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.

hram777 [196]

Answer:

(a)

Average velocity = < 0, 316000, 146000> m/s

(b) < 0, 2.844, 1.314 > m

Explanation:

r1 = < 0.02, 0.04, - 0.06 > m

r2 = < 0.02, 1.62, - 0.79 > m

time, t = 5 micro second = 5 x 10^-6 s

(a) Average velocity is defined as the ratio of total displacement to the total time taken.

Displacement = r = r2 - r1

r = < 0.02 - 0.02, 1.62 - 0.04, - 0.79 + 0.06 > m

r = < 0, 1.58, - 0.73 > m

So. Average velocity = $\frac{< 0, 1.58, - 0.73 >}{5 \times 10^{-6}}$

Average velocity = $< 0, 316000, 146000> m/s$

Average velocity = < 0, 316000, 146000> m/s

(b)

Distance = velocity x time

Here time, t = 9 micro second

d = < 0, 316000, 146000> x 9 x 10^-6 m

d = < 0, 2.844, 1.314 > m

When the spacecraft is at the halfway point, how does the strength of the gravitional force on the spaceprobe by Earth compre wi

mixer [17]

Solution :

When the spacecraft is at halfway point, the distance from the Earth as well as Mars are same. We have to account the masses of the planets. The gravitational force that is exerted by the Earth is greater because of its combined mass with the space probe.

The mass of Earth is greater than the mass of Mars. Therefore, the force of Earth is more than Mars.

A pulling force is called what? A. normal B. tension C. balanced D. compression

joja [24]

There is no special name for that. Physics is usually just concerned with "forces", and doesn't specify whether the force pushes or pulls. If you want to be more specific, you can just call it a "pulling force".
I hoped this was satisfying!:)

leva [86]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Between r = 0 and r = r₁

Electric field will be zero . It is so because no charge lies in between r = 0 and r = r₁ .

b ) From r = r₁ to r = r₂

At distance r , charge contained in the sphere of radius r

volume charge density x 4/3 π r³

q = Q x r³ / R³

Applying Gauss's law

4πr² E = q / ε₀

4πr² E = Q x r³ / ε₀R³

E= Q x r / (4πε₀R³)

E ∝ r .

c )

Outside of r = r₂

charge contained in the sphere of radius r = Q

Applying Gauss's law

4πr² E = q / ε₀

4πr² E = Q / ε₀

E = Q / 4πε₀r²

E ∝ 1 / r² .
