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.

Beta emission, alpha emission, positron emission, and electron capture are processes that result in a change in atomic number. W
Tema [17]

Alpha emission is the process results in a change in mass number. Option B is correct.

<h3>What is mass number?</h3>

The total number of protons and neutrons in an atomic nucleus is known as the mass number, often known as the atomic mass number or nucleon number.

It's about the same as the atom's atomic mass, expressed in atomic mass units.

The alpha particle is a helium nucleus with two protons and two neutrons in an alpha decay or alpha emission. The number of protons and neutrons is reduced by two as a result of this action.

The quantity of protons and neutrons is affected by gamma emission descent. Also, while electron capture has no effect on the number of neutrons, it does raise the 1 also number of protons by one.

Alpha emission is the process results in a change in mass number.

Hence option B is correct.

Describe the initial horizontal and vertical velocity of a horizontally launched projectile on Earth, as well as what happens to
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

To explain this, let's consider a tennis ball being launched from the top of a very high building.

Now, if the tennis ball is launched horizontally without any upward angle but with an initial velocity of 10 m/s. In this motion, If there is no gravity, the tennis ball would continue in motion at that same speed of 10 m/s in the horizontal direction. However, in reality, gravity causes the tennis ball to accelerate downwards at a rate of 9.8 m/s for every second. This implies that the vertical velocity component is changing at the rate of 9.8 m/s every second.

Thus, after 1 second, horizontal velocity component will remain 10 m/s and vertical component will be 9.8 m/s × 1 = 9.8 m/s downwards.

Also, after 2 seconds, the vertical velocity component will remain 10 m/s, however the vertical component will now be 9.8 × 2 = 19.6 m/s downwards.

Same procedure is repeated as t increases by 1 second.

a child's toy consists of a piece of plastic attached to a spring. the spring is compressed against the floor a distance of 2.0
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

1.7N

Explanation:

Force = kx

Where x = spring compression and

K = spring constant

K =85N/m

x = 2.0cm / 100

= 0.02m

Force = 85 x 0.02

= 1.7N

When will an object sink in water, according to Archimedes' principle?​
inna [77]

Answer:

If the buoyant force is greater than the object's weight, the object will rise to the surface and float. If the buoyant force is less than the object's weight, the object will sink. If the buoyant force equals the object's weight, the object will remain suspended at that depth.

Explanation:

Not much explaining to do here!

A cat lies on the floor. can you say that no force acts on the cat? or is it correct to say that no net force acts on the cat? e
DIA [1.3K]

Odd though it seems at first, gravity is pulling the cat down while the floor is pushing the cat up - in equal amounts. Forces are absolutely acting on the cat but they balance - so there is no net force.
