A block of wood measuring 2.75 cm x 4.80 cm x 7.50 cm has a mass of 84.0 g. will the block of wood sink or float in water?

Physics
1 answer:
KIM [24]3 years ago
6 0
The volume of the block of wood is given by length × width ×height
 = 2.75 × 4.80 × 7.5
 = 99 cm³
Density is given by mass/volume
Thus = 84.0 g/ 99 cm³
         = 0.848 g/cm³
Hence;  since the block is less dense than water (1 g/cm³) it will float

The earliest radio broadcasts on Earth were emitted about 100 years ago. Approximately where are these initial radio waves now?
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

100 ly are d=9.454255\times10^{17}m

Explanation:

The speed of light is, by definition (we define this and derive a definition of distance from there nowadays), c=299792458m/s. We want to know, at this speed, how much distance the radio signals travel in 100 years. Since each year has 365 days (not a leap one though), each day has 24 hours, each hour has 60 minutes and each minute has 60 seconds, the number of seconds in a year will be (365)(24)(60)(60)=31536000, so the distance traveled by the waves in 100 years will be:

d=vt=(299792458m/s)(100)(31536000s)=9.454255\times10^{17}m, which, of course, are 100 light years.

Why is it important to keep the muzzle of a firearm pointed in a safe direction, even though the firearm's safety is engaged?
Gnom [1K]
The correct answer is B. The safety only prevents you from pulling the trigger, but does not stop the pin from striking the primer. For example, if you drop the firearm, the pin may hit the primer and fire the firearm. It is always responsible to keep the firearm pointed in a safe direction so that if this happens, no consequences come out of it.

a bike is moving with a velocity of 90km/hr.after applying break it stops in 5 sec. calculate the force applied by brakes .mass
pentagon [3]

Explanation:

initial velocity(u) = 90 km/s = 25 m/s

time (t) = 5 sec

mass (m) = 200 kg 

final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

v = u + at 

0 = 25 + a * 5

-25 = 5 a

-5 = a

Therefore acceleration = -5m/s²

Force = mass * acceleration 

F = 200*-5

F = -1000 N

Ions can have a positive or negative charge. Please select the best answer from the choices provided T F
mixas84 [53]

From among the choices provided, the more appropriate
answer is ' T ', the initial letter often used to represent
words that include 'true', 'truth', 'trust', etc., (as well as
'tree', 'train', 'transmit', 'Transylvania', 'trachea', 'travesty',
and 'trick', which are irrelevant to the present discussion).

This response is the most fitting and appropriate, because
the statement that precedes the list of allowable choices is
exemplary in its accuracy and veracity.  An ion can, in fact,
have a positive or negative charge, although the same ion
cannot have both.
