Answer:

The fraction of its volume inside liquid  is increased .

Explanation:

According to principle pf floatation , an object floats on the surface of water

when the weight of  liquid displaced by it becomes equal to weight of the object . weight of the liquid depends upon the density of the liquid .

In the second case , when the body is dipped into liquid of lesser density , in order to balance the weight of body , more volume of liquid will be displaced so that weight of displaced liquid becomes equal to object's weight . So the body floats with greater depth inside liquid . The fraction of its volume inside liquid  is increased .

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The larger pebble has 25 times more mass.

Explanation:

To solve the exercise it is necessary to apply the work and energy conservation equations.

For the case described, the work done must be preserved and must be the same, that is,

W = 0

By definition work linked to the conservation of kinetic energy would be given by

\Delta KE = W = 0

\Delta KE = 0

KE_{larger}-KE_{smaller} = 0

KE_{larger}=KE_{smaller}

\frac{1}{2}m_lv_l^2 = \frac{1}{2}m_sv_s^2

m_lv_l^2 = m_sv_s^2

The ratio between the mass and the velocity would be,

\frac{m_l}{m_s}=\frac{v_s^2}{v_l^2}

\frac{m_l}{m_s} = \frac{500^2}{100^2}

\frac{m_l}{m_s} = 25

Therefore the answer is: The larger pebble has 25 times more mass.

<h2>She will find the ball at a horizontal distance of 86.4 m from landed location</h2>

Explanation:

Consider the vertical motion of ball

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 2 m/s

        Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²  

        Displacement, s = 100 m      

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      100 = 2 x t + 0.5 x 9.81 xt²

                      4.905t²  + 2t - 100 = 0

                     t = 4.32 s    or   t = -4.72 s

                    After 4.32 seconds the ball reaches ground.

Now we need to find horizontal distance traveled by ball in 4.32 seconds.

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 20 m/s

        Acceleration, a = 0 m/s²  

        Time, t = 4.32 s      

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      s = 20 x 4.32 + 0.5 x 0 x 4.32²

                      s = 86.4 m

She will find the ball at a horizontal distance of 86.4 m from landed location

the power of a physicians eyes is 57.1 D while examinging a patient. how far from her eyes (in m) is the feature being examined.
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

14 cm

Explanation:

Power of eye = 57.1 D

The relation between the focal length and the power is

f = 1 / P = 1 / 57.1 = 0.0175 m = 1.75 cm

The distance between the image and the lens is, v = 2 cm

Let the distance between the object and the eye is u

Use the lens equation

1/ f = 1 / v - 1 / u

1 / 1.75 = 1 / 2 - 1 / u

1 / u = 1 / 2 - 1 / 1.75

1 / u = (1.75 - 2) / 3.5

u = - 14 cm

Thus, the distance between the feature and eye is 14 cm .
