Answer:

Density of rock piece = 2.7 g/cm³

Explanation:

Given:

Volume of rock piece = 18 cm³

Mass of rock piece = 48.6 gram

Find:

Density of rock piece

Computation:

We know relation between density, mass and volume,

Density = Mass / Volume

Density of rock piece = Mass of rock / Volume of rock

Density of rock piece = 48.6 / 18

Density of rock piece = 2.7 g/cm³

Why is Vy negative and not positive because I solved it and it resulted in a positive number?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Explanation:

You are given the initial velocity, the displacement, and the acceleration.  You're looking for the final velocity.  So you use the equation:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

When you solve for v, you take the square root.  Your calculator will return a positive answer, but there are actually two possible answers: positive and negative.

v = ±√(v₀² + 2aΔy)

You must use the physical context of the problem.  If we take up to be the positive direction, then v must be negative, since the projectile is moving down.

Trevor and Nick are taxi drivers. Trevor drives a taxi using diesel oil while Nick drives a taxi using LPG. Whose taxi will caus
Natalija [7]

Answer:

Trevor's taxi would cause higher levels of air pollution

Explanation:

Trevor's taxi use diesel oil.

Diesel is less cleaner than LPG.

Compared to automotive pollution from petrol and diesel, pollutants from LPG-driven cars include lower amounts of petroleum hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides , sulphur oxides, ozone contamination and particulate matter.

A 0.150 kg ball is fired from toy gun with a spring with spring constant k- 150 N/m, initially compressed by a distance x 0.050
Degger [83]

Answer:

v = 4.264 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the ball, m = 0.15 kg

Spring constant of the spring, k = 150 N/m

The spring is compressed by a distance, x = 0.05 m

The pellet's initial velocity is at an angle θ (θ < 90) above the horizontal.

Let v is the final speed of the projectile when it is at a distance h = 0.800 m below its initial height. It can be calculated using the conservation of energy as :

E_i=E_f

\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2+mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

\dfrac{1}{2}\times 150\times (0.05)^2+0.15\times 9.8\times 0.8=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.15\times v^2

v = 4.264 m/s

So, the final speed of the projectile is 4.264 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
