Explain why a steel block sinks but a steel ship floats

1 answer:

uysha [10]3 years ago

Answer:

Fluids exert forces on objects because of many molecules of the fluid that continuously collide with the surfaces of the object immersed in the fluid. ... A steel boat floats on water but a steel block does not because the block has more weight than the steel boat due to the buoyant force.

A rock is thrown upward from the level ground in such a way that the maximum height of its flight is equal to its horizontal ran

marshall27 [118]

Answer

a) For the rock

$\dfrac{v_t^2sin 2\theta}{g} = \dfrac{v_t^2sin^2\theta}{2g}$

$2sin\thetacos\theta = \dfrac{sin^2\theta}{2}$

$2cos\theta = \dfrac{sin\theta}{2}$

$tan\theta = 4$

$\theta = tan^{-1} 4$

$\theta = 76^0$

b) $\theta = 45^0$ for maximum range

$\dfrac{d_{max}}{d}=\dfrac{(v_tcos 45^0)(2v_tsin 45^0)g}{(v_tcos 76^0)(2v_tsin 76^0)g}$

$\dfrac{d_{max}}{d}=\dfrac{0.707\times 0.707)}{0.97\times 0.242}$

$\dfrac{d_{max}}{d}=2.129$

$d_{max}=2.129 d$

c) The value of θ is the same on every planet as g divides out.
