A certain piece of metal (density 9.45 grams per cubic centimeter) has the shape of a hockey puck with a diameter of 13 cm and a

height of 2.8 cm. If this puck is placed into a bowl of mercury (density 13.6 grams per cubic centimeter), it floats. How deep below the surface of the mercury is the bottom of the metal puck?

Answer:

0.0195 m

Explanation:

\rho _{p} = density of hockey puck = 9.45 gcm⁻³ = 9450 kgm³

d_{p} = diameter of hockey puck = 13 cm = 0.13 m

h_{p} = height of hockey puck = 2.8 cm = 0.028 m

\rho _{m} = density of mercury = 13.6 gcm⁻³ = 13600 kgm³

d = depth of puck below surface of mercury

According to Archimedes principle, the weight of puck is balanced by the weight of mercury displaced by puck

Weight of mercury displaced = Weight of puck

\rho _{m} (0.25)(\pi d_{p}^{2} d ) g = \rho _{p} (0.25)(\pi d_{p}^{2} h_{p} ) g\\\rho _{m} ( d ) = \rho _{p} ( h_{p} )\\(13600) d = (9450) (0.028)\\d = 0.0195 m

An open pipe is 1.42 m long
lora16 [44]

Answer:

the fundamental frequency produced by the open pipe is 120.78 Hz

Explanation:

Given;

length of the open pipe, L = 1.42 m

speed of sound in air, v = 343 m/s

The length of the open pipe for the fundamental frequency is equivalent to half of wavelength;

L = \frac{\lambda}{2} \\\\\lambda = 2L

The fundamental frequency produced by the open pipe is calculated as;

f_o = \frac{v}{\lambda} \\\\f_o = \frac{v}{2L} \\\\f_o = \frac{343}{2 \times 1.42} \\\\f_o = 120.78 \ Hz

Therefore, the fundamental frequency produced by the open pipe is 120.78 Hz

If during the submerged weighing procedure air bubbles were to adhere to the object, how would the experimental results be affec
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

see from this analysis, the apparent weight of the body is lower due to the push created by the air brujuleas

Explanation:

We will propose this exercise using Archimedes' principle, which establishes that the thrust on a body is equal to the volume of the desalted liquid.

          B = ρ g V

The weight of a submerged body is the net force between the weight and the thrust

          F_net = W - B

we can write the weight as a function of the density

          ρ_body = m / V

         m =  ρ_body V

         W = mg

         W =  ρ _body g V

we substitute

         F_net= ( ρ_body -  ρ _fluid) g V

In general this force is directed downwards, we can call this value the apparent weight of the body. This is the weight of the submerged body.

          W_aparente = ( ρ_body -  ρ _fluid) g V

If some air bubbles formed in this body, the net force of these bubbles is

         F_net ’= #_bubbles ( ρ_fluido -  ρ_air) g V’

this force is directed upwards

whereby the measured force is

         F = W_aparente - F_air  

           

As we can see from this analysis, the apparent weight of the body is lower due to the push created by the air brujuleas

You want the output current from the secondary coil of a transformer to be 10 times the input current to the primary coil. The r
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

D. 0.1

Explanation:

Using transformer equation,

N2/N1 = I1/I2................... Equation 1

Where N2 = secondary coil, N1 = primary coil, I1 = input current, I2 = output current.

make I2  the subject of the equation

I2 = I1/(N2/N1)............ Equation 2

From equation 2 above, For the output current of the secondary coil to be 10 times the input current, N2/N1 = 0.1

Hence the right option is D. 0.1
