A parsec is a measurement of distance.
Using the principle of floatation.
u = w............(a)
Upthrust of fluid is equal to the weight of the object.
Let the volume of the wood be V.
The upthrust u, is related to the volume submerged in water, and that is 1/5 of it volume, that is (1/5)V = 0.2V
Formula for upthrust, u = vdg
where v = volume of fluid displaced
d = density of fluid
g = acceleration due to gravity
weight, w = mg
where m = mass
g = acceleration due to gravity
From (a)
u = w
vdg = mg Cancel out g
vd = m
The v is equal to 0.2V, which is the submerged volume. Notice that the small letter v is volume of fluid displaced, and capital V is the volume of the solid.
d is density of fluid which is water in this case, 1000 kg/m³
0.2V * 1000 = m
200V = m
Hence the mass of the object is 200V kg.
But Density of solid = Mass of solid / Volume of solid
= 200V / V
= 200 kg/m³
Density of solid = 200 kg/m³
Bending occurs when one side of the wave enters the new medium before the other side of the wave. ... The bending occurs because the two sides of the wave are traveling at different speeds.
The answer is D. time really does pass more slowly in a rest frame of reference relative to a frame of reference that is moving
Answer:
Explanation:
Let the volume below water be v . Then
buoyant force = v d g where d is density of water , g is acceleration due to gravity
= v x 1000 x g
weight of wood piece = volume x density of wood x g
= .6 x 600 x g
for equilibrium while floating
buoyant force = weight
= v x 1000 x g = .6 x 600 x g
v = .36 m²
volume above water or volume exposed = .6 - .36
= .24 m²
When immersed completely ,
buoyant force = .6 x 1000 x 9.8
= 5880 N
weight of wood
= .6 x 600 x g
= 3528 N
buoyant force is more than the weight . In order to equalise them for floating with full volume in water
weight required = 5880 - 3528
= 2352 N.
