A golden-colored cube is handed to you. The person wants you to buy it for $100, saying that is a gold nugget. You pull out your

old geology text and look up gold in the mineral table, and read that its density is 19.3 g/cm3. You measure the cube and find that it is 2 cm on each side, and weighs 40 g. What is its density? Is it gold? Should you buy it?

Answer:

Explanation:

Volume of cube=side³

=2*2*2

=8 cm³

Mass of cube=40g

Its density=mass/volume

=5g/cm³

which differs the value given in the text hence it is not gold and u should not bye it...

Instead u should call the police for arresting the person lol...

An object in a fluid experiences a buoyant force from the fluid. If the object is completely immersed, on which does the magnitu
loris [4]

Answer:

Weight of the fluid that the object displaces.

Explanation:

When the fluid is completely immersed in a fluid, it experiences pressure from all the direction. While the object is immersed in the fluid a force acts on it in the opposite direction, i.e., upwards. This force is termed as buoyant force.

Also, as per the Archimedes' Principle, the force experience by the object is the same as the weight of the fluid that gets displaced by the object.

Thus on complete immersion of the object in the fluid, it experiences the force same as the weight of the fluid that gets displaced

A net force of 50 newtons is applied to a 20 kilogram cart that is already moving at 1 m/s the final speed of the cart was 3 m/s
valina [46]

Answer:

0.8 seconds

Explanation:

F=ma

Let x be the seconds the force is applied.

m = 20kg

F = 50 Newtons (kg*m/sec^2)

acceleration, a, is provided for x seconds to increase the speed from 1 m/s to  3 m/s, an increase of 2m/s

Let's calculate the acceleration of the cart:

F=ma

(50 kg*m/s^2) = (20kg)*a

a = 2.5 m/s^2

---

The acceleration is 2.5 m/s^2.  The cart increases speed by 2.5 m/s every second.  

We want the number of seconds it takes to add 2.0 m/sec to the speed:

(2.5 m/s^2)*x = 2.0 m/s

x = (2.0/2.5) sec

x = 0.8 seconds
