Answer:

0.96 gcm¯³

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of empty beaker = 103 g

Mass of beaker + water = 361 g

Mass of beaker + oil = 351 g

Density of water = 1 gcm¯³

Density of cooking oil =?

Next, we shall determine the mass of water. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of empty beaker = 103 g

Mass of beaker + water = 361 g

Mass of water =?

Mass of water = (Mass of beaker + water) – (Mass of empty beaker)

Mass of water = 361 – 103

Mass of water = 258 g

Next, we shall determine the volume of the beaker. This can be obtained by calculating the volume of water in the beaker.

Density of water = 1 gcm¯³

Mass of water = 258 g

Volume of water =?

Density = mass /volume

1 = 258 / volume

Cross multiply

1 × volume = 258

Volume of water = 258 cm³

Thus the volume of the beaker is 258 cm³.

Next, we shall determine the mass of the cooking oil. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of empty beaker = 103 g

Mass of beaker + oil = 351 g

Mass of cooking oil =?

Mass of cooking oil = (Mass of beaker + oil) – (Mass of empty beaker)

Mass of cooking oil = 351 – 103

Mass of cooking oil = 248 g

Finally, we shall determine the density of the cooking oil. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of cooking oil = 248 g

Volume of the beaker = 258 cm³

Density of cooking oil =?

Density = mass / volume

Density = 248 / 258

Density of cooking oil = 0.96 gcm¯³

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Impulse of a force is measured by force x time or F X t

Impulse also equals change in momentum or

F x t = m v₂ - m v₁

The given case is as follows

in the first case

F x t = mv - o = mv

F = mv / t

in the second case

F₁ x 4 t = mv

F₁ = 1/4 x mv /t

F₁ = F / 4

option a) is correct .

iii )

In the last case

F₂ X t = m v/2 -0

F₂ = 1/2 x mv / t

= 1/2 x F

F₂ = F/2

Option e ) is correct.

A small object of mass 3.82 g and charge -16.5 µC is suspended motionless above the ground when immersed in a uniform electric f

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

2271.16N/C upward

Explanation:

The diagram well illustrate all the forces acting on the mass. The weight is acting downward and the force is acting upward in other to balance the weight.since the question says it is motionless, then indeed the forces are balanced.

First we determine the downward weight using

$W=mg\\g=9.81m/s^{2}$

Hence for a mass of 3.82g 0r 0.00382kg we have the weight to be

$W=0.00382kg*9.81m/s^{2}$

$W=0.0375N$

To calculate the electric field,

$E=f/q\\E=0.0375/16.5*10^{-6} \\E=2271.16N/C$

Since the charge on the mass is negative, in order to generate upward force, there must be a like charge below it that is repelling it, Hebce we can conclude that the electric field lines are upward.

Hence the magnitude of the electric force is 2271.16N/C and the direction is upward
