Well it is due to the fact that when you
submerge
the wooden block into the cylinder. The displacement of water from the initial-measurement (before the block was submerge) to finial-measurement will be the volume of wooden block.
Note: In cases of floating objects. You can always add a sinker to it to submerge the object.
But
you will need to take into account the volume of the sinker and minus off the added volume of sinker.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given that,
An object starts from rest at the origin (x₀ = 0) and travels in a straight line with a constant acceleration (a = constant).
The relation between the position (x) and time (t) is given by :
Let v is the velocity of the object.
Let a is the acceleration of the object. It is given by :
So, the acceleration of the object is . Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
Explanation:
The period equation for a pendulum is given by:
and we know that T = 1/f, where f is the frequency, so we will have:
Now, we just need to solve this equation for L.
- g is the gravity in Bogota (g=9.78 m/s^{2})
- f is 10 Hz
- L is the lenght of the pendulum
I hope it helps you!
Answer:
The velocity of sound of an echo is given as:
v = 2d/t, where d is the distance the sound source and the reflecting surface.
The time take for the stroke to be heard is 2s, because the rate is one stoke per second(one stroke in 1s). It means it will be heard after 2s, after the reflection of the sound wave.
v is speed of sound in air(Value 240m/s)
Therefore, d = vt/2 = (340 x 2)/2
d = 340m.
Sally is 340m away.
Explanation:
The above question is an application of echo.
Echo is a sound heard after the reflection of sound wave.
The distance covered will be twice the distance between the source of the sound and the reflecting surface. This is because the sound will travel a certain distance to a reflecting surface and travels back equal distance to the source after getting reflected.
