A student has a rectangular block. It is 2 cm wide, 2 cm tall, and 25 cm long. It has a mass of 600 g. First, calculate the volu

Answer:

6g/cm³

Explanation:

Density is the mass per unit volume of any substance. To solve this problem:

Density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$

Since mass = 600g

Let us find the volume;

Volume = length x width x height

Volume = 25cm x 2cm x 2cm = 100cm³

Therefore;

Density = $\frac{600}{100}$ = 6g/cm³

If a planet has the same mass as the earth, but has twice the radius, how does the surface gravity, g, compare to g on the surfa

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The surface gravity g of the planet is 1/4 of the surface gravity on earth.

Explanation:

Surface gravity is given by the following formula:

$g=G\frac{m}{r^{2}}$

So the gravity of both the earth and the planet is written in terms of their own radius, so we get:

$g_{E}=G\frac{m}{r_{E}^{2}}$

$g_{P}=G\frac{m}{r_{P}^{2}}$

The problem tells us the radius of the planet is twice that of the radius on earth, so:

$r_{P}=2r_{E}$

If we substituted that into the gravity of the planet equation we would end up with the following formula:

$g_{P}=G\frac{m}{(2r_{E})^{2}}$

Which yields:

$g_{P}=G\frac{m}{4r_{E}^{2}}$

So we can now compare the two gravities:

$\frac{g_{P}}{g_{E}}=\frac{G\frac{m}{4r_{E}^{2}}}{G\frac{m}{r_{E}^{2}}}$

When simplifying the ratio we end up with:

$\frac{g_{P}}{g_{E}}=\frac{1}{4}$

So the gravity acceleration on the surface of the planet is 1/4 of that on the surface of Earth.

A string under a tension of 68 N is used to whirl a rock in a horizontal circle of radius 3.7 m at a speed of 16.53 m/s. The str

alekssr [168]

Answer:

$F = 5253.7 N$

Explanation:

As we know that tension force in the string will be equal to the centripetal force on the string

so we will have

$T = \frac{mv^2}{L}$

now we have

$68 = \frac{m(16.53^2)}{3.7}$

now we have

$68 = 73.8 m$

$m = 0.92 kg$

now when string length is 0.896 m and its speed is 71.5 m/s then we will have

$F = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

$F = \frac{0.92(71.5^2)}{0.896}$

$F = 5253.7 N$

Assuming 84.0% efficiency for the conversion of electrical power by the motor, what current must the 13.0-V batteries of a 716 k

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

$\mathbf{ current(I) =1766.67 \ A}$

Explanation:

Given that:

The air resistance and friction = 700 N

The gravity caused force = 716 × 9.8 = 7016.8

Total force = (7016.8 + 700) N

Total force = 7716.8 N

∴

$13 \times current(I) \times 0.84 = \dfrac{7716.8 \times 300}{2 \times 60}$

$current(I) \times 10.92= 19292$

$current(I) = \dfrac{19292}{10.92}$

$\mathbf{ current(I) =1766.67 \ A}$
