A metal block has a density of 5000 kg per cubic meter and a mass of 15,000 kg. What is its volume?

Naily [24]

Taking into account the definition of density, the volume of the metal block is 3 m³.

<h3>What is density</h3>

Density is defined as the property that matter, whether solid, liquid or gas, has to compress into a given space.

In other words, density is a quantity that allows us to measure the amount of mass in a certain volume of a substance.

Then, the expression for the calculation of density is the quotient between the mass of a body and the volume it occupies:

$density=\frac{mass}{volume}$

From this expression it can be deduced that density is inversely proportional to volume: the smaller the volume occupied by a given mass, the higher the density.

<h3>Volume of the metal block</h3>

In this case, you know that:

Density= 5000 $\frac{kg}{m^{3} }$
Mass= 15000 kg
Volume= ?

Replacing in the definition of density:

$5000 \frac{kg}{m^{3} } =\frac{15000 kg}{volume}$

Solving:

volume×5000 $\frac{kg}{m^{3} }$ = 15000 kg

volume= $\frac{15000 kg}{5000 \frac{kg}{m^{3} }}$

<u><em>volume= 3 m³</em></u>

In summary, the volume of the metal block is 3 m³.

There was an airplane crash, every single person on board died, but yet two people survived. How is this possible?

serg [7]

If everyone died then the too people were not on the plane they were near by when the plane crashed and were not onbard.

An object-spring system undergoes simple harmonic motion with an amplitude A. Does the total energy change if the mass is double

son4ous [18]

Answer: No, The energy will remain the same

Explanation: Doubling the mass and leaving the amplitude unchanged won't have any effect on the total energy of the system.

At maximum displacement, E=0.5kA^2

Where E = total energy

K = spring constant

A = Amplitude

From the formula above : Total Energy is independent of mass,. Therefore, total energy won't be affected by Doubling the mass value of the object.

Also when the object is at a displacement 'x' from its equilibrium position.

E = Potential Energy(P.E) + Kinetic Energy(K.E)

P.E = 0.5kx^2

Where x = displacement from equilibrium position

E = Total Energy

K. E= E-0.5kx^2

From the relation above, total energy is independent of its mass and therefore has no effect on the total energy.

A 0.140-kg baseball is dropped from rest from a height of 1.8 m above the ground. It rebounds to a height of 1.4 m. What change

aliina [53]

Answer:

$\Delta p=-1.56\ kg-m/s$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the baseball, m = 0.14 kg

It is dropped form a height of 1.8 m above the ground. Let u is the velocity when it hits the ground. Using the conservation of energy as :

$u=\sqrt{2gh}$

h = 1.8 m

$u=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 1.8}$

u = 5.93 m/s

Let v is the speed of the ball when it rebounds. Again using the conservation of energy to find it :

$v=\sqrt{2gh'}$

h' = 1.4 m

$v=-\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 1.4}$

v = -5.23 m/s

The change in the momentum of the ball is given by :

$\Delta p=m(v-u)$

$\Delta p=0.14(-5.23-5.93)$

$\Delta p=-1.56\ kg-m/s$

So, the change in the ball's momentum occurs when the ball hits the ground is 1.56 kg-m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

How does radiation transfer thermal energy from the Sun to Earth?

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

The thermal energy is carried by electromagnetic waves

Explanation:

There are three types of transfer of heat (thermal energy):

- Conduction: conduction occurs when two objects/two substances are in contact with each other. The heat is transferred from the hotter object to the colder object by the collisions between the molecules of the two mediums.

- Convection: convection occurs when a fluid is heated by an external source of heat. The part of the fluid closer to the heat source gets warmer, therefore it becomes less dense and it rises, and it is replaced by the colder part of the fluid, which is colder. Then, this part of fluid is heated as well, so it gets warmer, it rises, etc.. in a cycle.

- Radiation: radiation occurs when thermal energy is carried by electromagnetic waves. Since electromagnetic waves do not need a medium to propagate, this is the only method of heat transfer that can occur through a vacuum (so, in space as well).

Indeed, the Sun emits a lot of electromagnetic radiation, which travels through space and eventually reaches the Earth, heating it.
