In accordance with the definition of density as r = m/V, in order to determine the density of
matter, the mass and the volume of the sample must be known.
The determination of mass can be performed directly using a weighing instrument.
The determination of volume generally cannot be performed directly. Exceptions to this rule
include
· cases where the accuracy is not required to be very high, and
· measurements performed on geometric bodies, such as cubes, cuboids or cylinders, the volume
of which can easily be determined from dimensions such as length, height and diameter.
· The volume of a liquid can be measured in a graduated cylinder or in a pipette; the volume of
solids can be determined by immersing the sample in a cylinder filled with water and then
measuring the rise in the water level.
Because of the difficulty of determining volume with precision, especially when the sample has a
highly irregular shape, a "detour" is often taken when determining the density, by making use of the
Archimedean Principle, which describes the relation between forces (or masses), volumes and
densities of solid samples immersed in liquid:
From everyday experience, everyone is familiar with the effect that an object or body appears to
be lighter than in air – just like your own body in a swimming pool.

The key to solve this problem is the conservation of momentum. The momentum of an object is defined as the product between the mass and the velocity, and it's usually labelled with the letter 
:
The total momentum is the sum of the momentums. The initial situation is the following:
(it's not written explicitly, but I assume that the 5-kg object is still at the beginning).
So, at the beginning, the total momentum is
At the end, we have
(the mass obviously don't change, the new velocity of the 15-kg object is 1, and the velocity of the 5-kg object is unkown)
After the impact, the total momentum is
Since the momentum is preserved, the initial and final momentum must be the same. Set an equation between the initial and final momentum and solve it for 
, and you'll have the final velocity of the 5-kg object.
Solution
x(t) = 8 cos t, x(5π/6)= 8 cos(<span>5π/6)
</span>cos(5π/6)=cos(3π/6 + 2π/6 )=cos(π/3 +π/2)= - sin π/3 (cos (x+<span>π/2)= -sinx)
</span>x(t) = -8sin <span>π/3 = - 4 .sqrt3
</span>v(t) = -8sint = -8sin (π/3 +<span>π/2)= -8 cosπ/3 </span>(sin (x+π/2)= cosx)
v(t) =<span> -8 cosπ/3 = -8/2= - 4
</span>a(5π/6) = - 8cost = -(- sin π/3)= 4 .<span>sqrt3
</span>a(5π/6) = 4 .<span>sqrt3</span>
The east component of the cars displacement is 17.3 miles.
Trigonometric ratio is used to show the relationship between the sides of a right angled triangle and its angles.
Let x represent the east component of the cars displacement.
Using trigonometric ratio:
cos(30) = x / 20
x = 20 * cos(30)
x = 17.3 miles
The east component of the cars displacement is 17.3 miles.
