Answer:

3.15m³

Explanation:

To solve this problem, let us first find the mass of the petrol from the given dimension.

Mass = density x volume

Volume of petrol = 4.2m³

Density of petrol = 0.3kgm⁻³

Mass of petrol = 4.2 x 0.3 = 1.26kg

So;

We can now find the volume of the alcohol

Volume of alcohol = $\frac{mass}{density}$

Mass of alcohol = 1.26kg

Density of alcohol = 0.4kgm⁻³

Volume of alcohol = $\frac{1.26}{0.4}$ = 3.15m³

Gold, which has a density of 19.32 g/cm3, is the most ductile metal and can be pressed into a thin leaf or drawn out into a long

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

a) 578.0 cm²

b) 25.18 km

Explanation:

We're given the density and mass, so first calculate the volume.

D = M / V

V = M / D

V = (6.740 g) / (19.32 g/cm³)

V = 0.3489 cm³

a) The volume of any uniform flat shape (prism) is the area of the base times the thickness.

V = Ah

A = V / h

A = (0.3489 cm³) / (6.036×10⁻⁴ cm)

A = 578.0 cm²

b) The volume of a cylinder is pi times the square of the radius times the length.

V = πr²h

h = V / (πr²)

h = (0.3489 cm³) / (π (2.100×10⁻⁴ cm)²)

h = 2.518×10⁶ cm

h = 25.18 km

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The value of radiation pressure is $2.933 \times 10^{-8}$ Pa

Explanation:

Given:

Intensity $I = 8.8$ $\frac{W}{m^{2} }$

Area of piece $A = 2.1 \times 10^{-4}$ $m^{2}$

From the formula of radiation pressure in terms of intensity,

$P = \frac{I}{c}$

Where $P =$ radiation pressure, $c =$ speed of light

We know value of speed of light,

$c = 3 \times 10^{8}$ $\frac{m}{s}$

Put all values in above equation,

$P = \frac{8.8}{3 \times 10^{8} }$

$P = 2.933 \times 10^{-8}$ Pa

Therefore, the value of radiation pressure is $2.933 \times 10^{-8}$ Pa
