Answer:

A. 0.5 g/cm3

Explanation:

Density is calculated by dividing an object's mass by its volume. The mass of the floating object is equal to the mass of the water it displaces. The volume of the water displaced by the floating object is 6 mL. Because water has a density of 1 g/mL, the mass of 6 mL of water is 6 g. Therefore, the mass of the floating object is 6 g.

The volume of the sunken object is equal to the volume of water that it displaces, which is 12 mL or 12 cm3. Because the two objects are the same size, the volume of the floating object is also 12 cm3. With both the mass and the volume of the floating object known, its density can be calculated as shown: density=massvolume=6g12cm3=0.5gcm3

The density of the floating object can also be estimated by observing how high it floats in the water. The percentage of the object that is underwater is equal to the density of the floating object. In this case, half of the object is underwater, so its density is about 0.5 g/cm3.

Tems11 [23]
<span>10 hertz Hertz is the frequency of oscillation which is the number of oscillations per second. So if something takes 0.10 s per oscillation, divide 1 second by the period to get the frequency. So 1 / 0.10s = 10 1/s = 10 Hertz Therefore the object is vibrating at 10 hertz.</span>

State guy lussac law
tatuchka [14]

<span>The combined gas law has no official founder; it is simply the incorporation of the three laws that was discovered. The combined gas law is a gas law that combines Gay-Lussac’s Law, Boyle’s Law and Charle’s Law.  Boyle’s law states that pressure is inversely proportional with volume at constant temperature. Charle’s law states that volume is directly proportional with temperature at constant pressure. And Gay-Lussac’s law shows that pressure is directly proportional with temperature at constant volume. The combination of these laws known now as combined gas law gives the ratio between the product of pressure-volume and the temperature of the system is constant. Which gives PV/T=k(constant). When comparing a substance under different conditions, the combined gas law becomes P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2.</span>

A ball moving with an initial velocity of 5 m/s comes to rest after 2s. What was the ball's acceleration?
Inga [223]

Answer:

-2.5m/s²

Explanation:

The acceleration of a body is giving by the rate of change of the body's velocity. It is given by

a = Δv / t        ----------------(i)

Where;

a = acceleration (measured in m/s²)

Δv = change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity   (measure in m/s)

t = time taken for the change (measured in seconds(s))

From the question;

i. initial velocity = 5m/s

final velocity = 0 [since the body (ball) comes to rest]

Δv = 0 - 5 = -5m/s

ii. time taken = t = 2s

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

a = (-5m/s) / (2s)

a = -2.5m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the ball is -2.5m/s²

NB: The negative sign shows that the ball was actually decelerating.
