The rock strike the water with the speed of 15.78 m/sec.

The speed by which rock hit the water is calculated by the formula

v=\sqrt{2gh}

v=\sqrt{2*9.8*12.7}

v=15.78 m/sec

Hence, the rock strike the water with the speed of 15.78 m/sec.

choli [55]

Answer:

They can be seen from a distance of 4.372 kilometers.

Explanation:

Using the Reyligh creterion for diffraction through a circular aperture we have

\frac{x}{D}=\frac{1.22\lambda }{d}

where symbol's have their usual meaning

thus applying values we get

D=\frac{dx}{1.22\lambda }

\therefore D=\frac{0.633\times 4.61\times 10^{-3}}{1.22\times 547\times 10^{-9}}\\\\D=4372.77m\\=4.372km

A cube made Of an unknown material has a height of 9 symeters the mass of this cube is 3645 g. calculate the density of this cub
kherson [118]

Answer: 5 \frac{g}{cm^{3}}

Explanation:

The density \rho of a material is given by:

\rho=\frac{m}{V} (1)

Where:

m=3645 g is the mass of the cube

V is the volume of the cube

Now, the volume of a cube is equal to the length L of its edge to the power of 3:

V=L^{3} (2)

If we know L=9 cm, the volume of this cube is:

V=(9 cm)^{3}=729 cm^{3} (3)

Substituting (3) in (1):

\rho=\frac{3645 g}{729 cm^{3}} (4)

\rho=5 \frac{g}{cm^{3}} This is the density of the cube
