Answer:

  B)  100 J

Explanation:

Assuming the distance given is measured along the incline, the vertical change in height is (5 m)(sin 30°) = 2.5 m. Then the change in potential energy is ...

  ∆PE = mg(∆h) = (4 kg)(10 m/s^2)(2.5 m) = 100 J

A body has masses of 0.013kg and 0.012kg in oil and water respectively, if the relative density of oil is 0.875, calculate the m
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

the mass of the body is 0.02 kg.

Explanation:

Given;

relative density of the oil, \gamma _0 = 0.875

mass of the object in oil, M_o = 0.013 kg

mass of the object in water, M_w = 0.012 kg

let the mass of the object in air = M_a

weight of the oil, W_0 = M_a - 0.013

weight of the water, W_w = M_a - 0.012

The relative density of the oil is given as;

\gamma_0 = \frac{density \ of \ oil }{density \ of \ water} = \frac{W_0}{W_w} = \frac{M_a -0.013}{M_a -0.012} \\\\0.875 = \frac{M_a -0.013}{M_a -0.012}\\\\0.875(M_a - 0.012) = M_a - 0.013\\\\0.875M_a - 0.0105 = M_a -0.013\\\\0.875M_a - M_a = 0.0105 - 0.013\\\\-0.125 M_a = -0.0025\\\\M_a = \frac{0.0025}{0.125} \\\\M_a = 0.02 \ kg

Therefore, the mass of the body is 0.02 kg.
