Bowling balls are roughly the same size, but come in a variety of weights. Given its official radius of roughly 0.110 m, calcula
velikii [3]

Answer:

6.1328 kg

60.16284 N

Explanation:

r = Radius of ball = 0.11 m

\rho = Density of fluid = 1.1\times 10^3\ kg/m^3 (Assumed)

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

m = Mass of ball

V = Volume of ball = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

The weight of the bowling ball will balance the buouyant force

W=F_b\\\Rightarrow mg=V\rho g\\\Rightarrow m=\frac{V\rho g}{g}\\\Rightarrow m=V\rho\\\Rightarrow m=\frac{4}{3}\pi 0.11^3\times 1.1\times 10^3\\\Rightarrow m=6.1328\ kg

The mass of the bowling ball will be 6.1328 kg

Weight will be 6.1328\times 9.81=60.16284\ N

If an 800.-kg sports car slows to 13.0 m/s to check out an accident scene and the 1200.-kg pick-up truck behind him continues tr
Alborosie

Answer: 20.2 m/s

Explanation:

From the question above, we have the following data;

M1 = 800kg

M2 = 1200kg

V1 = 13m/s

V2 = 25m/s

U (common velocity) =?

M1V1 + M2V2 = (M1 + M2). U

(800*13) + (1200*25) = (800+1200) * U

10400 + 30000 = 2000u

40400 = 2000u

U = 40400 / 2000

U = 20.2 m/s

The acceleration vector of a particle in projectile motion ________.
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Points downward, and its magnitude is 9.8 m/s^2

Explanation:

The motion of a projectile consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform horizontal motion, with constant velocity and zero acceleration. In fact, there are no forces acting on the projectile along the horizontal direction (if we neglect air resistance), so the acceleration along this direction is zero.

- A vertical motion, with constant acceleration g = 9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground (downward), due to the presence of gravity wich "pulls" the projectile downward.

The total acceleration of the projectile is given by the resultant of the horizontal and vertical components of the acceleration. But we said that the horizontal component is zero, therefore the total acceleration corresponds just to its vertical component, therefore it is a vector with magnitude 9.8 m/s^2 which points downward.

If a hot steel tool of 1200°C was put in a bucket to cool and the bucket contained 15L of water of 15°C, and the water temperatu
Mashcka [7]

3.6 kg.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

How much heat does the hot steel tool release?

This value is the same as the amount of heat that the 15 liters of water has absorbed.

Temperature change of water:

\Delta T = T_2 - T_1= 48\; \textdegree{\text{C}}- 15\; \textdegree{\text{C}} = 33 \; \textdegree{\text{C}}.

Volume of water:

V = 15 \; \text{L} = 15 \; \text{dm}^{3} = 15 \times 10^{3} \; \text{cm}^{3}.

Mass of water:

m = \rho \cdot V = 1.00 \; \text{g} \cdot \text{cm}^{-3} \times 15 \times 10^{3} \; \text{cm}^{3} = 15 \times 10^{3} \; \text{g}.

Amount of heat that the 15 L water absorbed:

Q = c\cdot m \cdot \Delta T = 4.18 \; \text{J} \cdot \text{g}^{-1} \cdot \textdegree{\text{C}}^{-1} \times 15 \times 10^{3} \; \text{g} \times 33 \; \textdegree{\text{C}} = 2.06910 \times 10^{6}\; \text{J}.

What's the mass of the hot steel tool?

The specific heat of carbon steel is 0.49 \; \text{J} \cdot \text{g}^{-1} \cdot \textdegree{\text{C}}^{-1}.

The amount of heat that the tool has lost is the same as the amount of heat the 15 L of water absorbed. In other words,

Q(\text{absorbed}) = Q(\text{released}) =2.06910 \times 10^{6}\; \text{J}.

\Delta T = T_2 - T_1 = 1200\; \textdegree{\text{C}} -{\bf 48}\; \textdegree{\text{C}} = 1152\; \textdegree{\text{C}}.

m = \dfrac{Q}{c\cdot \Delta T} = \dfrac{2.06910 \times 10^{6} \; \text{J}}{0.49\; \text{J} \cdot \text{g}^{-1} \cdot \textdegree{\text{C}}^{-1} \times 1152\; \textdegree{\text{C}}} = 3.6 \times 10^{3} \; \text{g} = 3.6 \; \text{kg}.
