The density of a substance is its mass per unit volume. 

Physics
1 answer:
Over [174]2 years ago
7 0

Answers:

a) kg/m^{3}

b) derived

Explanation:

Density D is a characteristic property of substances and materials and is defined as the relationship between the mass m and volume V of a specific substance or material, as shown below:

D=\frac{m}{V}

This means density is inversely proportional to volume.

In addition, density is a derived unit, because is based on two basic units of the International Sistem of Units: Mass (kilograms) and Volume (cubic meters)

Every football field has two 300kg field goal posts separated by 110m of football field (that includes the endzones). What is th
Mama L [17]

Answer:

4.96×10¯¹⁰ N

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass 1 (M1) = 300 Kg

Mass 2 (M2) = 300 Kg

Separating distance (r) = 110 m

Gravitational constant (G) = 6.67×10¯¹¹ Nm²/Kg²

Gravitational force (F) =?

The gravitational force between the two goal posts can be obtained as follow:

F = GM1M2 / r²

F = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 300 × 300 / 110²

F = 6.003×10¯⁶ / 12100

F = 4.96×10¯¹⁰ N

Therefore the gravitational force between the two goal posts is 4.96×10¯¹⁰ N

A ball of mass m on a string of length L is attached to a pivot. The ball is released from rest while the string is parallel to
mash [69]

Answer:

L/2

Explanation:

Neglect any air or other resistant, for the ball can wrap its string around the bar, it must rotate a full circle around the bar. This means the ball should be able to swing to the top position where it's directly above the bar. By the law of energy conservation, this happens when the ball is at the same level as where it's previously released vertically. It means the swinging radius around the bar must be at least half of the string length.

So the distance d between the bar and the pivot should be at least L/2

A student throws a rock upwards. The rock reaches a maximum height 2.4 seconds after it was released.
Allisa [31]

Answer:

23.52 m/s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Time taken (t) to reach the maximum height = 2.4 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Initial velocity (u) =..?

At the maximum height, the final velocity (v) is zero. Thus, we can obtain how fast the rock (i.e initial velocity)

was thrown as follow:

v = u – gt (since the rock is going against gravity)

0 = u – (9.8 × 2.4)

0 = u – 23.52

Collect like terms

0 + 23.52 = u

u = 23.52 m/s

Therefore, the rock was thrown at a velocity of 23.52 m/s.

Mary travelled 70 miles/hour due north. This is an example of what?
kolezko [41]
I believe this would be an example of Mary's velocity. We have her speed and direction which is all you need to find velocity.

Two protons are 9.261 fm apart. (1 fm= 1 femtometer = 1 x 10^-15 m.) What is the ratio of the electric force to the gravitationa
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

1.24\times 10^{36}

Explanation:

q = magnitude of charge on each proton = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

m = mass of each proton = 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

r = distance between the two protons = 1 x 10⁻¹⁵ m

Electric force between the two protons is given as

F_{e} = \frac{kq^{2}}{r^{2}}

F_{e} = \frac{(9\times 10^{9})(1.6\times 10^{-19})^{2}}{(1\times 10^{-15})^{2}}

F_{e} = 230.4 N

Gravitational force between the two protons is given as

F_{g} = \frac{Gm^{2}}{r^{2}}

F_{g} = \frac{(6.67\times 10^{-11})(1.67\times 10^{-27})^{2}}{(1\times 10^{-15})^{2}}

F_{g} = 1.86\times 10^{-34} N

Ratio is given as

Ratio =\frac{F_{e}}{F_{g}}

Ratio =\frac{230.4}{1.86\times 10^{-34}}

Ratio = 1.24\times 10^{36}
