Archimedes supposedly was asked to determine whether a crown made for the king consisted of puregold. According to legend, he so
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

the crown was not made of pure gold

Explanation:

Mass of gold = weight in air/ g = 7.84N/10ms-2= 0.784 Kg or 0.8Kg

From Archimedes principle:

Upthrust= weight in air- weight in a fluid

Upthrust= volume × density × g

Note density of water = 1000kgm-3

7.84-6.84= V × 1000kgm-3×10ms-2

V= 1/10000= 1×10-4 m^3

Density = mass/ volume= 0.8/1×10-4

= 8×10^3 Kgm-3

But we know the density of gold to be 19.3 ×10^3 kgm-3

Hence the crown was not made of pure gold

Why are some starburst galaxies much brighter in infrared than they are in visible light?
Anna35 [415]

Some starburst galaxies are much brighter in infrared radiation than they are in visible light because the dust surrounding the galaxies warms up and emits infrared light after absorbing visible light. Because of this, starburst galaxies produce up to 98% of their total energy in the infrared, making them some of the brightest infrared objects in the cosmos.

A sort of radiant energy that we experience as heat but that is invisible to human eyes is infrared radiation (IR), often known as infrared light. The sun and fire are two of the most prominent sources of IR radiation, however all objects in the cosmos release some of it.

If a marathon runner averages 9.51 mi/hr, how long does it take him to run a 26.220-mile marathon. Express your answers in hours
ASHA 777 [7]

Explanation:

Speed of the marathon runner, v = 9.51 mi/hr

Distance covered by the runner, d = 26.220 mile

Let t is the time taken by the marathon runner. We know that the speed of the runner is given by total distance divided by total time taken. Mathematically, it is given by :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

t=\dfrac{26.220\ mi}{9.51\ mi/hr}

t = 2.75 hours

Since, 1 hour = 60 minutes

t = 165 minutes

Since, 1 minute = 60 seconds

t = 9900 seconds

Hence, this is the required solution.
