<u>Answer:</u> The specific gravity is numerically equal to the density.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Specific gravity is defined as the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance, generally taken as water whose density is 1 g/mL.

It is also known as relative density.

The relationship between specific gravity and density of a substance is given as:

\text{Specific gravity}=\frac{\text{Density of a substance}}{\text{Density of water}}

Hence, the specific gravity is numerically equal to the density.

A railroad car of mass 2.50*10^4 kg is moving with a speed of 4.00 m/s. It collides and couples with three other coupled railroa
NemiM [27]

Answer:

(a) 2.5 m/s

(b) 37.5 KJ

Explanation:

(a)

From the law of conservation of momentum, Initial momentum=Final momentum

mV_1+3mV_2=(m+3m)V_f=4mV_f

V_1+3V_2=4V_f and making V_f the subject then

V_f=\frac {V_1+3V_2}{4} and since V_1 is initial velocity of car, value given as 4 m/s, V_2 is the initial velocity of the three cars stuck together, value given as 2 m/s and v_f is the final velocity which is unknown. By substitution

V_f=\frac {4+(3\times2)}{4}=2.5 m/s

(b)

Initial kinetic energy is given by

\frac {mV_1^{2}}{2}+\frac {3mV_2^{2}}{2}=\frac {m(V_1^{2}+3V_2^{2}}{2}=\frac {2.5\times 10^{4}(4^{2}+3(2^{2}))}{2}=350\times10^{3} J= 350 KJ

Final kinetic energy is given by

\frac {4mV_f^{2}}{2}=\frac {4\times 2.5\times 10^{4}\times 2.5^{2}}{2}=312.5\times 10^{3} J=312.5 KJ

The energy lost is given by subtracting the final kinetic energy from the initial kinetic energy hence

Energy lost=350-312.5=37.5 KJ

What is the density of a piece of quartz with a mass of 30g and a volume of 6cm^3
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf d= 5 \ g/cm^3}}

Explanation:

Density can be found by dividing the mass by the volume.

d=\frac{m}{v}

The mass of the quartz is 30 grams and the volume is 6 cubic centimeters.

m=30 \ g \\v= 6 \ cm^3

Substitute the values into the formula.

d=\frac{30 \ g}{6 \ cm^3}

Divide.

d= 5 \ g/cm^3

The density of this piece of quartz is 5 grams per cubic centimeter.

A severe storm has an average peak wave height of 16.4 feet for waves hitting the shore. suppose that a storm is in progress wit
Agata [3.3K]

Before we answer this question, let us first understand what alternate hypothesis is.

The alternative hypothesis is the hypothesis which is used in the hypothesis testing and this is opposite to the null hypothesis. This is the test hypothesis which is usually taken to be that the observations are the result of a real effect in an experiment.

In this case since what we want to set up is the statistical test to see if the waves are dying down, then this means we are trying to determine if the wave height are decreasing, so lesser than 16.4 feet. Therefore:

The alternative hypothesis would state                 (ANSWER)

Ha: μ less than 16.4 feet and P-value area is on the left of the mean.

 

While the null hypothesis is the opposite and would state

H0: mu equals 16.4 feet
