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.

(a) The stick is supported by a sharp point at the middle. On the left side, a weight of 100 g is suspended at 40 cm from the mi

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

20cm

Explanation:

Hello!

remember that the condition for a body to be at rest is that the sum of its moments and its forces be zero,

To solve this problem you must draw the free body diagram of the stick (attached image) and sum up moments at point 0 (where the sharp is located), which results in the following equation

(100g)(40cm)=x(200g)

$X=\frac{(100)(40)}{(200)} =20cm$

A potential difference of 107 mV exists between the inner and outer surfaces of a cell membrane. The inner surface is negative r

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The workdone is $W = 1.712 *10^{-20 } \ J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The potential difference is $V = 107 mV = 107 *10^{-3} \ V$

Generally the charge on $Na^{+}$ is $Q_{Na^{+}} = 1.60 *10^{-19 } \ C$

Generally the workdone is mathematically represented as

$W = Q_{Na^{+}}V$

=> $W = 1.60 *10^{-19 } * 107 *10^{-3}$

=> $W = 1.712 *10^{-20 } \ J$
