Explain how to determine the volume of an irregularly shaped object such as a rock

alexira [117]

If you have no way to accurately measure all of the object's bumps and dimples, then the only way to measure its volume is by means of fluid displacement.

-- Put some water into a graduated (marked) container, read the amount of water, drop the object into the container, and read the new volume in the container. The volume of the object is the difference between the two readings.

-- Alternatively, stand an unmarked container in a large pan, and fill it to the brim. Slowly slowly lower the object into the unmarked container, while the pan catches the water that overflows from it. When the object is completely down in the container, carefully remove the container from the pan, and measure the volume of the water in the pan. It's equal to the volume of the object.

A young kid of mass m = 36 kg is swinging on a swing. The length from the top of the swing set to the seat is L = 3.5 m. The boy

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of boy=36 kg

length of swing=3.5 m

Let T be the tension in the swing

At top point $mg-T=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

where v=velocity needed to complete circular path

Th-resold velocity is given by $mg-0=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

$v=\sqrt{gr}=\sqrt{9.8\times 3.5}=5.85 m/s$

So apparent weight of boy will be zero at top when it travels with a velocity of $v=\sqrt{gr}$

To get the velocity at bottom conserve energy at Top and bottom

At top $E_T=mg\times 2L+\frac{mv^2}{2}$

Energy at Bottom $E_b=\frac{mv_0^2}{2}$

Comparing two as energy is conserved

$v_0^2=4gl+gl$

$v_0^2=5gL$

$v_0=\sqrt{5gL}=13.09 m/s$

Apparent weight at bottom is given by

$W=\frac{mv_0^2}{L}-mg=\frac{36\times 13.09^2}{3.5}+36\times 9.8=2115.23 N$

The propeller of an airplane is at rest when the pilot starts the engine; and its angular acceleration is a constant value. Two

Maurinko [17]

Answer:0.318 revolutions

Explanation:

Given

Initially Propeller is at rest i.e. $\omega _0=0 rad/s$

after $t=10 s$

$\omega =10 rad/s$

using $\omega =\omega _0+\alpha t$

$10=0+\alpha \cdot 10$

$\alpha =1 rad/s^2$

Revolutions turned in 2 s

$\theta =\omega _0t+\frac{\alpha t^2}{2}$

$\theta =0+\frac{1\times 2^2}{2}$

$\theta =2 rad$

To get revolution $\frac{\theta }{2\pi }$

= $\frac{2}{2\pi}=0.318\ revolutions$

Help. I need to find the degree using the sine law.

Marina CMI [18]

Use pythagorean theorem
$a ^{2} + b {}^{2} = c {}^{2}$
to find the opposite side, which is 7.3

so then you can just use inverse sinA=7.3/10 which equals 46.9 degrees
