An object's buoyant force and weight mean the same thing.A. TrueB. False​

Physics
1 answer:
german2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

False

Explanation:

No. The buoyant force on an object is the portion of its weight that appears to vanish

when the object is in any fluid (could be either a liquid or a gas).

If the object happens to float in a particular fluid, then the buoyant force at that moment

is equal to the object's weight.

Notice that the buoyant force on an object will be different in different fluids.

ycow [4]
I want to say its cooled by reflection because of the foil, sun reflects off of the foil back into the atmosphere. I don't think it's conduction because I have the foil on my windows and it's never warm to the touch. it's not a liquid so I don't believe it's convection. The foil reflects the radiation so I don't think it's b, c or d. so I wanna say A but I'm not 100% sure

If the person drops box from 3.8 m how much energy is transferred from potential energy to kinetic energy
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Kinetic energy

When work is done the energy is transferred from one type to another. This transferred energy may appear as kinetic energy.

For example, when you pedal your bicycle so that its speed increases, you are doing work to transfer chemical energy from your muscles to the kinetic energy of the bicycle.

Kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses by virtue of its movement. The amount of kinetic energy possessed by a moving object depends on the mass of the object and its speed. The greater the mass and the speed of the object the greater its kinetic energy.

The kinetic energy Ek of an object of mass m at a speed v is given by the relationship

{E_k} = \frac{1}{2}m{v^2}

m is the mass of the object in kilograms ( kg) and v is the speed of the object in metres per second ( m\,s^{-1}).

Explanation:

When work is done on an object it may also lead to energy being transferred to the object in the form of gravitational potential energy of the object.

Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object has by virtue of its position above the surface of the Earth. When an object is lifted, work is done. When work is done in raising the height of an object, energy is transferred as a gain in the gravitational potential energy of the object.

For example, suppose you lift a suitcase of mass m through a height h. The weight W of the suit case is a downward force of size mg. In lifting the suitcase, you would have to pull upwards on it with a force equal in size to its weight, mg.

Two suitcases. One has a green force arrow pointing up labelled F and a purple force arrow pointing down labelled 'Weight = mg'. The other case is raised by a height labelled h.

Suitcases with forces and height labelled

When this force (equal to the weight mg, but upwards) is applied to the suitcase over the distance h:

Work\,done=force\,\times\,distance\,upwards=mg\,\times\,h

This energy is transferred to potential energy when raising the object through a known height.

Energy = mass \times gravitational\,field\,strength \times height

E = m \times g \times h

This is the relationship used to calculate gravitational potential energy.

{E_p} = mgh

where m is the mass of the object in kilograms (kg), g is the gravitational field strength, (for positions near the surface of the Earth g = 9∙8 newtons per kilogram ( N kg ^{-1} and h is the height above the surface of the Earth in metres ( m).

How are electricity and magnets connected?
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Magnets are employed to generate electricity.

Explanation:

Magnets' characteristics are employed to generate electricity. Electrons are pulled and pushed by moving magnetic fields. When you move a magnet around a coil of wire, or a coil of wire around a magnet, the electrons in the wire are pushed out and an electrical current is created.

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Wave produced in string and waves produced in air are different . The only similarity is that their frequency are equal . Otherwise , no similarity . One is transverse ( on wire ) , the other is longitudinal ( air ) . Their velocities too are different .

velocity = wavelength x frequency

if frequency is constant

wavelength  ∝  velocity

wavelength is proportional to velocity . Since their velocities are different , their wavelength too will be different.
