Answer:

275.4 kg

Explanation:

specific gravity = 0.918

Density = 0.918 g/cm^3 = 918 kg/m^3

Volume = 100 gallons = 300 litres = 300 x 10^-3 m^3 = 0.3 m^3

Mass = volume x density = 0.3 x 918 = 275.4 kg

Answer:

 v = -v₀ / 2

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use kinematics relations.

Let's use the initial conditions to find the acceleration of the electron

            v² = v₀² - 2a y

when the initial velocity is vo it reaches just the negative plate so v = 0

           a = v₀² / 2y

now they tell us that the initial velocity is half

          v’² = v₀’² - 2 a y’

          v₀ ’= v₀ / 2

at the point where turn v = 0              

          0 = v₀² /4  - 2 a y '

          v₀² /4 = 2 (v₀² / 2y)  y’

          y = 4 y'

          y ’= y / 4

We can see that when the velocity is half, advance only ¼ of the distance between the plates, now let's calculate the velocity if it leaves this position with zero velocity.

         v² = v₀² -2a y’

         v² = 0 - 2 (v₀² / 2y) y / 4

         v² = -v₀² / 4

         v = -v₀ / 2

We can see that as the system has no friction, the arrival speed is the same as the exit speed, but with the opposite direction.

What should you avoid doing to ensure your<br> farming practises were sustainable?
saw5 [17]
Sustainable crops are grown in a different manner from industrial crops. Sustainable crop farmers focus on ensuring that their farming practices can be sustained over time and do not cause undue damage to the environment.  

•Minimal to No Pesticide Use
•Limit Environmental Damage
•Focus on Soil Health
•Sustainable Seed and Plant Varieties

A radio-controlled car increases its kinetic energy from 4 j to 12 j over a distance of 2 m. what was the average net force on t
just olya [345]
The answer to this is easy once you look at the units for Joules. 1 Joule = 1 N.m (Newton.meter). The 'Newton' is the units of force that we are trying to find, and we know the meters is 2, from the question. So you have an 8Joule or 8N.m energy difference over 2 meters.

well if we know the meters, then the real question is written as:
8N.m = ?N x 2m
so just solve for N;
N = 8N.m / 2m = 4
So F = 4N
