Answer:

The depth to which the hydrometer sinks is approximately 24.07 cm

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The diameter of the hydrometer tube, d = 2.3 cm

The mass of the content of the tube, m = 80 g

The density of the liquid in which the tube floats, ρ = 800 kg/m³

By Archimedes' principle, the up thrust (buoyancy) force acting on the hydrometer = The weight of the displaced liquid

When the hydrometer floats, the up-thrust is equal to the weight of the hydrometer which by Archimedes' principle, is equal to the weight of the volume of the liquid displaced by the hydrometer

Therefore;

The weight of the liquid displaced = The weight of the hydrometer, W = m·g

Where;

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

∴ W = 80 g × g

The volume of the liquid that has a mass of 80 g (0.08 kg), V = m/ρ

V = 0.08 kg/(800 kg/m³) = 0.0001 m³ = 0.0001 m³ × 1 × 10⁶ cm³/m³ = 100 cm³

The volume of the liquid displaced = 100 cm³ = The volume of the hydrometer submerged, V_h

V_h = A × h

Where;

A = The cross-sectional area of the tube = π·d²/4

h = The depth to which the hydrometer sinks

h = V_h/A

∴ h = 100 cm³/( π × 2.3²/4 cm²) ≈ 24.07 cm

The depth to which the tube sinks, h ≈ 24.07 cm.

At each corner of a square of side l there are point charges of magnitude Q, 2Q, 3Q, and 4Q.What is the magnitude and direction
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

magnitude of force on charge 2Q  = \frac{KQ^{2} }{I^{2} }

Direction of force on charge = 61 ⁰

Explanation:

The magnitude on the force on the charge can be evaluated by finding the net force acting on the charge 2Q  i.e x-component of the net force and the y-component of the net force

║F║ = \sqrt{f_{x}^{2} + f_{y}^{2}    }  =  after considering the forces coming from Q, 3Q and 4Q AND APPLYING COULOMBS LAW

magnitude of force acting on 2Q = \frac{KQ^{2} }{I^{2} }

The direction of the force on charge 2Q is calculated as

tan ∅ = \frac{f_{y} }{f_{x} } = 1.8284

therefore ∅ = tan^{-1}  1.8284

= 61⁰

A train travels a distance of 2000 km at an average speed of 120 km per hour. How long did the trip take? SHOW WORK
Igoryamba
S = d/t, s = 120, d = 2000, t = ?
Input the values,
120 = 2000/t
Make t the subject of the formula by cross multiplying, Therefore,
120t = 2000
Divide both sides by 120
t = 16.7hrs  to 1 decimal place.
If you're asked to convert it, you can.

You would like to know whether silicon will float in mercury and you know that can determine this based on their densities. Unfo
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

To convert gram / centimeter³ to kg / m³

gram / centimeter³

= 10⁻³ kg / centimeter³

= 10⁻³  / (10⁻²)³ kg / m³

= 10⁻³ / 10⁻⁶ kg / m³

= 10⁻³⁺⁶ kg / m³

= 10³ kg / m³

So we shall have to multiply be 10³ with amount in gm / cm³ to convert it into kg/m³

2.33 gram / cm³

= 2.33 x 10³ kg / m³ .

Suppose a radio signal (light) travels from Earth and through space at a speed of 3 × 10^8/ (this is the speed of light in vacuu
zlopas [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

we know that

s=vt here v is the speed and s is distance covered by the signals

given data

v=3*10^8

t=10 min we have to convert it into seconds

1 minute=60 seconds

so

10 minutes =10*60/1 =600 seconds

now putting the value of v and t we can find the value of s

s=vt

s=3*10^8*600

s=1.8*10^11m

i hope this will help you
