
                                   = 25 m/s
Radius of the curve = 80 m
Then
Centripetal force = [2000 * (25)^2]/80
                            = (2000 * 625)/80
                            = 15625 kg m/s
                            = 15625 Newton second
