Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

BECAUSE AN OBJECTS DENSITY SHOWS HOW MUCH WEIGHT IS PER CUBIC UNIT. LIKE SAD HAS MORE DENSITY THAN WATER SO IT SINKS WHILE WOOD HAS LESS DENSITY THAN WATER SO IT FLOATS

A uniform disk with a 25 cm radius swings without friction about a nail through the rim. If it is released from rest from a posi

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

During the swing , the center of mass will go down due to which disc will lose potential energy which will be converted into rotational kinetic energy

mgh = 1/2 I ω² where m is mass of the disc , h is height by which c.m goes down which will be equal to radius of disc , I is moment of inertia of disc about the nail at rim , ω is angular velocity .

mgr = 1/2 x ( 1/2 m r²+ mr²) x ω²

gr = 1/2 x 1/2 r² x ω² + 1/2r² x ω²

g = 1 / 4 x ω² r + 1 / 2 x ω² r

g = 3 x ω² r/ 4

ω² = 4g /3 r

= 4 x 9.8 / 3 x .25

= 52.26

ω = 7.23 rad / s .

Two rigid tanks of equal size and shape are filled with different gases. The tank on the left contains oxygen, and the tank on t

fredd [130]

Answer:

The number of oxygen molecules in the left container greater than the number of hydrogen molecules in the right container.

Explanation:

Given:

Molar mass of oxygen, $M_O=32$

Molar mass of hydrogen, $M_H=2$

We know ideal gas law as:

$PV=nRT$

where:

P = pressure of the gas

V = volume of the gas

n= no. of moles of the gas molecules

R = universal gs constant

T = temperature of the gas

∵ $n=\frac{m}{M}$

where:

m = mass of gas in grams

M = molecular mass of the gas

∴Eq. (1) can be written as:

$PV=\frac{m}{M}.RT$

$P=\frac{m}{V}.\frac{RT}{M}$

as: $\frac{m}{V}=\rho\ (\rm density)$

So,

$P=\rho.\frac{RT}{M}$

Now, according to given we have T,P,R same for both the gases.

$P_O=P_H$

$\rho_O.\frac{RT}{M_O}=\rho_H.\frac{RT}{M_H}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{\rho_O}{32}=\frac{\rho_H}{2}$

$\rho_O=16\rho_H$

∴The molecules of oxygen are more densely packed than the molecules of hydrogen in the same volume at the same temperature and pressure. So, <em>the number of oxygen molecules in the left container greater than the number of hydrogen molecules in the right container.</em>

How to eat butter . I want to know how you all eat the butter.

g100num [7]

Many people never even taste butter, instead use oleo or margerine...fake stuff. Real butter is the best topping for popcorn! And crab legs are good dipped in it, as well as hot corn on the cobb. This is how I eat butter.

An amusement park ride consists of a rotating circular platform 8.26 m in diameter from which 10 kg seats are suspended at the e

VashaNatasha [74]

To solve this problem we will begin by finding the necessary and effective distances that act as components of the centripetal and gravity Forces. Later using the same relationships we will find the speed of the body. The second part of the problem will use the equations previously found to find the tension.

PART A) We will begin by finding the two net distances.

$r = \frac{8.26}{2} = 4.13m$
