Since the density of the substance is ρ (rho),

==> every cm³ of this substance has ρ grams of mass.

Then

==> V cm³ of it has ρV grams of mass. That's ' m '.

and

==> 3V cm³ of it has 3ρV grams of mass. That's ' <em>3m</em> '.

Explains this: a light source can emit more than one type of light

Radda [10]

Answer:

The electromagnetic spectrum comprise a lot of waves length. Usually, different waves length are called as different lights, and a light source can emit in more than a different wave length, as the sun does, for example. The sun emit the visible light, UV light, infrared, etc.

A chunk of paraffin (wax) has a mass of 50.4 grams and a volume of 57.9 cm3. What is the density of

ExtremeBDS [4]

$Formula\ for\ density:\\\\
p=\frac{m}{V}\\p-density,\\m-mass,\\V-volume\\\\
Data:\\
m=50,4grams\\
V=57,9cm^3\\\\
p=\frac{50,4g}{57,9cm^3}=0,87\frac{g}{cm^3}\\\\Density\ of\ paraffin\ is\ equal\ to\ 0,87\frac{g}{cm^3}.

A child walks due east on the deck of a ship at 2 miles per hour. the ship is moving north at a speed of 18 miles per hour. find

garik1379 [7]

Refer to the figure shown below.

The velocity of the child and the velocity of the ship should be added vectorially to find the speed and direction of the child relative to the water surface.

The magnitude of the child's velocity is
v = √(2² + 18²) = 18.11 mph

The direction of the child's speed is
θ = tan⁻¹ (18/2) = tan⁻¹ 9 = 83.7° north of east or counterclockwise from the eastern direction.

Answer:
The magnitude is 18.1 mph.
The direction is 84° north of east.
