A merchant in Katmandu sells you a solid gold 1.00-kg statue for a very reasonable price. When you get home, you wonder whether

or not you got a bargain, so you lower the statue into a container of water and measure the volume of displaced water.
A) Find the volume of water that will be displaced for pure gold.
B) For my answer I found 51813 kg/m^3. It marked me down saying enter your answer using dimension of volume.... i thought kg/m^3 was dimesnsion of volume?

Answer:

a) 51.8 cm³

b) kg/m³ is a dimension of density (mass/volume). The regular unitys for volume are m³, cm³, L, gallons.

Explanation:

a) The density of pure gold is 19.3 g/cm³. When put in water, the piece of gold will occupy a volume, so that the volume of water will be displaced. To know the volume, we must divide the mass for the density (mass must be in grams because of the units of the density)

V = 1000/19.3

V = 51.8 cm³

How would you compare and contrast the 3 types of friction?
vlabodo [156]
Rolling friction .<span> the force that slows down the movement of a rolling object</span>
sliding friction.
Sliding friction : The opposing force that comes into play when one body is actually sliding over the surface of the other body is called sliding friction. e.g. A flat block is moving over a horizontal table.

Kinetic or dynamic friction: If the applied force is increased further and sets the body in motion, the friction opposing the motion is called kinetic friction

Describe the difference between the velocity graph made walking at a steady rate and the velocity graph made at an increasing ra
levacccp [35]

Answer:

The difference between the velocity graph made walking at a steady rate means that its the same value in time, that means there's no slope on the graph, so its acceleration is 0

On the other hand, if the velocity is increasing with time, the slope of the graph becomes positive, which means that the acceleration of the particle is positive.
