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.

navik [9.2K]
Hello! 

The kind of gas cloud that is most likely to give birth to stars is a cold, dense gas cloud.

Stars are formed in giant molecular clouds, called "star nurseries". These are regions with molecular Hydrogen, Helium, and little amounts of other elements. These are cold and dense regions, and the gas cloud collapses, forming a protostar. The protostar gradually heats, powering nuclear reactions in its center, which increases the temperature even more and giving birth to a star. 

Have a nice day!

A basketball player jumped straight up to grab a rebound. If she was in the air for 0.80 second, how high did she jump?
Kazeer [188]
-- She went up for 0.4 sec and down for 0.4 sec.

-- The vertical distance traveled in gravity during ' t ' seconds is

                   D  =  (1/2)  x  (g)  x  (t)²

                       = (1/2) (9.8 m/s²) (0.4 sec)²

                       =    (4.9 m/s²)  x  (0.16 s²)

                       =      0.784 meter        ( B )

A wave has a wavelength of 10 mm and a frequency of 4 hertz to what is it’s speed ?
nordsb [41]

Convert 10mm to metres = 0.01m

Wave speed = frequency *wavelength
= 4Hz*0.01m
= 0.04 m/s

Hope this helps

A rocket has total mass Mi=360 kg , including Mf=330kg of fuel and oxidizer. In interstellar space, it starts from rest at the p
steposvetlana [31]

let the parameters are:

M=instantaneous mass of the rocket

v=velocity of the rocket

t=time

initial mass=Mi=360 kg

fuel mass=Mf=330 kg

relative speed=Ve=1500 m/s

rate of mass decay=k=2.5 kg/s

writing newton’s second law of motion:

                    M*du/dt=-Ve*dM/dt

                           ==>du=-Ve*dM/M

Integration of both sides,

                       u=-Ve*ln(M)

using the limits with at t=0, u=0 and velocity being v(t),

at t=0, mass=Mi, at any time t, mass=Mi-k*t

                 v(t)-0=-Ve*ln((Mi-k*t)/Mi)

                  v(t)=-Ve*ln(1-(k*t/Mi))

<h3>What is needed for rocket propulsion?</h3>

Rocket propulsion is the strategy utilized to make the basic thrust to lift a rocket into the air. The force that the rocket employments to lift off from the soil is known as rocket propulsion. The third law of movement by Newton serves as the foundation for rocket propulsion. Here, the fuel is shot out from the exit mightily in arrange to cause an equal and converse reaction. The some sorts of rocket propulsion are fuelled by liquid, strong, cold gas, and particles. The rocket's mass, fuel burn rate, and weaken speed all impact speeding up.
