When you float an ice cube in water, you notice that 90% of it is submerged beneath the surface. Now suppose you put the same ic

e cube in a glass of some liquid whose density is less than that of water. How much of the ice cube will be submerged below the surface of this liquid? a. More than 90% b. 90% c. Less than 90%

Answer:

option (c)

Explanation:

90% of the body is submerged in water.

Now it is immersed in an unknown liquid whose density is less than the density of water.

Buoyant force acting on the body depends on the volume immersed, density of liquid and gravity.

As the density of liquid is less than the density of water, so the buoyant force acting on the body by the unknown liquid is less than water. So it is submerged less than 90% in this liquid.

what should be done in order to increase the gravitational force between two objects? Decrease the mass of both of the objects.
sesenic [268]

Answer:

Decrease the distance between the two objects.

Explanation:

The force (F) of attraction between two masses (M₁ and M₂) separated by a distance (r) is given by:

F = GM₁M₂ / r²

NOTE: G is the gravitational force constant.

From the equation:

F = GM₁M₂ / r²

We can say that the force is directly proportional to the masses of the object and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. This implies that an increase in any of the masses will increase the force of attraction and likewise, a decrease in any of the masses will lead to a decrease in the force of attraction.

Also, an increase in the distance between the masses will result in a decrease in the force of attraction and a decrease in the distance between the masses, will result in an increase in the force of attraction.

Considering the question given above,

To increase the gravitational force between the two objects, we must decrease the distance between the two objects as explained above.
