A team of engineering students is testing their newly designed raft in the pool where the diving team practices.

Physics
1 answer:
mash [69]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Lower than

Explanation:

When the cube is on the raft, the water displaced is equal to the weight of the cube and raft.  When the cube is in the water, the water displaced is equal to the weight of the raft, plus the volume of the cube.  Since the volume of the cube is less than the volume of water needed to displace its weight, the water level is lower.

How much energy is transported across a
irina1246 [14]

Explanation:

Let us assume that Z is the energy transported across an area of 1.00 cm^{2} per hour by an electromagnetic wave with an r.m.s speed of 21.5 V/m.

Therefore, first we will calculate the current as follows.

                  I = \frac{E_{rms^{2}}}{c \times \mu_{o}}

                    = \frac{10^{-4} \times 3600 \times (21.5)^{2}}{3 \times 10^{8} \times 4 \times 3.14 \times 10^{-7}}

                    = 0.441 J

Therefore, we can conclude that 0.441 J energy is transported across a given EM wave.

If the height of the ramp is increased then the marble's speed will be greater because gravity will have less resistance when pu
Alik [6]
If you increase the steepness of the ramp, then you will increase the acceleration of a ball which rolls down the ramp. This can be seen in two different ways: 

<span>1) Components of forces. Forces are vectors and have a direction and a magnitude. The force of gravity points straight down, but a ball rolling down a ramp doesn't go straight down, it follows the ramp. Therefore, only the component of the gravitational force which points along the direction of the ball's motion can accelerate the ball. The other component pushes the ball into the ramp, and the ramp pushes back, so there is no acceleration of the ball into the ramp. If the ramp is horizontal, then the ball does not accelerate, as gravity pushes the ball into the ramp and not along the surface of the ramp. If the ramp is vertical, the ball just drops with acceleration due to gravity. These arguments are changed a bit by the fact that the ball is rolling and not sliding, but that only affects the magnitude of the acceleration but not the fact that it increases with ramp steepness. </span>

<span>2) Work and energy. The change in potential energy of the ball is its mass times the change in height (only the vertical component counts -- horizontal displacements do not change gravitational potential energy) times the local gravitational acceleration g. This loss of gravitational potential energy shows up as an increase in kinetic energy. If the ball falls a farther distance vertically, it will have a greater kinetic energy and be going faster. Again, the kinetic energy is shared between the motion of the ball going somewhere, and the rotation of the ball, and so the details of the acceleration depend on the ball (is it hollow or solid?), but the dependence on the steepness of the ramp is the same. </span>

What is the speed of an object in its rest frame?
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

A. 0 m/s

Explanation:

The rest frame of an object is defined as the reference frame that is moving together with the object, so at the same speed of the object.

In other words, the rest frame of an object is defined as the reference frame in which the object is at rest, which means that is the reference frame in which the object has speed equal to zero (0 m/s).

Therefore, the correct answer is

A. 0 m/s

What are the density, specific gravity and mass of the air in a room whose dimensions are 4 m * 6 m * 8 m at 100 kPa and 25 C.
Volgvan

Answer:

Density = 1.1839 kg/m³

Mass = 227.3088 kg

Specific Gravity = 0.00118746 kg/m³

Explanation:

Room dimensions are 4 m, 6 m & 8 m. Thus, volume = 4 × 6 × 8 = 192 m³

Now, from tables, density of air at 25°C is 1.1839 kg/m³

Now formula for density is;

ρ = mass(m)/volume(v)

Plugging in the relevant values to give;

1.1839 = m/192

m = 227.3088 kg

Formula for specific gravity of air is;

S.G_air = density of air/density of water

From tables, density of water at 25°C is 997 kg/m³

S.G_air = 1.1839/997 = 0.00118746 kg/m³

A round pipe of varying diameter carries petroleum from a wellhead to a refinery. At the wellhead, the pipe's diameter is 50.9 c
seraphim [82]

Answer:

Flow rate 2.34 m3/s

Diameter 0.754 m

Explanation:

Assuming steady flow, the volume flow rate along the pipe will always be constant, and equals to the product of flow speed and cross-section area.

The area at the well head is

A = \pi r_w^2 = \pi (0.509/2)^2 = 0.203 m^2

So the volume flow rate along the pipe is

\dot{V} = Av = 0.203 * 11.5 = 2.34 m^3/s

We can use the similar logic to find the cross-section area at the refinery

A_r = \dot{V}/v_r = 2.34 / 5.25 = 0.446 m^2

The radius of the pipe at the refinery is:

A_r = \pi r^2

r^2 =A_r/\pi = 0.446/\pi = 0.141

r = \sqrt{0.141} = 0.377m

So the diameter is twice the radius = 0.38*2 = 0.754m
