Which is most buoyant in water? F) wood H) lead weight G) penny J) sugar

2 answers:

5 0

Wood has a lower density than water, and thus the upward buoyant force provided by the water is equal to the weight of the wood submerged.

Penny has a smaller density

I would say wood would be ur best option.

Wood bc it’s less dense than water therefore it floats making it the most buoyant out of the answer choices

2. A 20 cm object is placed 10cm in front of a convex lens of focal length 5cm. Calculate

adoni [48]

Answer:

 » Image distance :

${ \tt{ \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u} = \frac{1}{f} }} \\$

v is image distance
u is object distance, u is 10 cm
f is focal length, f is 5 cm

${ \tt{ \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{10} = \frac{1}{5} }} \\ \\ { \tt{ \frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{10} }} \\ \\ { \tt{v = 10}} \\ \\ { \underline{ \underline{ \pmb{ \red{ \: image \: distance \: is \: 10 \: cm \: \: }}}}}$

 » Magnification :

• Let's derive this formula from the lens formula:

${ \tt{ \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u} = \frac{1}{f} }} \\$

» Multiply throughout by fv

${ \tt{fv( \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u} ) = fv( \frac{1}{f} )}} \\ \\ { \tt{ \frac{fv}{v} + \frac{fv}{u} = \frac{fv}{f} }} \\ \\ { \tt{f + f( \frac{v}{u} ) = v}}$

• But we know that, v/u is M

${ \tt{f + fM = v}} \\ { \tt{f(1 +M) = v }} \\ { \tt{1 +M = \frac{v}{f} }} \\ \\ { \boxed{ \mathfrak{formular : } \: { \tt{ M = \frac{v}{f} - 1 }}}}$

v is image distance, v is 10 cm
f is focal length, f is 5 cm
M is magnification.

${ \tt{M = \frac{10}{5} - 1 }} \\ \\ { \tt{M = 5 - 1}} \\ \\ { \underline{ \underline{ \pmb{ \red{ \: magnification \: is \: 4}}}}}$

 » Nature of Image :

Image is magnified
Image is erect or upright
Image is inverted
Image distance is identical to object distance.

Observe the given figure and find the the gravitational force between m1 and m2.

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

The gravitational force between m₁ and m₂, is approximately 1.06789 × 10⁻⁶ N

Explanation:

The details of the given masses having gravitational attractive force between them are;

m₁ = 20 kg, r₁ = 10 cm = 0.1 m, m₂ = 50 kg, and r₂ = 15 cm = 0.15 m

The gravitational force between m₁ and m₂ is given by Newton's Law of gravitation as follows;

$F =G \cdot \dfrac{m_{1} \cdot m_{2}}{r^{2}}$

Where;

F = The gravitational force between m₁ and m₂

G = The universal gravitational constant = 6.67430 × 10⁻¹¹ N·m²/kg²

r₂ = 0.1 m + 0.15 m = 0.25 m

Therefore, we have;

$F = 6.67430 \times 10^{-11} \ N \cdot m^2/kg \times \dfrac{20 \ kg\times 50 \ kg}{(0.1 \ m+ 0.15 \ m)^{2}} \approx 1.06789 \times 10^{-6} \ N$

The gravitational force between m₁ and m₂, F ≈ 1.06789 × 10⁻⁶ N

How is gamma rays used to transfer energy?

expeople1 [14]

Gamma ray (also called gamma radiation), denoted by the lower-case Greek letter gamma, is penetrating electromagnetic radiation of a kind arising from the radioactive decay of atomic nuclei. It consists of photons in the highest observed range of photon energy.
