Answer:

Explanation:

I'm not sure you can do this without just a bit more information. I can tell you what the mass of the water is when the rocks are removed. When we know that, we know the volume of the water that was displaced. whether or not this is enough information to determine the volume of the box, I'm not sure.

400 grams raises the box 1 cm.

The density of water = 1 gm / cm^3

400 grams of water = 400 mL or 400 cm^3

The volume of the displaced water = 400 cm^3

The volume a slice from the square prism is B*h

B = 400 cm^2

h = 1 cm

If the base is 400 cm^2 then each side is

s^2 = 400

sqrt(s^2)= sqrt(400)

s = 20

The volume of the box is 20^3 = 8000 cm^3

To distinguish between properties of the two major types of supernovae: massive star supernovae and white dwarf supernovae. all

const2013 [10]

In my opinion, I myself believe that there are only two supernovae. The first is the white dwarf. It makes sense because if something is too big for its size, it will "explode". Just like a basketball with too much air. Massive star supernovae is like something has reached it's full potential and cannot get any bigger or better.

Determine the thrust produced if 1.5 x 10^3 kg of gas exits the combustion chamber each second, with a speed of 4.00 x 10^3 m/s.

ozzi

Answer:

The thrust is $6\times 10^6\ N$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of gas, $m=1.5\times 10^3\ kg$

The rate at which the gas is expelling, $\dfrac{dv}{dt}=4\times 10^{3}\ m/s$

We need to find the thrust produced by the gas.

We know that force is equal to the rate of change of momentum. So,

$F=\dfrac{p}{t}$

Also, p = mv

$F=\dfrac{mv}{t}$

So,

$F=1.5\times 10^3\times 4\times 10^3\\\\F=6\times 10^6\ N$

So, the thrust is $6\times 10^6\ N$

How many lines per mm are there in the diffraction grating if the second order principal maximum for a light of wavelength 536 n

grandymaker [24]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the principle of superposition and the equations of destructive and constructive interference.

Constructive interference can be defined as

$dSin\theta = m\lambda$
