(b) A piece of wood of volume 0.6 m² floats in water. Find the volume

Physics
1 answer:
enot [183]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the volume below water be v . Then

buoyant force = v d g where d is density of water , g is acceleration due to gravity

= v x 1000 x g

weight of wood piece = volume x density of wood x g

= .6 x 600 x g

for equilibrium while floating

buoyant force = weight

= v x 1000 x g  =  .6 x 600 x g

v = .36 m²

volume above water or volume exposed = .6 - .36

= .24 m²

When immersed completely ,

buoyant force = .6 x 1000 x 9.8

= 5880 N

weight of wood

=  .6 x 600 x g

= 3528 N

buoyant force is more than the weight . In order to equalise them for floating with full volume in water

weight required = 5880 - 3528

= 2352 N.

A particle with a charge of − 5.10 nC is moving in a uniform magnetic field of B⃗ =−( 1.20 T )k^. The magnetic force on the part
marta [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge q=-5.10nC

Magnetic field B= -1.2T k

And the magnetic force

F =−( 3.30×10−7N )i+( 7.60×10−7N )j

Let the velocity be V(xi + yj + zk)

Then, the force is given as

Note i×i=j×j×k×k=0

i×j=k. j×i=-k

j×k=i. k×j=-i

k×i=j. i×k=-j

F= q(v×B)

−( 3.30×10−7N )i+( 7.60×10−7N )j =

q(xi + yj + zk) × -1.2k

−( 3.30×10−7N )i+( 7.60×10−7N )j=

q( -1.2x i×k - 1.2y j×k - 1.2z k×k)

−( 3.30×10−7N )i+( 7.60×10−7N )j=

q( 1.2xj - 1.2y i )

−( 3.30×10−7N )i+( 7.60×10−7N )j=

q( -1.2y i + 1.2x j)

So comparing comparing coefficients

let compare x axis component

-( 3.30×10−7N )i=-1.2qy i

−3.30×10−7N = -1.2qy

y= -3.3×10^-7/-1.2q

y= -3.3×10^-7/-1.2×-5.10×10^-9)

y=-53.92m/s

Let compare y-axisaxis

7.6×10−7N j = 1.2qx j

7.6×10−7N = 1.2qx

x= 7.6×10^-7/-1.2q

x= 7.6×10^-7/1.2×-5.10×10^-9)

x=-124.18m/s

a. Then, the velocity of the x component is x= -124.18m/s

b. Also, the velocity component of the y axis is =-53.92m/s

c. We will compute

V•F

V=-124.18i -53.92j

F=−( 3.30×10−7 N )i+( 7.60×10−7 N )j

Note

i.j=j.i=0. Also i.i = j.j =1

V•F is

(-124.18i-53.92j)•−(3.30×10−7N)i+(7.60×10−7 N )j =

4.1×10^-5 - 4.1×10^-5=0

V•F=0

d. Angle between V and F

V•F=|V||F|Cosx

0=|V||F|Cos

Cosx=0

x= arccos(0)

x=90°

Since the dot product is zero, from vectors , if the dot product of two vectors is zero, then the vectors are perpendicular to each other

Can a falling object reach terminal velocity in outer space? Explain.
Damm [24]
Ith air resistance acting on an object that has been dropped, the object will eventually reach a terminal velocity, which is around 53 m/s (195 km/h or 122 mph) for a human skydiver. ... (On the Moon, the gravitational acceleration is much less than on Earth, approximately 1.6 m/s2.)
