While driving his 600-kg ultra-compact electric car, a distracted driver starts crossing a drawbridge. Not realizing that the dr

awbridge is about to open, he ends up in the river below with his car. Fortunately the car stayed afloat for a while and he is able to escape before it starts sinking. (a) If the volume of the interior is 2.0 m3, what fraction of the car is immersed while it floats? (b) Eventually, water starts to leak in and gradually fills the car. What is the mass of the water that entered the car when the car starts to sinks? Density of water is 1000 kg/m3.

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

weight of car = 600 kg .

According to Archimedes principle , for free floatation ,

weight of car = weight of displaced water

600 x 9.8 = v x 10³ x 9.8 , v is volume of water displaced and 10³ kg/ m³ is density of water.

v = .6 m³

required fraction

= .6 / 2

= .3

b )

Let mass of water entering before the start of sinking of car .

mass of maximum displaced volume of water by car = 2 x 10³m³.

(600 + m ) x g = 2 x 10³ x g         [   10³ is density of water    ]

600 + m = 2000

m = 1400 kg .

What happens is a series circuit when you increase the number of bulbs?
Volgvan

The bulbs will produce lesser light than their capacity, In short they will be dimmer because the the energy will get divided in the number of bulbs.

One baked potato provides an average of 30 mg of vitamin C. If 70 potatoes weigh 20 lb., how many milligrams of vitamin C are pr
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

105 mg

Explanation:

Given that:

1 baked potato provides 30 mg of vitamin C.

So,

70 baked potatoes provide 30\times 70 mg of vitamin C

Also,

70 potatoes = 20 lb

So,

20 lb potatoes provide 30\times 70 mg of vitamin C

Thus,

1 lb potatoes provide \frac {30\times 70}{20} mg of vitamin C

<u>Thus, 105 mg of Vitamin C are provided per pound of the potatoes.</u>

in a certain experiment, a radio transmitter emits sinusoidal electromagnetic waves of frequency 105.0 mhz in opposite direction
Romashka [77]

As a result, the hollow is 10.90 meters long and the distance between the nodal planes is 1.36 meters.

<h3>Explain electromagnetic waves.</h3>

The oscillations between an electric field and a magnetic field produce waves known as electromagnetic waves, or EM waves.

By definition, we understand that the frequency equals,

f = c/λ

where,

λ = wavelength

c= Speed of light

λ = 2L / n

While the wavelength is equal to,

Where,

L = Length

n = Number of antinodes/nodes

PART A) We know that the first component's wavelength is 110 MHz, so

λ = c/ f

λ = 3*10^8 / 11*10^6

λ = 1.36m

Therefore the distance between the nodal planes is 1.36m

PART B) For this part we need to find the Length through the number of nodes (8) and the wavelength, that is,

λ` = 2l /n

L = 8*2.72/ 2

L = 10.90m

Therefore the length of the cavity is 10.90m.
