Answer:

9/10

Explanation:

From Archimedes' principle, the buoyant force on the ice equals the weight of water displaced. Since the buoyant force equals the weight of the ice. then

ρ₁V₁g = ρ₂V₂g where ρ₁ = density of ice = 0.9 g/cm³ and V₁ = volume of ice and ρ₂ = density of water = 1 g/cm³ and V₂ = volume of water.

So. ρ₁V₁ = ρ₂V₂

V₁ = ρ₂V₂/ρ₁

= 1 g/cm³V₂/0.9 g/cm³ = 10V₂/9

Now, let x be the fraction of volume of ice submerged. So V = xV₁ = volume submerged. This volume also equals the volume of water since the submerged ice displaces its own volume of water.

So V = V₂

xV₁ = V₂

x(10V₂/9) = V₂

10x/9 = 1

x = 9/10

Answer:

a) $\vec{d} =B-A$

b) $I=\frac{B*v*d*\sin 90 \textdegree}{R}$

c) $v \approx 0.6m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Magnetic field strength $B=3.6T$

Distance traveled $d=7m$

Mass $m=4.7 kg$

Resistance $r=8.2 ohm$

Gravitational acceleration $g=9.8m/s^2$

$\theta =90 \textdegree$ Because of perpendicularity

Generally the direction of the current will be given as

$\vec{d} =B-A$

Because it opposes increases of magnetic flux

Generally the equation for induced EMF $E$ is mathematically given as

$E=B*v*d*\sin \theta$

$E=B*v*d*\sin 90 \textdegree$

Generally the equation for induced current $I$ is mathematically given as

$I=E/R$

$I=\frac{B*v*d*\sin 90 \textdegree}{R}$

Generally the the equation for force F at terminal speed is mathematically given as

$F=mg$

$mg=B*I*d*\sin 90 \textdegree$

$mg=B*(\frac{B * v * d }{R}) *d$

$v=\frac{m*g*R}{B^2*D^2}$

$v=\frac{4.7*9.8*8.2}{3.6^2*7^2}$

$v=0.59475m/s$

$v \approx 0.6m/s$

<h3>I do think parallel universes exist. There are now some scientific theories that support the idea of parallel universes beyond our own. However, the multiverse theory remains one of the most controversial theories in science.Our universe is unimaginably big. Hundreds of billions, if not trillions, of galaxies(opens in new tab) spin through space, each containing billions or trillions of stars(opens in new tab). Some researchers studying models of the universe speculate that the universe's diameter could be 7 billion light-years(opens in new tab) across. Others think it could be infinite.

u might never know. It might or might not exist in conclusion. </h3>
