The correct answer to the question is : D) Thermometre

EXPLANATION:

Thermometre is the device used for measuring the temperature of any substance.

Thermal expansion is the process in which the substance will expand when heat is given to that substance. Thermometre is based on the property of thermal expansion.

Generally, the substance that is used in thermometre is mercury. It expands at a fast rate when a little bit of heat is given to the thermometre.

When the thermometre is connected to any body, the heat will flow from body at high temperature to thermometre. The mercury level rises in the thermometre tube which gives the temperature of that substance under consideration.

Hence, it is the thermometre which is based on thermal expansion.

Answer:

0.75 g/cm^3

Explanation:

The formula for density:

\rho = \frac{m}{V}

Where m is the mass and V is the volume.

So, we can substitute values for m and V:

\rho = \frac{277}{370}\approx0.75

Therefore, the density is 0.75 g/cm^3 (watch the units!)

A rectangular barge, 5.2 m long and 2.4 m wide, floats in fresh water. Suppose that a 410-kg crate of auto parts is loaded onto
sesenic [268]
<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>The depth of barge float=3 cm</h2><h2>Explanation:</h2>

Length of rectangular barge=5.2 m

Width of rectangular barge=2.4m

Mass of crate=410 kg

Let h be the height of barge float

Volume of barge float=l\times b\times h=5.2\times 2.4\times h=12.48h

Density of water=10^3kg/m^3

Weight of water displaced by barge=Buoyant force=-Weight of horse

Volume\;of\;water\times density\;of\;water\times g=410\times g

12.48h\times 1000=410

h=\frac{410}{12.48\times 1000}=0.03 m

1 m=100 cm

0.03 m=0.03\times 100=3cm

Hence, the depth of barge float=3 cm
