A graduated beaker with 375 mL of water is sitting on a scale which measures the weight of the glass and water to be 7.60 N. Whe

n a rock is put into the glass, the volume level of the water changes to 450 mL and the scale reading changes to 9.22 N. What is the specific gravity of the rock

Answer:

Volume of water displaced = 450 - 375 = 75 ml

Vr = volume of rock = 75 ml

Wr = 9.22 - 7.60 = 1.62 N  weight of 75 ml of rock

Density of rock = 1.62 N / 75 ml = .0216 N / ml

Density of water = 1000 g / 1000 ml = 9.8 N / 1000 ml = .0098 N / ml

Density of rock / density of water = .0216 / .0098 = 2.20

Explanation:

Initial speed of the incident water stream, u = 16 m/s

Final speed of the exiting water stream, v = -16 m/s

The mass of water per second that strikes the blade is 48.0 kg/s.

We need to find the magnitude of the average force exerted on the water by the blade. The force acting on an object is given by :

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}

Here, \dfrac{m}{t}=48\ kg/s

F=48\times (-16-16)\ N\\\\F=-1536\ N\\\\|F|=1536\ N

So, the magnitude of the average force exerted on the water by the blade is 1536 N.

On which factors does friction depend ?​
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

It depends on 2 factors

the nature of the materials

the normal force.

Explanation:

It depends on 2 factors

the nature of the materials that are in friction and the treatment that they have followed. This factor is expressed by a numerical value called the coefficient of friction or friction.

the force exerted by one body on the other, that is, the normal force.

Two sheets of polarizing material are placed such that their polarizing axes are 90° to each other and no light passes through t
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Polarization In this case angle of incidence is not equal to angle of polarization, hence reflected light is partially polarized and transmitted light is also partially polarized.  by reflection is explained by Brewster's law,  

According to this when unpolarized light incident on glass plate at an angle is called as angle of polarizing the reflected light is plane polarized, and transmitted light is partially polarized. The plane of vibration of polarized light is having plane of vibrations perpendicular to plane of incidence.
