A material will float on the surface of a liquid if the material has a density less than that of the liquid. given that the dens

ity of water is approximately 1.0 g/ml, will a block of material having a volume of 1.3 104 in3 and weighing 350 lb float or sink when placed in a reservoir of water?

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
Answer: A block of material will float.

The figure shows three displacement vectors, which are
aleksley [76]

Answer:

the correct answer is D

Explanation:

In this exercise, the vectors are in the same west-east direction, so we can assume that the positive direction is east and perform the algebraic sum.

       R = δ + ε

where

       δ = 2.0 m

       ε = 7.0 m

the positive sign indicates that it is heading east

        R = 2.0 + 7.0

        R = 9.0 m

the direction is east

the correct answer is D

With what magnitude of force does a ball of mass 0.75 kilograms need to be hit so that it accelerates at the rate of 25 meters/s
serious [3.7K]

     Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

               = (0.75 kg) x (25 m/s²)

               =  (0.75 x 25)  kg-m/s²

               =    18.75 newtons .

Note that even though we're talking about a 'hit', the acceleration only
lasts as long as the bat is in contact with the ball.  Once the ball leaves
the bat, it travels at whatever speed it had at the instant when they parted. 
Any change in its speed or direction after that is the result of gravity, air
resistance, and the fielder's mitt.  I learned a lot about these things a few
weeks ago, since I live in Chicago, about 6 miles from Wrigley Field, in
a house full of Cubs fans.

Assume patmos=1.00atm. what is the gas pressure pgas? express your answer in pascals to three significant figures.
hodyreva [135]
<span>Answer: Well, let's start by finding the pressure due to the "extra" height of the mercury. p = 1.36e4 kg/m³ · (0.105m - 0.05m) · 9.8m/s² = 7330 N/m² = 7330 Pa The pressure at B is clearly p_b = p_atmos = p_gas + 7330 Pa The pressure at A is p_a = p_gas = p_atmos - 7330 Pa c) 1 atm = 101 325 Pa Then p_gas = 101325 Pa - 7330 Pa = 93 995 Pa</span>
