Answer:
= 5/9
Explanation:
This is an exercise that we can solve using Archimedes' principle which states that the thrust is equal to the weight of the desalted liquid.
B = ρ_liquid g V_liquid
let's write the translational equilibrium condition
B - W = 0
let's use the definition of density
ρ_body = m / V_body
m = ρ_body V_body
W = ρ_body V_body g
we substitute
ρ_liquid g V_liquid = ρ_body g V_body
In the problem they indicate that the ratio of densities is 5/9, we write the volume of the bar
V = A h_bogy
Thus
we substitute
5/9 = 
Wow ! This will take more than one step, and we'll need to be careful
not to trip over our shoe laces while we're stepping through the problem.
The centripetal acceleration of any object moving in a circle is
(speed-squared) / (radius of the circle) .
Notice that we won't need to use the mass of the train.
We know the radius of the track. We don't know the trains speed yet,
but we do have enough information to figure it out. That's what we
need to do first.
Speed = (distance traveled) / (time to travel the distance).
Distance = 10 laps of the track. Well how far is that ? ? ?
1 lap = circumference of the track = (2π) x (radius) = 2.4π meters
10 laps = 24π meters.
Time = 1 minute 20 seconds = 80 seconds
The trains speed is (distance) / (time)
= (24π meters) / (80 seconds)
= 0.3 π meters/second .
NOW ... finally, we're ready to find the centripetal acceleration.
<span> (speed)² / (radius)
= (0.3π m/s)² / (1.2 meters)
= (0.09π m²/s²) / (1.2 meters)
= (0.09π / 1.2) m/s²
= 0.236 m/s² . (rounded)
If there's another part of the problem that wants you to find
the centripetal FORCE ...
Well, Force = (mass) · (acceleration) .
We know the mass, and we ( I ) just figured out the acceleration,
so you'll have no trouble calculating the centripetal force. </span>

Mr. Hitch taught us about sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous rocks. He described how they were formed, what they contain, and showed us samples of each. He is a good geologist.
The missing word and answer is: geologist.
