The weight should be shared between the two string equally. Therefore, tension in each string, T is;
T = 120 N/2 = 60 N
According to the law of conservation of energy,
A. an object loses most of its energy as friction
<u>B. the total amount of energy for a system stays the same</u>
Energy is never lost due to the law of conservation
C. the potential energy of an object is always greater than its kinetic energy
D. the kinetic energy of an object is always greater than its potential energy
We will first convert lb to grams and in³ to milliliters.
350 lb : 2.205 = 158.75733 kg = 158,757.33 grams
1.3 · 10^4 in³ = 13,000 in³ = 13,000 · 0.016387064 = 213.031 liters
213.031 liters · 1,000 = 213,031 milliliters
Density = m / V = 158,753.33 g / 213,031 ml = 0.7452 g/ ml
