The supporting force exerted by a fluid on an object immersed in it is called ______.
2 answers:
Answer:
buoyant force
Explanation:
The buoyant force is the pressure that is exerted on a immersed object by the surrounding fluid.
The buoyant force acts on the surface of the solid object even if the object is immersed in the fluid partially or completely. If the object is immersed in a fluid, the net force is given by the formula:
where Patm is the atmospheric pressure at the top of the object
pgh = pressure of the part in the fluid
F(bottom) is the upward force on the object
The net force is the same as the wight of the displaced object.
The principle is known as the Archimedes principle as the buoyant force is equals the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.

Answer:
The initial speed of the ball was 26.2 m/s
Explanation:
When the football player is in the air at his maximum height the vertical component of velocity is zero, To obtain the horizontal velocity when the player catches the ball we need to apply the linear momentum conservation theorem:
we need to obtain the time taken to go down.
We have a horizontal displacement and the time taken to stop, so:
so:
Answer:
a) 24.43 radians per second
b) 268.73 inches per second
Explanation:
a) The angular speed of the fan on Celsius degrees/second is 1400, so we should convert that value to radians using the fact that 2π rad = 360 °C:
b) Linear speed on a point of the blade is related with angular speed of the fan by the equation
with v linear speed, ω angular speed and r the radius of the blades. So:
Radians isn't really a unity; it is dimensionless so we can put it or not. So:
Answer:
Explanation:
The x-component is found in the magnitude of the vector times the cosine of the angle.
