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

ra1l [238]

Answer:

10.0     zero, by Gauss' Law the symmetrical distribution will produce no internal electric fields

21.5     E = k Q / R^2     behaves as if all charge were at center

E = 9 E9 * 29.5 E-6 / .215^2 = 5.74E6 N/C

melvin pulls a sled across level snow with a force of 317 N along a rope that is 33 degrees above the horizont?
tatuchka [14]

Answer: work Melvin did=9000J

Explanation:

Given to complete the question: If the sled moved 33.9m,how much work did Melvin do? Answer in unit of J and round to the nearest thousandth.

W = F ×S

W = 317 × cos 33°×33.9

W=9012.6055J

W=9000J to the nearest thousandth

A certain atom has only three energy levels. From lowest to highest energy, these levels are denoted n = 1, n = 2, and n = 3. Wh
shtirl [24]

Answer:

D. 160 nm

Explanation:

The energy released from n = 3 to n = 1 must be equal to the sum of energies released from n = 3 to n = 2 and from n = 2 to n = 1. Therefore,

Energy of Photon from 3 to 1 = Energy of Photon from 3 to 2 + Energy of Photon from 2 to 1

\frac{hc}{\lambda} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{1}} + \frac{hc}{\lambda_{2}}\\\\\frac{1}{\lambda} = \frac{1}{\lambda_{1}} + \frac{1}{\lambda_{2}}

where,

λ = wavelength of photon released from 3 to 1 = ?

λ₁ = wavelength of photon released from 3 to 2 = 800 nm

λ₂ = wavelength of photon released from 2 to 1 = 200 nm

Therefore,

\frac{1}{\lambda} = \frac{1}{800\ nm} + \frac{1}{200\ nm}\\\\\frac{1}{\lambda} = 0.00625 nm^{-1}\\\\\lambda = \frac{1}{0.00625 nm^{-1}}\\\\\lambda = 160 nm

Therefore, the correct option is:

<u>D. 160 nm</u>
