Answer:

the mass of the body is 0.02 kg.

Explanation:

Given;

relative density of the oil, \gamma _0 = 0.875

mass of the object in oil, M_o = 0.013 kg

mass of the object in water, M_w = 0.012 kg

let the mass of the object in air = M_a

weight of the oil, W_0 = M_a - 0.013

weight of the water, W_w = M_a - 0.012

The relative density of the oil is given as;

\gamma_0 = \frac{density \ of \ oil }{density \ of \ water} = \frac{W_0}{W_w} = \frac{M_a -0.013}{M_a -0.012} \\\\0.875 = \frac{M_a -0.013}{M_a -0.012}\\\\0.875(M_a - 0.012) = M_a - 0.013\\\\0.875M_a - 0.0105 = M_a -0.013\\\\0.875M_a - M_a = 0.0105 - 0.013\\\\-0.125 M_a = -0.0025\\\\M_a = \frac{0.0025}{0.125} \\\\M_a = 0.02 \ kg

Therefore, the mass of the body is 0.02 kg.

What happens to the average kinetic energy of water molecules as water freezes? It decreases as the water absorbs energy from it
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:the average kinetic energy is directly proportional to the temperature . When water freezes, the temperature decreases and therefore, the average kinetic energy will also decreases as well.

if you put a pencil in a cup of water, it looks as if it is broken and larger in the water. This is because light waves
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

When light enters from air to water i.e. it is moving from rarer to denser medium, it changes its original path as there is a change of speed of light and deflects itself towards the normal. This is known as the refraction of light and this is why a pencil in a cup of water looks as if it is broken and larger.

a rocket engine can accelerate a rocket launched from rest vertically up with an acceleration of 22.9 m/s2. however, after 50.0
xxTIMURxx [149]

The acceleration of a rocket engine is given here, and after 50 seconds of flight, the engine fails, and we must determine the altitude of the rocket at the time the engine fails.  Because the rocket starts from rest, the time taken is 50 seconds, the initial velocity is zero, and the acceleration is 22.9 meters per second square. So we use the kinamatics equation s equal to v. I t plus half 8 square. There is no acceleration at the start. 22.9 and t is 50 seconds, so displacement 2.86 times 10 to the power 4 is met. This is the rocket's displacement in 50 seconds, so this is the rocket's altitude when the engine fails.

<h3>What exactly is accelerate?</h3>
  • In mechanics, acceleration is defined as the rate of change of an object's velocity with respect to time. Vector quantities are accelerations. The orientation of an object's acceleration is determined by the orientation of its net force.
  • In his second law of motion, Sir Isaac Newton (1642-1727) defined acceleration as the ratio of a force acting on an object to its mass: a = f/m.
  • Accelerate is a verb that means to speed up. When you press the gas pedal, the car accelerates. If you know someone who works at the consulate, you can speed up the process.
  • Acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes over time, both in terms of speed and direction. A point or object moving in a straight line is accelerated if it accelerates or decelerates.
  • Even if the speed is constant, motion on a circle is accelerated because the direction is constantly changing. Both effects contribute to acceleration in all other types of motion.

Hence, There is no acceleration at the start. 22. This is the rocket's displacement in 50 seconds, so this is the rocket's altitude when the engine fails.
