A wrench is accidentally dropped from the top of a mast on a sailboat. Will the wrench hit at the same place on the deck whether

the sailboat is at rest of moving with a constant velocity

Answer:

Yes, because the wrench is moving at the same speed as the sailboat.

The main difference is that a person on the ground would see the wrench moving diagonally, while a person on the boat would see the wrench falling straight down,

This difference in paths lead to the relativistic change in lengths.

Which wave diffracts the most when encountering an obstacle?
viva [34]

Answer;

-A wave with the longest wavelength.

Explanation;

-Diffraction is the apparent of wave through,around small obstacles and the spreading out of wave past small openings. When thinking of diffraction of a wave think of shining a flashlight around a corner. The light bends around the corner but there is a place where it is dark and the light does not hit. Diffraction of a wave is basically the wave bending around an object then dispersing out.

-The amount of diffraction (the sharpness of the bending) increases with increasing wavelength and decreases with decreasing wavelength. When the wavelength of the waves is smaller than the obstacle, no noticeable diffraction occurs.

A sample of metallic frewium weighs 185N on a spring scale in air. When immersed in pure water, the frewium pulls on the scale w
balu736 [363]

Wow !  This one could have some twists and turns in it.
Fasten your seat belt.  It's going to be a boompy ride.

-- The buoyant force is precisely the missing <em>30N</em> .

--  In order to calculate the density of the frewium sample, we need to know
its mass and its volume.  Then, density = mass/volume .

-- From the weight of the sample in air, we can closely calculate its mass.

   Weight = (mass) x (gravity)
   185N = (mass) x (9.81 m/s²)
   Mass = (185N) / (9.81 m/s²) = <u>18.858 kilograms of frewium</u> 

-- For its volume, we need to calculate the volume of the displaced water.

The buoyant force is equal to the weight of displaced water, and the
density of water is about 1 gram per cm³.  So the volume of the
displaced water (in cm³) is the same as the number of grams in it.

The weight of the displaced water is 30N, and weight = (mass) (gravity).

           30N = (mass of the displaced water) x (9.81 m/s²)

           Mass = (30N) / (9.81 m/s²) = 3.058 kilograms

           Volume of displaced water = <u>3,058 cm³</u>

Finally, density of the frewium sample = (mass)/(volume)

      Density = (18,858 grams) / (3,058 cm³) = <em>6.167 gm/cm³</em> (rounded)

================================================

I'm thinking that this must  be the hard way to do it,
because I noticed that

       (weight in air) / (buoyant force) =  185N / 30N = <u>6.1666...</u>

So apparently . . .

        (density of a sample) / (density of water) =

                                  (weight of the sample in air) / (buoyant force in water) .

I never knew that, but it's a good factoid to keep in my tool-box.
