An apple is held completely submerged just below the surface of water in a container. The apple is then moved to a deeper point
Tresset [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

When the apple is held submerged in water , it experiences a buoyant force due to which it floats in water . One has to apply downward force to keep it submerged. The lower the buoyant force , lower the force needed to submerge it in water.

When apple is held at much deeper point , it experience greater pressure due to column of water around it . So its size or its volume decreases . But its weight remains the same . Due to less volume , buoyant force also decreases ( buoyant force is equal to weight of displaced volume of water. )

Due to buoyant force becoming less , force needed on apple  in downward direction will also be less.

When a parachutist jumps from an airplane, he eventually reaches a constant speed, called the terminal speed. Once he has reache
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

b) True.    the force of air drag on him is equal to his weight.

Explanation:

Let us propose the solution of the problem in order to analyze the given statements.

The problem must be solved with Newton's second law.

When he jumps off the plane

     fr - w = ma

Where the friction force has some form of type.

     fr = G v + H v²

Let's replace

     (G v + H v²) - mg = m dv / dt

We can see that the friction force increases as the speed increases

At the equilibrium point

      fr - w = 0

      fr = mg

      (G v + H v2) = mg

For low speeds the quadratic depended is not important, so we can reduce the equation to

     G v = mg

     v = mg / G

This is the terminal speed.

Now let's analyze the claims

a) False is g between the friction force constant

b) True.

c) False. It is equal to the weight

d) False. In the terminal speed the acceleration is zero

e) False. The friction force is equal to the weight

Light is incident on an air-water interface at an angle of 30 degree to the normal. What angle does the refracted ray make with
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

22 degree

Explanation:

Angle of incidence, i = 30 degree

the refractive index of water with respect to air is 4/3.

As the ray of light travels from rarer medium to denser medium, that mean air to water, the refraction takes place.

According to Snell's law,

Refractive index of water with respect to air = Sin i / Sin r

Where, r be the angle of refraction

4 / 3 = Sin 30 / Sin r

0.75 = 2 Sin r

Sin r = 0.375

r = 22 degree

Thus, the angle of refraction is 22 degree.

2. A 2000 kg car with speed 12.0 m/s hits a tree. The tree does not move or
krek1111 [17]

a) The work done by the tree is -1.44\cdot 10^5 J

b) The amount of force applied is 2880 N

Explanation:

a)

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done on the car is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the car. Therefore, we can write:

W=K_f - K_i = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 - \frac{1}{2}mu^2

where

W is the work done on the car

m is the mass of the car

u is its initial speed

v is its final speed

For the car in this problem, we have:

m = 2000 kg

u = 12.0 m/s

v = 0 (since the car comes to a stop, after the crash)

Therefore, the work done by the tree on the car is:

W=0-\frac{1}{2}(2000)(12.0)^2=-1.44\cdot 10^5 J

The work is negative because it is done in the direction opposite to the direction of motion of the car.

b)

The work done by the tree on the car can also be rewritten as

W=Fd

where

F is the force applied on the car

d is the displacement of the car during the collision

In this situation, we have:

W=-1.44\cdot 10^5 J is the work done

d=50.0 cm = 0.50 m is the displacement of the car during the collision

Solving the equation for F, we find the force exerted by the tree on the car:

F=\frac{W}{d}=\frac{-1.44\cdot 10^5 J}{0.50}=-2880 N

Where the negative sign means the force is applied opposite to the direction of motion of the car. Therefore, the magnitude of the force applied is 2880 N.

An oblique rectangular prism with a square base has a volume of 539 cubic units. The edges of the prism measure 7 by 7 by 14 uni
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

3 units

Solution:

V=539 cubic units

Square base, with edge a=7 units

Slanted edge length: s=14 units

V=Ab h

Ab=49 square units

539 cubic units = (49 square units) h

h= 11 units

s-h=14 units-11 units

s-h=3 units
