<h3>Answer:</h3>

5.5 N

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • Real weight of an object in air as 10 N
  • Apparent weight in water as 7 N
  • Relative density of a liquid is 1.5

We need to calculate the apparent weight when in liquid .

  • First we calculate upthrust

Upthrust = Real weight - Apparent weight

              = 10 N - 7 N

               = 3 N

  • Then calculate the upthrust in the liquid.

we need to know that;

Relative density of a liquid  = Upthrust in liquid/Upthrust in water

Therefore;

1.5 = U ÷ 3 N

Upthrust in liquid = 3 N × 1.5

                             = 4.5 N

  • Therefore, the upthrust of the object in the liquid is 4.5 N

But, Upthrust = Real weight - Apparent weight

Therefore;

Apparent weight in Liquid = Real weight - Upthrust

                                           = 10 N - 4.5 N

                                           = 5.5 N

Thus, the weight when the object is immersed in the liquid is 5.5 N

Classify the type of plate boundary where the appalachian mountains formed . how have they changed since their formation
disa [49]
<span>The Appalachian Mountains were formed when colliding tectonic plates folded and upthrust, mainly during the Permian Period and again in the Cretaceous Period. The folds and thrusts were then eroded and carved by wind, streams and glaciers. These erosive processes are ongoing, and the topography of the Appalachian Mountains continue to change. They have changed with the miles of land that are cleared of all vegetation and topsoil. In the 1970's coal miners literally blow away the top of a mountain to get to the coal underneath.</span>
