In lab you find that a 1-kg rock suspended above water weighs 10 N. When the rock is suspended beneath the surface of the water,

the scale reads 8 N.
a. What is the buoyant force on the rock?
b. If the container of water weighs 10 N on the weighing scale, what is the scale reading when the rock is suspended beneath the surface of the water?
c. What is the scale reading when the rock is released and rests at the bottom of the container?
a) 2 N
b) 12 N
c) 20 N

Answer:

a. 2N

b. 12N

c. 20N

Explanation:

Dtaa given,

Weight of rock in air=10N

weight of rock in water =8N

a. When the rock is suspend in water, it will displace some water from thr container since Buoyant force is the acts upward and equals in magnitude to the volume of water displays,

The buoyant force is calculated as 10N-8N=2N

b. The scale reading will be the sum of the buoyant force and the weight of the container

scale reading =10N+2N=12N

c. When the rock rest at the bottom of the container, the weight of the rock(10N) is acting downward and the weight of the container also is acting downward. Hence the sum of the two weight gives the reading on the scale

scale reading=10N+10N=20N

Which of the following represents the greatest energy transition from a higher energy level to a lower one?
prohojiy [21]
You need to use Planck's law:
E = h·υ = (h·c)/λ

Without making all the calculations, a fraction is bigger than another when the denominator is smaller. Therefore you need to find the smallest wavelength (λ) which is 450nm.

You could also be helped by colors: in order of decreasing energy, you have blue - green - yellow - red.

In any case, the correct answer is a).

Write the equation of motion gover the centre of mass<br><br><br>​
Nataly [62]

Answer:

write the equation of motion go over the centre of mass

Explanation:

the center of mass of a distribution of mass in space (sometimes referred to as the balance point) is the unique point where the weighted relative position of the distributed mass sums to zero. This is the point to which a force may be applied to cause a linear acceleration without an angular acceleration.

¿Cuantos metros recorre una motocicleta en un segundo si circula a una velocidad de 90km/h?
Zina [86]

Answer:

La motocicleta recorre 25 metros en 1 segundo si circula a una velocidad de 90 km/h

Explanation:

La velocidad es una magnitud que expresa el desplazamiento que realiza un objeto en una unidad determinada de tiempo, esto es, relaciona el cambio de posición (o desplazamiento) con el tiempo.

Siendo la velocidad es el espacio recorrido en un período de tiempo determinado, entonces 90 km/h indica que en 1 hora la motocicleta recorre 90 km. Entonces, siendo 1 h= 3600 segundos (1 h=60 minutos y 1 minuto=60 segundos) podes aplicar la siguiente regla de tres: si en 3600 segundos (1 hora) la motocicleta recorre 90 km, entonces en 1 segundo ¿cuánta distancia recorrerá?

distancia=\frac{1 segundo*90 km}{3600 segundos}

distancia= 0.025 km

Por otro lado, aplicas la siguiente regla de tres: si 1 km es igual a 1,000 metros, ¿0.025 km cuántos metros son?

distancia=\frac{0.025 km*1,000 metros}{1 km}

distancia= 25 metros

<u><em>La motocicleta recorre 25 metros en 1 segundo si circula a una velocidad de 90 km/h</em></u>
