Over [174]3 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)

A 100 kg box is suspended from two ropes. The "left rope makes an angle of 20" degrees with the vertical, and the right rope mak
GarryVolchara [31]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the box, m = 100 kg          

Left rope makes an angle of 20 degrees with the vertical, and the right rope makes an angle of 40 degrees.  

From the attached figure, the x and y component of forces is given by :

T_{1x} =-T_1 cos (20)

T_{2x} = T_2 cos (40)

mg_x = 0

T_{1y} = T_1 sin (20)

T_{2y} = T_2 sin (40)

mg_y= -mg

Let R_x and R_y is the resultant in x and y direction.

R_x=-T_1 cos (20)+T_2 cos (40)+0

R_y=T_1 sin(20)+T_2 sin(40)-mg

As the system is balanced the net force acting on it is 0. So,

-T_1 cos (20)+T_2 cos (40)+0=0.............(1)

T_1 sin(20)+T_2 sin(40)-100\times 9.8=0..................(2)

On solving equation (1) and (2) we get:  

T_1=866.86\ N (tension on the left rope)

T_2=1063.36\ N (tension on the right rope)

So, the tension on the right rope is 1063.36 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

If a box is pushed 5.0 m across a floor using a force of 35 N, how much work was done?
aniked [119]

Answer:

175J

Explanation:

Work done is given by the product of the force applied and the distance travelled as a result of that force.

Or in formula , W=F×d

Thus,

W= 35 × 5.0=175 J or 1.8 e2 J

Item 4 Which conditions produce the smallest and largest ocean waves? Choose the two correct answers.
Darya [45]

Answer:

strong winds that blow for a long time over a great distance

weak winds that blow for short periods of time with a short fetch

Explanation:

When the winds are weak and blow for short periods, we experience the smallest ocean waves but when there are strong winds over a longer duration, the largest ocean waves are seen. Therefore, the conditions to produce the smallest and largest ocean waves are strong winds that blow for a long time over a great distance and weak winds that blow for short periods of time with a short fetch.

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

1050 possible selections

Explanation:

<em>Number of red balls = 7</em>

<em>Number of blue balls = 10</em>

<em>Let blue balls be B and red balls be R</em>

<em>four balls are to be selected. At least three must be blue.</em>

the first combination is 4blue 0red

second combination is 3blue 1red

(10C4*7C0 + 10C3*7C1)

210 *1 +120 *7

210+840

=1050 possibilities
