Answer:

The weight of object in alcohol is, W₀ = 9.6 N

Explanation:

Given,

The weight of body in air, Wₐ = 10 N

The weight of the body in water, Wₓ = 9.5 N

The density of the alcohol, ρ = 0.8 g/cm³

= 800 kg/m³

The weight of body in water = weight of object in air - weight of water displaced

9.5 N = 10 N - weight of water displaced

Weight of water displaced = 0.5 N

The mass of the displaced water, m = 0.5 / 9.8

= 0.051 kg

Therefore the volume of the water displaced,

V = m / ρ

= 0.051 / 1000

= 5.1 x 10⁻⁵ m³

<em>The volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of alcohol displaced</em>

Therefore, the mass of the alcohol displaced, = V x ρ

= 5.1 x 10⁻⁵ x 800

= 0.0405 kg

The weight of the alcohol displaced, w = 0.0405 x 9.8

= 0.4 N

Therefore,

The weight of body in alcohol = weight of object in air - weight of alcohol displaced

W₀ = W - w

= 10 N - 0.4 N

= 9.6 N

Hence, the weight of object in alcohol is, W₀ = 9.6 N

A 500 W hair dyer is used to dry hair for 6 minutes a day for 3 days. How much energy is used? A laptop uses 75 W. The cot of el

zzz [600]

Answer:

See the answers below.

Explanation:

We will solve this problem by calculating each part separately.

A 500 W hair dyer is used to dry hair for 6 minutes a day for 3 days.

Energy can be calculated by multiplying the value of the power of the equipment by the amount of time of use.

$500 [W]*[\frac{6min}{1day} ]*[\frac{1day}{24hr} ]*[\frac{1hr}{60min} ]=2.083 [W]$

The cots of electricity is 5.6 cents per kWh. How much would it cost to operate the laptop for 24 hours a day for one week?

We know that the power of the latop is 75 [W], then we can calculate the cost, multiplying the value of the power by the value of the cost by the time of use of the computer.

$0.075[kW]*5.6[\frac{cents}{kw*h}}]*[\frac{24hr}{1day}]*[1week]*[\frac{7days}{1week} ]=70.56 [cents]$

A toaster oven is 85% efficient. It uses 1200 J of energy. How much thermal energy is it producing?

Efficiency is defined as the relationship between the energy obtained on the energy delivered. Almost always the energy delivered is greater than the energy obtained (first law of thermodynamics).

Therefore.

$Effic = E_{obtained}/E_{delivered}\\0.85=E_{obtained}/1200\\E_{obtained}=1020[J]$

A piece of aluminum foil has a known surface density of

bija089 [108]

The cube has 6 equal, square, foil faces. The mass of foil for each face is (380/6) milligrams.

The surface area of each piece is (380)/(6•11) cm^2.

The length of each side of the piece is √(380/6•11) cm

That's about 2.4 cm .

It's a cute little foil cube, just under 1-inch each way.

sweet [91]

This question is in complete.The question is

A coin with a diameter 3.00 cm rolls up a 30.0° inclined plane. The coin starts out with an initial angular speed of 60.0 rad/s and rolls in a straight line without slipping. If the moment of inertia of the coin is(1/2) MR² , how far will the coin roll up the inclined plane (length along the ramp)? Hint: Conservation of mechanical energy.

Answer:

distance=0.124 m

Explanation:

$mgh=mglSin\alpha =(1/2)Iw_{i}^{2}+(1/2)mv^{2}\\ v=wR\\Solve for L\\L=((1/2)(1/2)0.015^{2}*60^{2}+(1/2)(60*0.015^{2} ))/9.8Sin30\\ L=0.124m$
