Answer:

1020g

Explanation:

Volume of can=1100cm^3=1100\times 10^{-6}m^3

1cm^3=10^{-6}m^3

Mass of can=80g=\frac{80}{1000}=0.08kg

1Kg=1000g

Density of lead=11.4g/cm^3=11.4\times 10^{3}=11400kg/m^3

By using 1g/cm^3=10^3kg/m^3

We have to find the mass of lead which shot can it carry without sinking in water.

Before sinking the can  and lead inside it they are floating in the water.

Buoyancy force =F_b=Weight of can+weight of lead

\rho_wV_cg=m_cg+m_lg

Where \rho_w=10^3kg/m^3=Density of water

m_c=Mass of can

m_l=Mass of lead

V_c=Volume of can

Substitute the values then we get

1000\times 1100\times 10^{-6}=0.08+m_l

1.1-0.08=m_l

m_l=1.02 kg=1.02\times 1000=1020g

1 kg=1000g

Hence, 1020 grams of lead shot can it carry without sinking water.

Which is a negative effect of deforestation on the environment? A. habitat restoration B. desertification C. soil production D.
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:Deforestation refers to the decrease in forest areas across the world that are lost for other uses such as agricultural croplands, urbanization, or mining activities. Greatly accelerated by human activities since 1960, deforestation has been negatively affecting natural ecosystems, biodiversity, and the climate. The UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization estimates the annual rate of deforestation to be around 1.3 million km2 per decade.

07. How do scientists use spectroscopy (the study of light frequencies released
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Every element is able to be recognized individually in many different ways. A very easy and common way is using light absorption also known as spectroscopy. Every atom has electrons, and these electrons like to stay in their lowest-energy configuration. However, when photons collide with an electron it can increase it to a higher energy level.. This is absorption, and each element’s electrons absorb light at specific wavelengths related to the difference between energy levels in that atom. But the electrons want to return to their original levels, so they don’t hold onto the energy for long. When they emit the energy, they release photons with exactly the same wavelengths of light that were absorbed in the first place. An electron can release this light in any direction, so most of the light is emitted in directions away from our line of sight. Therefore, a dark line appears in the spectrum at that particular wavelength.  

Because the wavelengths at which absorption lines occur are unique for each element, astronomers can measure the position of the lines to determine which elements are present in a target. The amount of light that is absorbed can also provide information about how much of each element is present.
