What weight of water is displaced by a 100-ton floating ship? What is the buoyant force that acts on this ship?

1 answer:

3 0

An object that weighs 100 tons and is floating is displacing exactly 100 tons of the fluid, and the buoyant force on it is 100 tons. The vertical forces on it are balanced (add up to zero), and that's why it isn't accelerating up or down.

Points a and b lie in a region where the y-component of the electric field is Ey=α+β/y2. The constants in this expression have t

Answer:

V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3

Explanation:

The electric potential is defined by

$V_{b} - V_{a}$ = - ∫ E .ds

In this case the electric field is in the direction and the points (ds) are also in the direction and therefore the angle is zero and the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product.

V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E ds

We substitute

V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ (α + β/ y²) dy

We integrate

V_{b} - V_{a} = - α y + β / y

We evaluate between the lower limit A 2 cm = 0.02 m and the upper limit B 3 cm = 0.03 m

V_{b} - V_{a} = - α (0.03 - 0.02) + β (1 / 0.03 - 1 / 0.02)

V_{b} - V_{a} = - 600 0.01 + 5 (-16.67) = -6 - 83.33

V_{b} - V_{a} = - 89.3 V

As they ask us the reverse case

V_{b} - V_{a} = - V_{b} - V_{a}

V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3
