Answer:

Gasoline will float

Asphalt will sink

Cork will float

Explanation:

Simply compare the value of each object's density to that of the sea water (1.025 g/ml). If the density of the object is less than that of the water, the object will float due to the buoyance force.

Contrarily, if the density of the object is larger than that of sea water, the object will sink.

Gasoline, with density 0.66 g/ml which is less than that of sea water, will float.

Gasoline, with density 1.2 g/ml which is more than that of sea water, will sink.

Cork, with density 0.26 g/ml which is less than that of sea water, will float.

The boiling point of water is 91.30 °C on the

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

196.34 °F

Explanation:

To convert from degrees celsius to degrees fahrenheit, use this equation:

(°C * 9/5) + 32 = °F

So, using this equation:

(91.30 * 9/5) + 32 = °F

196.34 + 32 = °F

°F = 196.34

Hope this helps!

By quadrupling the mass of the body hanging on the thread what will become the period of oscillation?

nikklg [1K]

Well, the tension in the thread will probably quadruple, but the hanging body will continue to just hang there.

The question gives us no evidence that it is doing any oscillating, and there's no reason for it to start just because it suddenly got heavier.

A hayride wagon is going down a spooky country road at 15 m/s when a Scarecrow appears in the roadway. The man at the wheel of t

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

d = 68.18 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity, u = 15 m/s

Finally it comes to stop, v = 0

Acceleration, a = -1.65 m/s²

Time, t = 2.5 s

We need to find the distance covered by the hayride before coming to a stop. Let d is the distance covered. Using third equation of motion to find it :

$v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\d=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\\d=\dfrac{-(15)^2}{2\times -1.65}\\\\d=68.18\ m$

So, the hayride will cover a distance of 68.18 m.
