Answer:

$19.3 g/cm^3$

Explanation:

The density of a material is given by

$\rho = \frac{m}{V}$

where

m is the mass of the sample

V is its volume

for the sample of gold in this problem,

m = 38.6 g

$V=2 cm^3$

Substituting into the formula, we find the density of gold:

$\rho = \frac{38.6}{2}=19.3 g/cm^3$

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

$3.5\:\mathrm{m/s^2}$

Explanation:

Newton's 2nd law is given as $\Sigma F = ma$ .

To find the acceleration in the horizontal direction, you need the horizontal component of the force being applied.

Using trigonometry to find the horizontal component of the force:

$\cos 45^{\circ}=\frac{x}{5},\\\frac{\sqrt{2}}{{2}}=\frac{x}{5},\\x=\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}$

Use this horizontal component of the force to solve for for the acceleration of the object:

$\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}=1.0\cdot a,\\a=\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}\approx \boxed{3.5\:\mathrm{m/s^2}}$

Please explain how to solve 17 and 18

andriy [413]

Answer:

17. h = l − l cos θ

18. 1.40 m

Explanation:

Let's call d the height of the triangle. We can then say:

h = l − d

Using trig, we can write d in terms of l and θ:

d = l cos θ

h = l − l cos θ

If l = 6 m and l cos θ = 40°:

h = 6 − 6 cos 40

h ≈ 1.40
