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

This is a Physics practice question. How do i solve it?
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

P = 140000 [Pa]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must remember that pressure is defined as the relationship between Force on the area of a body.

In this particular problem, we are given the force acting on the upper surface of the block, including the force exerted by the atmospheric pressure.

P = F/A

where:

P = pressure [Pa] (units of Pascals)

F = force = 3.5*10⁴ [N]

A = area = 0.25 [m²]

P = 3.5*10⁴/0.25

P = 140000 [Pa]

If it takes 42 minutes to load 3 1/2 trucks, how many minutes will it take to load 6 1/2 trucks?
Kruka [31]
If it takes 42 minutes to load 3 1/2 trucks, then it takes 42 / 3.5 = 12 minutes to load a single truck. Multiplying the number of minutes per truck by 6.5 yields the time it will take to load. In this case 12 x 6.5 = 78 minutes would be required to load 6 1/2 trucks. The formula for the time taken is t = 12n, where t is the time in minutes and n is the number of trucks.

What is the difference between virtual images produced by concave, plane and convex mirrors? What does the negative sign in the
vampirchik [111]
Hey.. the virtual image formed by a plane mirror would be the same size. If formed by a convex mirror it would be diminished and if formed by a concave mirror it would be magnified.
the negative sign in the value of magnification indicates the type of mirror, that the mirror being used is convex, and if it is positive then the mirror being used is concave mirror. The negative sign denotes that the image projected is in the inverted direction.

A 0.25 kg harmonic oscillator has a total mechanical energy of 4.1 j. if the oscillation amplitude is 20.0 cm, what is the oscil
laiz [17]
When the oscillator is at maximum extension, we know all of its energy is in Potential Energy, so if the total oscillation energy is 4.1 J, we know that at maximum displacement of 0.2 m, that 

<span>energy = 1/2 kA^2 where A= 0.2 m </span>

<span>k= 2E  / A^2 = 2*4.1 J /0.2^2=200 N/m </span>

<span>the frequency of oscillation is (1/2pi) sqrt[k/m] </span>

<span>knowing k and m, we can substitute values and find frequency</span>
