How can you use the density of an object to predict whether it will sink or float?

Physics

Bas_tet [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

If an object has a higher density than the fluid it is in (fluid can mean liquid or gas), it will sink. If it has a lower density, it will float. Density is determined by an object's mass and volume. If two objects take up the same volume, but have one has more mass, then it also has a higher density.

The density of an object determines whether it will float or sink in another substance. An object will float if it is less dense than the liquid it is placed in. An object will sink if it is more dense than the liquid it is placed in.

What is the meaning of the saying "the power of a lens is 1 dioptre "​
timama [110]

Answer: 1 dioptre of power of a lens is defined as the unit of measuring the power of optical lens Or curved mirror which is equal to the reciprocal of the focal length. The focal length is measured in the meter. 1 dioptre is equal to 1/m where m is the focal length. Basically dioptre is the SI unit of optical power of the lens.

A basketball player grabbing a rebound jumps 76.0 cm vertically. How much total time (ascent and descent) does the player spend.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer: Part(a)=0.041 secs, Part(b)=0.041 secs

Explanation: Firstly we assume that only the gravitational acceleration is acting on the basket ball player i.e. there is no air friction

now we know that

a=-9.81 m/s^2  ( negative because it is pulling the player downwards)

we also know that

s=76 cm= 0.76 m ( maximum s)

using kinetic equation

v^2=u^2+2as

where v is final velocity which is zero at max height and u is it initial

hence

u^2=-2(-9.81)*0.76

u=3.8615 m/s\\

now we can find time in the 15 cm ascent

s=ut+0.5at^2

0.15=3.861*t+0.5*9.81t^2\\

using quadratic formula

t=\frac{-3.861+\sqrt{3.86^2-4*0.5*9.81(-0.15)} }{2*0.5*9.81}

t=0.0409 sec

the answer for the part b will be the same

To find the answer for the part b we can find the velocity at 15 cm height similarly using

v^2=u^2+2as

where s=0.76-0.15

as the player has traveled the above distance to reach 15cm to the bottom

v^2=0^2 +2*(9.81)*(0.76-0.15)

v=3.4595

when the player reaches the bottom it has the same velocity with which it started which is 3.861

hence the time required to reach the bottom 15cm is

t=\frac{3.861-3.4595}{9.81}

t=0.0409

Lelu [443]

a 1.25 kg block is attached to a spring with spring constant 17.0 n/m . while the block is sitting at rest, a student hits it with a hammer and almost instantaneously gives it a speed of 46.0 cm/s .The amplitude of the subsequent oscillations 48.13 cm/s

a 1.25 kilogram block is fastened to a spring with a 17.0 newtons per meter spring constant. Given that K is equal to 14 Newtons per meter and mass equals 10.5 kg. The block is then struck with a hammer by a student while it is at rest, giving it a speedo of 46.0 cm for a brief period of time. The required energy provided by the hammer, which is half mv squared, is transformed into potential energy as a result of the succeeding oscillations. This is because we know that energy is still available for consultation. So access the amplitude here from here. He will therefore be equal to and by. Consequently, the Newton's spring constant is 14 and the value is 10.5. The velocity multiplied by 0.49

Speed at X equals 0.35 into amplitude, or vice versa. At this point, the spirit will equal half of K X 1 squared plus half. Due to the fact that this is the overall energy, square is equivalent to half of a K square or an angry square. amplitude is 13 and half case 14 x one is 0.35. calculate that is equal to initial velocities of 49 squares and masses of 10.5. This will be divided in half and start at about 10.5 into the 49-square-minus-14. 13.42 into the entire square in 20.35. dividing by 10.5 and taking the square as a result. 231 6.9 Six centimeters per square second. 10.5 into 49 sq. 14. 2 into a 13.42 square entire. then subtract 10.5 from the result to get the square. So that is 48.13cm/s.
