Answer:

B. for an object that floats

Explanation:

For an object to float the weight of the object must be balanced by the buoyancy force.

However an object will sink if the  magnitude of the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the amount of fluid that has the same volume as the object.

2. Three super strong teenagers pull a heavy crate across the floor. Dion pulls with a force of 18.5 N towards 0°. Shirley pulls
kogti [31]

Answer:

A) The resultant force is 43.4 [N]

B) The movement of the heavy crate is going to the right and in the negative direction on the y-axis

Explanation:

We need to make a sketch of the different forces acting on the heavy crate.

In the attached image we can see the forces and the sum of the vector with their respective angles.

Forces in the X-axis

Fdionx=18.5N\\\\Fshix=16.5*cos(30)=14.29N\\Fjoanx=19.5*cos(60)=9.75N\\\\Forcex= 18.5 + 14.29 + 9.75 = 42.54 N

Forces in the y-axis

FDiony=0[N]\\Fshirley= 16.5*sin(30)=8.25[N]\\Fjoany=19.5*sin(60)=16.88 [N]\\\\Forcesy=0+8.25-16.88= -8.63[N]

Using the Pythagorean theorem

Tforce=\sqrt{(42.54)^{2} +(8.63)^{2} } \\\\Tforce= 43.4N

The movement of the heavy crate is going to the right and in the negative direction on the y-axis, this can be easily seen in the graphical sum of vectors.

How?? anyone?!...........
Mariana [72]
-- find the horizontal and vertical components of F1.

-- find the horizontal and vertical components of F2.

-- find the horizontal and vertical components of F3.

-- add up the 3 horizontal components; their sum is the horizontal component of the resultant.

-- add up the 3 vertical components; their sum is the vertical component of the resultant.

-- the magnitude of the resultant is the square root of (vertical component^2 + horizontal component^2)

-- the direction of the resultant is the angle whose tangent is (vertical component/horizontal component), starting from the positive x-direction.

Two cars collide and come to a complete stop. where did all of their energy go?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
Most of the energy will be absorbed by the materials that make up the cars, causing them to deform. The energy will also be converted into sound energy, causing a loud bang upon collision. Also, some energy will be converted to thermal energy, which will cause the cars to heat up slightly.

If an object has a mass of 20 grams and a volume of 40 cm3, what is its density in g/cm3?
sattari [20]
Density = Mass/Volume 
So, given mass = 20 g and volume = 40 cm^3 
By substituting in above equation, Density = 20/40 = 0.5 g/cm^3
Hope it helps.
