The density of a material is calculated by:

Physics
1 answer:
anyanavicka [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The density of the material is defined as the mass of the material to its volume.

                           ρ = M / V

Explanation:

The density of the material is a scalar quantity.

If the mass and the volume of the material is known the density of the material can be calculated using the formula,

                                     ρ = M / V

The mass of the material can be found using a physical balance.

The volume of a geometrically symmetrical material can be found using the geometrical measurement. For a brick,

                                              V = l x b x h

For non-geometrically shaped material the volume can be found from the displacement method using water.

You throw a baseball directly upward at time t = 0 at an initial speed of 12.3 m/s. What is the maximum height the ball reaches
Semmy [17]

Explanation:

At the maximum height, the ball's velocity is 0.

v² = v₀² + 2a(x - x₀)

(0 m/s)² = (12.3 m/s)² + 2(-9.80 m/s²)(x - 0 m)

x = 7.72 m

The ball reaches a maximum height of 7.72 m.

The times where the ball passes through half that height is:

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

(7.72 m / 2) = (0 m) + (12.3 m/s) t + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) t²

3.86 = 12.3 t - 4.9 t²

4.9 t² - 12.3 t + 3.86 = 0

Using quadratic formula:

t = [ -b ± √(b² - 4ac) ] / 2a

t = [ 12.3 ± √(12.3² - 4(4.9)(3.86)) ] / 9.8

t = 0.368, 2.14

The ball reaches half the maximum height after 0.368 seconds and after 2.14 seconds.

WheN a car is driven some distance the air pressure in the tyre increases,why?
KatRina [158]
Over the course of a long drive, as a result of alternating between braking and acceleration and of course steering, tires get heated up. When this happens, the air within the tires gets heated up, causing the air within the tire to expand. This expanding air exerts force on the tire from inside thus increasing tire pressure.

A skateboarder has an acceleration of −1.9 m/s2. If her initial speed is 6 m/s, how long does it take her to stop?
SSSSS [86.1K]
You said that she's losing 1.9 m/s of her speed every second.

So it'll take

             (6 m/s) / (1.9 m/s²)  =  3.158 seconds  (rounded)

to lose all of her initial speed, and stop.

The skateboarder has a mass of 100 kg. When traveling downward from E to D, he reaches a velocity of 11 m/s. Calculate his kinet
patriot [66]

6050 J is the kinetic energy at D

<u>Explanation:</u>

In physics, the object's kinetic energy (K.E) defined as the energy it possesses during movement. It can be defined as the required work to accelerate a certain body weight in order to rest at a certain speed. When the body receives this energy as it speeds up (accelerates), it retains this energy unless speed varies. The equation is given as,

           K . E=\frac{1}{2} \times m \times v^{2}

Where,

m - mass of an object

v - velocity of the object

Here,

Given data:

m  = 100 kg

v = 11 m/s

By substituting the given values in the above equation, we get

            K . E=\frac{1}{2} \times 100 \times(11)^{2}=\frac{1}{2} \times 100 \times 121=\frac{12100}{2}=6050\ \mathrm{J}

The visible spectrum refers to the tiny portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that we ________.
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

are able to see/observe

Explanation:

Humans are not able to see most wavelengths in the universe--but there is a select range that is visible to our eyes. This (which is usually shown on an electromagnetic spectrum diagram/chart/depiction by a small portion of rainbow) is the visible light spectrum
