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

KIM [24]2 years ago

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

goblinko [34]

Answer;

-Sensors

-Sensors are placed on dangerous machinery to detect motion, light, heat, pressure, or another stimulus. Their presence helps protect operators from injury while working on machines.

Explanation;

-Machinery, safety and factory floor sensors and switches help workers become more productive, efficient, and safe.

-Hazardous machines and systems are frequently equipped with safety elements (safety doors) with a locking mechanism to protect the operator. Their function is to prevent hazardous machine functions if the safety door is not closed and locked and to keep the safety door closed and locked until the risk of injury has passed.

Squids and octopuses propel themselves by expelling water. They do this by keeping water in a cavity and then suddenly contracti
Alex

Answer:

A) The speed of the water must be 8.30 m/s.

B) Total kinetic energy created by this maneuver is 70.12 Joules.

Explanation:

A) Mass of squid with water = 6.50 kg

Mass of water in squid cavuty = 1.55 kg

Mass of squid = m_1=6.50 kg- 1.55 kg=4.95 kg

Velocity achieved by squid = v_1=2.60 m/s

Momentum gained by squid = P=m_1v_1

Mass of water = m_2=1.55 kg

Velocity by which water was released by squid = v_2

Momentum gained by water but in opposite direction = P'=m_2v_2

P = P'

m_1v_1=m_2v_2

v_2=\frac{m_1v_1}{m_2}=\frac{4.95 kg\times 2.60 m/s}{1.55 kg}=8.30 m/s

B) Kinetic energy does the squid create by this maneuver:

Kinetic energy of squid = K.E  =\frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^{2}

Kinetic energy of water = K.E' = \frac{1}{2}m_2v_2^{2}

Total kinetic energy created by this maneuver:

K.E+K.E'=\frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^{2}+\frac{1}{2}m_2v_2^{2}

=\frac{1}{2}\times 4.95 kg\times (2.60 m/s)^2+\frac{1}{2}\times 1.55 kg\times (8.30 m/s)^2=70.12 Joules

PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST AND EXTRA POINTS!! Super simple I’ve just been sick so I have no clue what’s going on.
Tju [1.3M]

Answer: 12) 1.07 m/s (right) 13) 4.05 m/s 14) 73 m/s 15) 10.9 m/s

Explanation:

12) Conservation of momentum. Momentum is the produce of mass and velocity.

13(2) + 15(-5) = 13(-5) + 15v

v = 1.06666... ≈ 1.07 m/s (right)

13) 18(9) + 22(0) = 18v + 22v

v = 18(9)/40 = 4.05 m/s

14) 0.65(35) + 0.08(0) = 0.65(26) + 0.08v

v = 73.125

15) This is a bit trickier. Let's ASSUME you jump off at 7 m/s relative to the truck. Doing this, we can assume that the reference frame is moving along with the truck at 10 m/s

the conservation of momentum equation becomes

600(0) + 80(0) = 600v + 80(-7)

v = 0.9333333... m/s

adding back the velocity of the reference frame means the truck is now traveling.

10.9333333... ≈ 10.9 m/s

What would a velocity of a rock dropped from a cliff be after falling for 6 seconds?
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

  A. 58.8m/s

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s², so the velocity after 6 seconds is ...

  v = at

  v = (9.8 m/s²)(6 s) = 58.8 m/s
