Density=mass/volume therefore volume=mass/density; 55g/11.4g/cm^3= 4.82cm^3

Answer:

Volume, $V=4.82\ cm^3$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the lead ball, m = 55 grams

Density of lead ball, $d=11.4\ g/cm^3$

We need to find the volume of the ball. The formula of density is given by :

$d=\dfrac{m}{V}$

$V=\dfrac{m}{d}$

$V=\dfrac{55\ g}{11.4\ g/cm^3}$

$V=4.82\ cm^3$

So, the volume of the the lead ball is

$V=4.82\ cm^3$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

10. How do you use a triple-beam balance? Fill in the blanks.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

1st – Place the film canister on the scale.

2nd – Slide the large weight to the right until the arm drops below the line and then move it back one notch.

3rd – Repeat this process with the top weight. When the arm moves below the line, back it up one groove.

4th – Slide the small weight on the front beam until the lines match up.

5th – Add the amounts on each beam to find the total mass to the nearest tenth of a gram.

Explanation:

The triple beam balance is an instrument that is used in measuring the mass of substances to a very high degree of precision. The reading error is given by ±0.05 grams. The triple beam balance as the name implies has three beams that measure substances of different mass levels.

The beams are categorized as small, medium, and large. There is a balance on which the substance to be weighed is placed directly upon. To use this measuring device, the procedures mentioned above are followed.

A 100-kg tackler moving at a speed of 2.6 m/s meets head-on (and holds on to) an 92-kg halfback moving at a speed of 5.0 m/s. Pa

DIA [1.3K]

Given that,

Mass of trackler, m₁ = 100 kg

Speed of trackler, u₁ = 2.6 m/s

Mass of halfback, m₂ = 92 kg

Speed of halfback, u₂ = -5 m/s (direction is opposite)

To find,

Mutual speed immediately after the collision.

Solution,

The momentum of the system remains conserved in this case. Let v is the mutual speed after the collision. Using conservation of momentum as :

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)V\\\\V=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}\\\\V=\dfrac{100\times 2.6+92\times (-5)}{(100+92)}\\\\V=-1.04\ m/s$

So, the mutual speed immediately after the collision is 1.04 m/s but in opposite direction.

A thin, rectangular sheet of metal has mass M and sides of length a and b. Find the moment of inertia of this sheet about an axi

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The moment of inertia is $I=\frac{M}{12} a^{2}$

Explanation:

The moment of inertia is equal:

$I=\int\limits^a_b {r^{2} } \, dm$

If r is $-\frac{a}{2}$

and $dm=\frac{M}{a} dr$

$I=\int\limits^a_b {r^{2}\frac{M}{a} } \, dr\\a=\frac{a}{2} \\b=-\frac{a}{2}$

$I=\frac{M}{a} \int\limits^a_b {r^{2} } \, dr\\\\I=\frac{M}{a} (\frac{M}{3} )_{b}^{a}\\ I=\frac{M}{3a} (\frac{a^{3} }{8} +\frac{a^{3} }{8} )\\I=\frac{M}{12} a^{2}$
