Answer:

0.2 m

Explanation:

Diameter = 0.3 m

radius, r = 0.15 m

Length, H = 0.4 m

density of wood, d = 0.5 g/cm^3 = 500 kg/m^3

density of water, d = 1000 kg/m^3

Let h be the depth of cylinder immersed in water.

By the principle of floatation.

Buoyant force = Weight of cylinder

Volume immeresed x density of water x g = Volume of cylinder x density of wood x g

A x h x 1000 x g = A x H x 500 x g

1000 h = 500 x 0.4

h = 0.2 m

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

The capacitance is cut in half.

Explanation:

The capacitance of a plate capacitor is directly proportional to the area A of the plates and inversely proportional to the distance between the plates d. So if the distance was doubled we should expect that the capacitance would be cut in half. That can be verified by the following equation that is used to compute the capacitance in such cases:

C = (\epsilon)*(A/d)

Where \epsilon is a constant that represents the characteristics for the insulator between the plates. A is the area of the plates and d is the distance between them. When we double d we have a new capacitance, given by:

C_new = (\epsilon)*(A/2d)

C_new = (1/2)*[(\epsilon)*(A/d)]

Since C = (\epsilon)*(A/d)] we have:

C_new = (1/2)*C

In comparing sunspots to other areas of the sun's surface one can say that sunspots are...?
taurus [48]

Answer:

D. Cooler

Explanation:

The Sun's surface has a temperature ranging from 6 000 Kelvin, thus it is very hot. The radioactive reaction in the core of the Sun is a nuclear fusion reaction. This reaction ensures continuous release of high energy from the surface of the Sun.

But during the reaction, some parts becomes cooler than other parts on its surface. Which is due to the release of high amount of energy into space. The Sun's spot can be found in the cooler part of the Sun.
