Answer: E) A) salt water.

Explanation:

E) In equilibrium, pressure exerts equally in all directions, so for a given depth, the pressure is the same for all points located at the same depth, and it can be written as follows:

p = p₀ + ρ.g.h, where p₀ = atmospheric pressure, ρ=fluid density, h=depth from the surface.

A) The buoyant force, as discovered by Archimedes, is an upward force, that opposes to the weight of an object (as it is always downward), and is equal to the weight of the volume of the liquid that the object removes, which means that is proportional to the density of the liquid.

As salt water is denser than fresh water, the buoyant force exerted by the salt water is always greater than the one produced by the fresh water, so objects will float more easily in salt water than in fresh water.

In the limit, it is possible that one object float in salt water and sink in fresh water.

A box is pulled 6 meters across the ground at a constant velocity by a horizontally applied force of 50 newtons. At the same tim
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

(a) Friction force = 50 N

(b) Work done by friction = 300 j

(c) Net work done = 0 j

Explanation:

We have given that the box is pulled by 6 meter so d = 6 m

Force applied on the box F = 60 N

We have have given that velocity is constant so acceleration will be zero

So to applied force will be utilized in balancing the friction force

So friction force F_{friction}=50N

Work done by friction force W_{friction}=F_{friction}\times d=50\times 6=300j

Work done by applied force W=F\times d=50\times 6=300j

So net work done = 300-300 = 0 j

How do solar panels create electricity
xenn [34]

Answer:

They create electricity from the sun's  rays

Explanation:

By the use of "solar cells" or "solar panel", you can trap solar energy in silicon/germanium rods, then you can convert in into electricity too. Solar powered panels convert the sun's rays into electricity by exciting electrons in silicon cells using the photons of light from the sun. This electricity can then be used to supply renewable energy to your home or business.

A train travels 120 km in 2 hours and 30 minutes. What is its average speed?
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

13.33 or 13 1/3m/s (meters per second)

Explanation:

In physics, we use the basic units of meters and seconds. So first convert (km) into meters (m) and also hours and minutes into seconds (s). We end up with 120000m and 9000s. Then divide the 120000m by the 9000s and you end up with 13.33 or 13 1/3 m/s.

A 4.67-g bullet is moving horizontally with a velocity of +357 m/s, where the sign + indicates that it is moving to the right (s
Leni [432]

Answer:

(a)0.531m/s

(b)0.00169

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of bullet, m=4.67 g=4.67\times 10^{-3} kg

1 kg =1000 g

Speed of bullet, v=357m/s

Mass of block 1,m_1=1177g=1.177kg

Mass of block 2,m_2=1626 g=1.626 kg

Velocity of block 1,v_1=0.681m/s

(a)

Let velocity of the second block  after the bullet imbeds itself=v2

Using conservation of momentum

Initial momentum=Final momentum

mv=m_1v_1+(m+m_2)v_2

4.67\times 10^{-3}\times 357+1.177(0)+1.626(0)=1.177\times 0.681+(4.67\times 10^{-3}+1.626)v_2

1.66719=0.801537+1.63067v_2

1.66719-0.801537=1.63067v_2

0.865653=1.63067v_2

v_2=\frac{0.865653}{1.63067}

v_2=0.531m/s

Hence, the  velocity of the second block after the bullet imbeds itself=0.531m/s

(b)Initial kinetic energy before collision

K_i=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

k_i=\frac{1}{2}(4.67\times 10^{-3}\times (357)^2)

k_i=297.59 J

Final kinetic energy after collision

K_f=\frac{1}{2}m_1v^2_1+\frac{1}{2}(m+m_2)v^2_2

K_f=\frac{1}{2}(1.177)(0.681)^2+\frac{1}{2}(4.67\times 10^{-3}+1.626)(0.531)^2

K_f=0.5028 J

Now, he ratio of the total kinetic energy after the collision to that before the collision

=\frac{k_f}{k_i}=\frac{0.5028}{297.59}

=0.00169
