The answer to this question lies in the definition of density. One material will just float over another if its density is smaller. If one material is denser than the other, it will sink. Density can be defined as the mass per unit volume of a substance at a given pressure and temperature. Thus, for a material to float in water, it does not depend on the weight, or rather on the mass, but on the distribution of the mass by the volume occupied, that is, of the density. The more distributed the mass, that is, the larger its volume, the less dense the object and it will float.


Object C has the lowest density<span>
65 N or 6.5 Kg ------------ 6 N or 6 Kg

This effective mass under water will be its actual mass minus the mass of the fluid displaced. 

The buoyant force on a submerged object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced.
Weight of object - buoyant force on object (the mass of the fluid displaced)

6Kg - 6.5Kg= - 0.5Kg

Answer:

C

Explanation:

As we know density is the ratio of mass to volume. As per the given data in table, Buoyant force is the repulsive force which is applied by the water or liquid in upward direction when an object is placed or merged in the liquid. An object will sink only when the buoyant force will be less than than the force applied from upward direction on that object, hence it will have greater density.

Of all the options available, only option C is the object which has the lowest density.

In this case the buoyant force is greater than the weight of the object hence the body will not sink, rather it will float on surface hence it has the lowest density of all.

A biker goes out for a ride and begins riding North at 18 km/h for 200 minutes, then the driver turns around and rides at 12 km/
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

Explanation:

18 km / h

= 300 m / min

12 km / h = 200 m / min

distance travelled in 200 minutes = 300 x 200 = 60000 m

distance travelled in 50 minute in return journey = 200 x 50 = 10000 m

total distance travelled = 70000 m

total time = 250 minute

speed = 70000 / 250

= 280 m / min

= 16.8 km / h

Total displacement = 60000 - 10000 = 50000 m

total time = 250 min

velocity = 50000 / 250

= 200 m / min

= 12 km / h

How much time does it take light to travel from the moon to the earth, a distance of 384000 km?
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

1.28second

Explanation:

The speed of light is constant everywhere, it is

299,792,458m/s=299,792.458km/s

Therefore it takes

\frac{384000}{299792458}  = 1.28sec

A 615 N student standing on a scale in an elevator notices that the scale reads 645 N. From this information, the student knows
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

The elevator must be moving upward.

Explanation:

During the motion of an elevator, the weight of the person deviates from his or her actual weight. This temporary weight during the motion is referred to as "Apparent Weight". So, when the elevator is moving downward, the apparent weight of the person becomes less than his or her actual weight.

On the other hand, for the upward motion of the elevator, the apparent weight of the person becomes more than the actual weight of that person.

Since the apparent weight (645 N) of the student, in this case, is greater than the actual weight (615 N) of the student.

<u>Therefore, the elevator must be moving upward.</u>

A person with normal vision can focus on objects as close as a few centimeters from the eye up to objects infinitely far away. T
NeTakaya

Answer:

a)   f₁ = 3.50 m ,  b)     f₂ = 0.84 m  

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the constructor equation

          1 / f = 1 / p + 1 / q

where f is the focal length, p is the distance to the object and q is the distance to the image

a) the distance where the image should be placed is q = 3.50 m and the object is located at infinity p = ∞

           1 / f₁ = 1 /∞ + 1 / 3.50

           f₁ = 3.50 m

b) in this case the image is at q = -0.600 m and the object p = 0.350 m

           1 / f₂ = 1 / 0.350 -1 / 0.600

the negative sign, is because the image is in front of the object

           1 / f₂ = 1,1905

            f₂ = 1 / 1,1905

            f₂ = 0.84 m
