Which statement is true about an object that sinks in water?

Physics
1 answer:
bogdanovich [222]4 years ago

It is about density. The less dense object will tend to float when put into the water. For example, oil is denser than water so the result of the mixture would make oil float. Sinking objects would only mean that it has an equal or greater mass than water.

The question is in the picture
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

e) 120m/s

Explanation:

When the ball reaches its highest point, its velocity becomes zero, meaning

v_0-gt = 0.

where v_0 is the initial velocity.

Solving for t we get

t = \dfrac{v_0}{g}

which is the time it takes the ball to reach the highest point.

Now, after the ball has reached its highest point, it turns around and falls downwards. After time t_0 since it had reached the highest point, the ball has traveled downwards and the velocity v_f it has gained is

v_f = gt_0,

and we are told that this is twice the initial velocity v_0; therefore,

v_f = 2v_0  = gt_0

which gives

t_0 = \dfrac{2v_0}{g}.

Thus, the total time taken to reach velocity 2v_0 is

t_{tot} = t+t_0 = \dfrac{v_0}{g}+\dfrac{2v_0}{g}

t_{tot} = \dfrac{3v_0}{g}.

This t_{tot}, we are told, is 36 seconds; therefore,

36= \dfrac{3v_0}{g},

and solving for v_0 we get:

v_0 = \dfrac{36g}{3}

v_0 = \dfrac{36s(10m/s^2)}{3}

\boxed{v_0 = 120m/s}

which from the options given is choice e.

The maximum Compton shift in wavelength occurs when a photon isscattered through 180^\circ .
vlabodo [156]

Answer: 90\°

Explanation:

The Compton Shift \Delta \lambda in wavelength when the photons are scattered is given by the following equation:

\Delta \lambda=\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)     (1)

Where:

\lambda_{c}=2.43(10)^{-12} m is a constant whose value is given by \frac{h}{m_{e}c}, being h the Planck constant, m_{e} the mass of the electron and c the speed of light in vacuum.

\theta) the angle between incident phhoton and the scatered photon.

We are told the maximum Compton shift in wavelength occurs when a photon isscattered through 180\°:

\Delta \lambda_{max}=\lambda_{c}(1-cos(180\°))     (2)

\Delta \lambda_{max}=\lambda_{c}(1-(-1))    

\Delta \lambda_{max}=2\lambda_{c}     (3)

Now, let's find the angle that will produce a fourth of this maximum value found in (3):

\frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{4}2\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)      (4)

\frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{2}\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)      (5)

If we want \frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{2}\lambda_{c}, 1-cos\theta   must be equal to 1:

1-cos\theta=1   (6)

Finding \theta:

1-1=cos\theta

0=cos\theta  

\theta=cos^{-1} (0)  

Finally:

\theta=90\°    This is the scattering angle that will produce \frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}

a spring gun initially compressed 2cm fires a 0.01kg dart straight up into the air. if the dart reaches a height it 5.5m determi
Vikki [24]

Answer:

2697.75N/m

Explanation:

Step one

This problem bothers on energy stored in a spring.

Step two

Given data

Compression x= 2cm

To meter = 2/100= 0.02m

Mass m= 0.01kg

Height h= 5.5m

K=?

Let us assume g= 9.81m/s²

Step three

According to the principle of conservation of energy

We know that the the energy stored in a spring is

E= 1/2kx²

1/2kx²= mgh

Making k subject of formula we have

kx²= 2mgh

k= 2mgh/x²

k= (2*0.01*9.81*5.5)/0.02²

k= 1.0791/0.0004

k= 2697.75N/m

Hence the spring constant k is 2697.75N/m
