Answer:
Ice is water in solid phase, in this phase, the particles are very close together and relatively in fixed positions.
As the temperature starts to increase (thermal energy), also does the kinetic energy of the particles (so we have a change from thermal energy to kinetic energy), so they start to move "more", and the position of the particles starts to be less "fixed". There is a point where the particles have enough energy, and this point is where the phase of the water changes from solid to liquid phase (the fusion point). After this point the water can not hold his shape, and takes the shape of the container where it is.
Padded dashboards make automobiles safer because it will increase the time required to stop your head from moving forward during an accident. The increased stopping time results in a smaller force being applied to the person's head.
Answer:
2.464 cm above the water surface
Explanation:
Recall that for the cube to float, means that the volume of water displaced weights the same as the weight of the block.
We calculate the weight of the block multiplying its density (0.78 gr/cm^3) times its volume (11.2^3 cm^3):
weight of the block = 0.78 * 11.2^3 gr
Now the displaced water will have a volume equal to the base of the cube (11.2 cm^2) times the part of the cube (x) that is under water. Recall as well that the density of water is 1 gr/cm^3.
So the weight of the volume of water displaced is:
weight of water = 1 * 11.2^2 * x
we make both weight expressions equal each other for the floating requirement:
0.78 * 11.2^3 = 11.2^2 * x
then x = 0.78 * 11.2 cm = 8.736 cm
This "x" is the portion of the cube under water. Then to estimate what is left of the cube above water, we subtract it from the cube's height (11.2 cm) as follows:
11.2 cm - 8.736 cm = 2.464 cm
