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.

 15cm3 block of gold weighs  2.8N it is carefully submerged in a tank of mercury. one cm3 of mercury weight 0.!3n a will the mer
NNADVOKAT [17]
You have said that 15cm³ of gold weighs 2.8N.  So I may infer that each cm³
of gold weighs about 0.19N.  When I compare that figure with the 0.13N per cm³
of mercury, it becomes immediately apparent that the gold is more dense than
mercury. Therefore, the sample of gold, no matter what its size or weight, will
displace its total volume of mercury, and will go on to sink entirely beneath the
waves in the mercury.

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Participant Observation

Explanation:

According to my research on Anthropological Research methods, I can say that based on the information provided within the question this type of research method is called Participant Observation. This type of methodology is usually used among Anthropologists, and is defined as a method where researchers choose to live in the lives of the group or species that they are studying.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

Provide examples of Thermodynamics.
vampirchik [111]
Thermodynamics is the branch of physical science which deals with the relationship between heat and other forms of energy like chemical energy, mechanical or electrical. Here are examples of thermodynamics that are commonly seen in everyday living: When you accidentally wrecked or bumped your car, you came out alive and just slightly hurt, because it was the car that that absorbed the energy of the impact. Another example is that, during cooking. When you are cooking, the heat is being transferred to the pan and then to the food that you are cooking.
