Answer:

Box A

Explanation:

Let mass of each wooden box =m

Density of box A=\rho_A

Density of box B =\rho_B

\rho_A

Density,\rho=\frac{m}{V}

V_A=\frac{m}{\rho_A}

V_B=\frac{m}{\rho_B}

Density of inversely proportional to volume.

The volume of box with smaller density is larger than the volume of box with large density.

V_A>V_B

When the boxes are submerged under water.

Then, the buoyant force=\rho_l Vg

Where V=Volume of displace fluid.

\rho=Density of fluid

Buoyant force of box A=\rho_lV_Ag

Buoyant force of box  B=\rho_lV_Bg

Force=Buoyant force

ma_A=\rho_lV_Ag

ma_B=\rho_lV_Bg

Acceleration is directly proportional to volume.

Therefore,the box with large volume has greater acceleration.

Hence, the box A has greater acceleration.

Answer:

Explanation:

Let boxes A and B has equal mass of M and volume be Va and Vb

their density be da and db

given da < db

M / Va < M/Vb

Va> Vb

Buoyant force on box A in water = weight of displaced water

= volume of displaced water x density of water x g

= Va x d x g , d is density of water

Aa  = acceleration on box A

= buoyant force on A  / mass of A  

= Va x d x g / M

Similarly acceleration on box B

Ab = Va x d x g / M

Since Va > Vb

Aa > Ab

So box A will have greater acceleration.

What is the 5 quantitative research problems?<br>​
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

There are four main types of Quantitative research: Descriptive, Correlational, Causal-Comparative/Quasi-Experimental, and Experimental Research. attempts to establish cause- effect relationships among the variables. These types of design are very similar to true experiments, but with some key differences.

Explanation:

Quantitative research is defined as a systematic investigation of phenomena by gathering quantifiable data and performing statistical, mathematical, or computational techniques.

The maximum number of orbits in an atom is _____
svp [43]

Correct answer is:

<h2>The maximum number of orbits in an atom is <u>Seven.</u></h2><h3>Explanation:</h3>

Every energy level has a limited one orbital including two electrons. The orbits are settled in the sub-levels and there can be further than 1 sub-level as the number of energy levels rises. On energy level 1, there is 1 sub-level and 1 orbital. Energy level 2 can possess 2 sub-levels and 2 orbitals. These remain to develop as you progress from the nucleus of the atom, closing up with an infinite potential number of levels and orbits.

What happens to the current as we increase the amount of stepping of our transformer? Does this help explain why the primary was
matrenka [14]

Answer:

Current will decrease.

Explanation:

When we increase the number of stepping in transformer, the voltage will increase as its is directly proportional to the number of turn of stepping. Thus as the voltage will increase, current will decrease. As per the equation of ideal transformer,   E1 / E2 = I2 / I1

E1 and E2 are the voltages in primary and secondary winding and I1 and I2 are the current.

As the number of turns will be increased more inevitable losses will be generated that dissipates heat thus warming the primary.

Though the conservation of energy is obeyed but losses occur in this scenario hence step-up transformers cannot be used to create free energy.

a grape and apple and a watermelon are arranged at the corners of a triangle so that each piece of fruit is three meters away fr
777dan777 [17]
-- There are three pairs of mass with gravitational forces between them.

-- The distances between the masses are the same for each pair.

-- The only other quantity that determines the strength of the gravitational
force is the product of the masses.

-- The product of the masses is greatest for the apple and the watermelon,
so the strength of the gravitational force between them is the greatest.
