Silver has a mass of 10.5 grams and a volume of 19.3 cm3. What is its density?

Neko [114]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 0.54 g/cm³</h3>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

$density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\$

From the question we have

$density = \frac{10.5}{19.3} \\ = 0.54404145...$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

A 70 kg hunter, standing on frictionless ice, shoots a 42 g bullet horizontally at a speed of 590 m/s . Part A Part complete Wha

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

The recoil velocity is 0.354 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of hunter = 70 kg

Mass of bullet = 42 g = 0.042 kg

Speed of bullet = 590 m/s

We need to calculate the recoil speed of hunter

Using conservation of momentum

$m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}=m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}$

Where, $m_{1}$ = mass of hunter

$m_{2}$ = mass of bullet

u = initial velocity

v = recoil velocity

Put the value in the equation

$0+0=70\times v_{1}+0.042\times590$

$v_{1}=-\dfrac{0.042\times590}{70}$

$v=-0.354\ m/s$

Hence, The recoil velocity is 0.354 m/s.

a projectile is fired in such away that its horizontal range is equal to three times its naximum height.what is the angle of pro

finlep [7]

Answer:

$\theta=53.13^o$

Explanation:

<u>2-D Projectile Motion</u>

In 2-D motion, there are two separate components of the acceleration, velocity and displacement. The horizontal component has zero acceleration, while the acceleration in the vertical direction is always the acceleration due to gravity. The basic formulas for this type of movement are

$V_x=V_{ox}=V_ocos\theta$

$V_y=V_{oy}-gt=V_osin\theta-gt$

$x=V_{ox}t$

$\displaystyle y=y_o+V_{oy}t-\frac{gt^2}{2}$

$\displaystyle x_{max}=\frac{2V_{ox}V_{oy}}{g}$

$\displaystyle y_{max}=\frac{V_{oy}^2}{2g}$

The projectile is fired in such a way that its horizontal range is equal to three times its maximum height. We need to find the angle \theta at which the object should be launched. The range is the maximum horizontal distance reached by the projectile, so we establish the base condition:

$x_{max}=3y_{max}$

$\displaystyle \frac{2V_{ox}V_{oy}}{g}=3\frac{V_{oy}^2}{2g}$

Using the formulas for $V_{ox}, V_{oy}:$

$\displaystyle \frac{2V_{o}cos\theta V_{o}sin\theta}{g}=3\frac{V_{o}^2sin^2\theta}{2g}$

Simplifying

$4cos\theta sin\theta=3sin^2\theta$

Dividing by $sin\theta$

$4cos\theta=3sin\theta$

Rearranging

$tan\theta=\frac{4}{3}$

$\theta=arctan\frac{4}{3}$

$\theta=53.13^o$

How do earthquakes affect earths surface?

ivanzaharov [21]

Some of the reasons that can cause can earthquake are volcanic eruptions, the grinding of tectonic plates beneath the earth's crust and violent explosions which can be artificially induced as well. No matter what the reason is, earthquakes affect the environment and earth's surface. Noticeable cracks have formed on the earth's surface after earthquakes. If the tremors are violent, it can result in the destruction of landscapes. The mountains become prone to land sliding. the glacier's become a threat because of fear of avalanches. tsunamis which are earthquakes in the ocean bed can cause heavy flooding which causes water to cross all boundaries and shores and flood entire cities. Earthquakes caused by volcanoes can result in the spewing of so much lava that it may spill everywhere and cool changing the surface of the earth geologically as well as the ash causing aerial pollution.
