Answer: 3.21 N

Specific\hspace{1mm} gravity = \frac {Density\hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1mm}substance}{Density\hspace{1mm} of \hspace{1mm}water}

\Rightarrow Density \hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1mm}substance= 2.32\times 1000\hspace{1mm} kg/m^3 = 2320\hspace{1mm}kg/m^3\\ Mass =Density\times volume\\ \Rightarrow 2320 \hspace{1mm} kg/m^3\times 8.64 \hspace{1mm}in^3\times \frac {1.64\times10^{-5} m^3}{1\hspace{1mm}in^3}=0.328 kg

For weight, we will multiply by g=9.8 m/s^{-2}

weight= 0.328\times9.8=3.21\hspace{1mm}N

Hence, the rock would weigh 3.21 N.

Alexxx [7]
\frac{p1}{t1} = \frac{p2}{t2}

Pressure Law: constant volume

Convert all Temperatures to Kelvin

0°C= 273K

\frac{2660}{273} = \frac{3040}{t2} \\ \\ 3040 \times 273 = t2 \times 2660 \\ \\ 829920 \div 2660 = t2 \\ \\ t2 = 312

answer= 312Kelvin

Which of the following has more inertia?? bowling ball , hammer, Tennis ball feather
I am Lyosha [343]
The bowling ball would have the most inertia because it has the most mass. Inertia is the ability to resist a change in motion. So, it sort of makes sense that the more massive an object, the more resistance it has against outside forces. 
Bowling ball would be your answer since it has the most mass.

A person drives a car around a circular road with a constant speed of 20 m/s. The
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

16 m/s^2

Explanation:

acceleration tangential = (v^2)/r

a=400/25

a=16 m/s^2

Side note: next time, be more specific when asking about acceleration in circular motion. There's more than one type! Example:

angular acceleration=acceleration tangential/r

angular acc.=16/25

angular acc.=0.64 rad/s^2

A 64 kg swimmer jumps, with a velocity of 4.2 m/s, off the front of a 25 kg kayak when the kayak is moving forward at a velocity
Crank

Answer:

3.88m/s

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentum

m1u1+m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

m1 and m2 are the masses

u1 and 2 are the initial velocities

v is the final velocity

Given

m1 = 64kg

u1 = 4.2m/s

m2 = 25kg

u2 = 3.2m/s

Required

Final velocity v

Substitute the given values into the formula

64(4.2)+25(3.2) = (65+25)v

268.8+80 = 90v

348.8 = 90v

v = 348.8/90

v = 3.88m/s

Hence the velocity of the kayak after the swimmer jumps off is 3.88m/s
