Steady speed of river = 0.480 m/s

Swimming speed of student in still water = 1.40 m/s  

When the student is swimming upstream the  velocity he is going up = 1.40-0.48= 0.92 m/s

When the student is swimming downstream the  velocity he is going down = 1.40+0.48= 1.88 m/s

Time taken to travel upstream = \frac{1000}{0.92} =1087 seconds = 18.12 minutes

Time taken to travel downstream = \frac{1000}{1.88} =592 seconds = 8.87 minutes

Total time taken = 18.12+8.87 = 26.99 minutes

Which option would it be
guapka [62]
It would be 4 atm, because the way to figure out the final pressure is that (P1)(V1)=(P2)(V2)

meaning that the original pressure x original volume is equal to the final pressure x final volume. This gas law is called Boyle's law if you'd like to learn more about it.

But (1 atm)(40 mL)=(4 atm)(10 mL)

So it would be the second choice.

How can the density of irregularly shaped objects can be calculated?
Aleks04 [339]
1.Use the balance to find the mass of the object. Record the value on the "Density Data Chart."
2.Pour water into a graduated cylinder up to an easily-read value, such as 50 milliliters and record the number.
3.Drop the object into the cylinder and record the new value in millimeters.
4.The difference between the two numbers is the object's volume. Remember that 1 milliliter is equal to 1 cubic centimeter. Record the volume on the data chart.
5.Compute the density of the object by dividing the mass value by the volume value. Record the density on the data chart.
