Based on Archimedes' principle, the greatest buoyant force an object can experience in water is determined by which quantity?

Physics
1 answer:
ValentinkaMS [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

B. The object's volume

Explanation:

When an object is immersed in a fluid, it experiences an upward force which is called buoyant force. The magnitude of the buoyant force is given by:

B=\rho_f V_{disp} g

where

\rho_f is the density of the fluid in which the object is immersed

V_{disp} is the volume of the fluid displaced by the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

When the object is totally immersed in the fluid, V_{disp} corresponds to the volume of the object; when the object is only partially immersed, V_{disp} corresponds only to the volume of the part of the object immersed.

From the formula, we see that the greatest buoyant force is experienced by the object when it is fully immersed. Moreover, we see that the buoyant force depends only on one property of the object: its volume. Therefore, the correct choice is

B. The object's volume

Answer:

Required energy Q = 231 J

Explanation:

Given:

Specific heat of copper C = 0.385 J/g°C

Mass m = 20 g

ΔT = (50 - 20)°C = 30 °C

Find:

Required energy

Computation:

Q = mCΔT

Q = 20(0.385)(30)

Required energy Q = 231 J

A strong man and a weak man are trying to carry a ladder . How should they carry it in such a way that the weak person feels les
dsp73

Answer:

The strong person should carry the ladder at the  front end and the weak person should carry it at the back end.

Explanation:

this is because in such a case the strong person has to pull the ladder whereas the weak person at the back end have to push the ladder. In such case it is easier to push because the weak person can use the force of gravity of his own body for pushing the ladde.

However in case of pulling the ladder one has to overcome his own gravity to pull the heavy object
