A rock is thrown into a swimming pool that is filled with water at a uniform temperature. As the rock moves beneath the pool's s

urface and sinks to the bottom of the pool, which of the following statements is true?
a. The buoyant force on the rock increases as it sinks.
b. The buoyant force on the rock decreases as it sinks.
c. The buoyant force on the rock is zero as it sinks.
d. The buoyant force on the rock is constant as it sinks.
e. The buoyant force on the rock as it sinks is nonzero at first but becomes zero once the terminal velocity is reached.

Answer:

d. The buoyant force on the rock is constant as it sinks.

Explanation:

The sinking of an object in water can be explained by the Archimedes Principle.

The Archimedes principle states that the buoyant force on a submerged substance is equal to the water displaced by the submerging object. The buoyant force, however, does not change with depth as the substance sinks.

In the given question, when the rock moves beneath the pool, the buoyant force do not change and remains the same that is the amount of water displaced by rock remains the same.

Thus, Option-D is the correct answer.

what happens when light travels from one medium to another with a different index of refraction at a zero degree angle of incide
zaharov [31]

Answer:

No Refraction takes places

Explanation:

When light travels from one medium to another at an angle of incidence 0 degree then no refraction takes place .

It is because according to Refraction law

                    n_{i}sini = n_{r}sinr

where n_{i} ,n_{r} are the refractive index of medium of incidence and medium of refraction .

When i = 0 , left side of the equation becomes 0 and thus r (angle of refraction) must be zero. So No refraction takes place

An unstoppable object is heading right toward an unmovable object. What's going to happen?
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

In my opinion the unstoppable object will hit the unmovable object and stop but the wheels will still be rolling and trying to move but can't.

<h3>Hope this helps.</h3><h3>Good luck ✅.</h3>

A 2kg hockey puck is sliding across the ice skating rink at 2 m/s. A player hits the puck so it's velocity increases to 10 m/s.
konstantin123 [22]

The work done on the puck is 96 J

Explanation:

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done on the hockey puck is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the puck.

Mathematically:

W=K_f -K_i= \frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2

where

K_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 is the final kinetic energy of the puck, with

m = 2 kg being the mass of the puck

v = 10 m/s is the final speed

K_i = \frac{1}{2}mu^2 is the initial kinetic energy of the puck, with

u = 2 m/s being the initial speed of the puck

Substituting numbers into the equation, we find the work done by the player on the puck:

W=\frac{1}{2}(2)(10)^2 - \frac{1}{2}(2)(2)^2=96 J
