The scale would need 10 aluminum cubes on one side. Figure out how many paper clips would be needed on the other side to balance this. You have to use more than one aluminum cube because you need to have enough cubes so that you get a whole number mass. 10 cubes gives you a total mass of 27 g for the aluminum.
Answer and Explanation:
a. An oxygen-filled balloon is not able to float in the air, because the oxygen inside the balloon is of the same density, that is, the same "weight" as the oxygen outside the balloon and present in the atmosphere. The balloon can only float if the gas inside it is less dense than atmospheric oxygen. Helium gas is less dense than atmospheric gas, so if a balloon is filled with helium gas, that balloon will be able to float because of the difference in density.
b. The ship is able to float in the water because its steel construction is hollow and full of air. This makes the average density of this ship less than the density of water, which makes the ship lighter than water and for this reason, this ship is able to float. In addition, the ship is partially immersed, allowing the weight of the ship on the water to counteract the buoyant force that the water promotes on the ship. Weight and buoyant are two opposing forces that keep the ship afloat.
Answer:
1. 2.5s
Explanation:
1. For time, divide Distance / speed
25m / 10
=2.5s
Answer:
mas of water displaced = 41.4 g
Explanation:
Weight in air = True weight = 45 g
Apparent weight = 3.6 g
Apparent weight = True weight - Buoyant force
Buoyant force = 45 g - 3.6 g = 41.4 g
Weight of water displaced = Buoyant force
Weight of water displaced = 41.4 g dyne
mas of water displaced = 41.4 g
Answer:
24 cm/s
Explanation:
Applying
Pythagoras theorem,
a² = b²+c²............. Equation 1
Where a = resultant, b = vertical component, c = horizontal component
From the question,
Given: a = 26 cm/s, c = 10 cm/s
Substitute these values into equation 1
26² = b²+10²
676 = b²+100
b² = 676-100
b² = 576
b = √576
b = 24 cm/s
