One litre of crude oil weighs 9.6N. Calculate its specific weight, density and specific gravity.

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

The answer is " $\bold{9600 \frac{N}{m^3}, 978.59 \frac{kg}{m^3}, and \ 0.978}$ "

Explanation:

Given:

$\to v=1\ liter= 10^{-3} \ m^3\\\\\to w= 9.6 \ N\\$

calculation:

$Specific \ weight =\frac{w}{v}=\frac{9.6}{10^{-3}}=9600 \frac{N}{m^3} \\\\w=mg\\\\m= \frac{w}{g}=\frac{9.6}{9.81}=0.9785\ kg\\\\\rho\ (density)=\frac{m}{v}=\frac{0.9785}{10^{-3}}=978.59 \frac{kg}{m^3}\\\\specific \ gravity = \frac{\prho \ obj}{\rho w}=\frac{978.54}{1000}=0.978$

How does light from a headlamp use a lens and a mirror to produce a narrow beam?

Kryger [21]

The headlamp's concave mirror is open on one end, and the light bulb's filament is placed at or near the focus. (Sorry if this is Wrong)

A 2.61 g lead weight, initially at 11.1 ∘C, is submerged in 7.67 g of water at 52.6 ∘C in an insulated container. What is the fi

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Equilibrium temperature will be $T=52.2684^{\circ}C$

Explanation:

We have given weight of the lead m = 2.61 gram

Let the final temperature is T

Specific heat of the lead c = 0.128

Initial temperature of the lead = 11°C

So heat gain by the lead = 2.61×0.128×(T-11°C)

Mass of the water m = 7.67 gram

Specific heat = 4.184

Temperature of the water = 52.6°C

So heat lost by water = 7.67×4.184×(T-52.6)

We know that heat lost = heat gained

So $2.61\times 0.128\times (T-11)=7.67\times 4.184\times (52.6-T)$

$0.334T-3.67=1688-32.031T$

$T=52.2684^{\circ}C$

A man rides up in an elevator at 12 m. He gains 6500 J of gravitational potential energy. what is the man's mass?

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

We know that potential energy of a body;

= mass(m)× gravitational acceleration(g) × height(h)

Lets find out the mass of the body

P.E. = mgh

=> 6500J = mass × 9.8m/s^2 × 12m

=>6500J = mass × ( 9.8 × 12 ) × ( m/s^2 × m)

=> 6500 Nm = m × 117.6 × m^2 / s^2

=> 6500/117.6 Ns^2/m = mass [°.° Ns^2/m = kg]

=> 55.272 Kg = mass

Therefore the mass of the body = 55.272 kg ~ <em>6</em><em>0</em><em> </em><em>k</em><em>g</em><em> </em>(Ans)

Hope it helps you
