The mass of a coin is measured to be 12.5±0.1 g. The diameter is 2.8±0.1 cm and the thickness 2.1 ±0.1 mm. Calculate the average
Evgesh-ka [11]

The average density of the material from which the coin is made is 9.67 g/cm³.

<h3>Volume of the coin</h3>

The volume of the coin at the given diameter is calculated as follows;

V = Ah

where;

  • A is area of the coin
  • h is the thickness of the coin

V = πd²/4 x h

V = π(2.8)²/4  x (0.21 cm)

V = 1.293 cm³

<h3>average density of the coin</h3>

The average density of the material from which the coin is made is calculated as follows;

density = mass/volume

density = 12.5 g / (1.293 cm³)

density = 9.67 g/cm³

Thus, the average density of the material from which the coin is made is 9.67 g/cm³.

describes how the color and texture of a surface affect absorption and reflection of solar radiation?
Wewaii [24]

Most of the radiation, however, is absorbed by the earth's surface. ... Every surface on earth absorbs and reflects energy at varying degrees, based on its color and texture. Dark-colored objects absorb more visible radiation; light-colored objects reflect more visible radiation.

What type of acceleration does an object moving with constant speed in a circular path experience?Select one:A) constant acceler
olga_2 [115]

ANSWER:

D) centripetal acceleration.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

When a body performs a uniform circular motion, the direction of the velocity vector changes at every instant. This variation is experienced by the linear vector, due to a force called centripetal, directed towards the center of the circumference that gives rise to the centripetal acceleration.

Therefore, the answer is centripetal acceleration.

Explanation:

Based on the information provided in the question, we are informed that Agustin visits Panama City, Florida, during the month of May and that he feels a shore breeze blowing from the ocean onto the beach.

The reason for the shore breeze is simply due to the fact that the ocean is colder than the land. Since the ocean is colder, anyone who goes to the beach will feel the breeze.
