An object is floating in equilibrium on the surface of a liquid. The object is then removed and placed in another container, fil

Anestetic [448]3 years ago

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 .

A policeman is chasing a criminal across a rooftop at 10 m/s. He decides to jump to the next building which is 2 meters across f
valina [46]

Answer:

They will meet at a distance of 7.57 m

Given:

Initial velocity of policeman in the x- direction, u_{x} = 10 m/s

The distance between the buildings, d_{x} = 2.0 m

The building is lower by a height, h = 2.5 m

Solution:

Now,

When the policeman jumps from a height of 2.5 m, then his initial velocity, u was 0.

Thus

From the second eqn of motion, we can write:

h = ut + \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

h = \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

2.5 = \frac{1}{2}\times 10\times t^{2}

t = 0.707 s

Now,

When the policeman was chasing across:

d_{x} = u_{x}t + \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

d_{x} = 10\times 0.707 + \frac{1}{2}\times 10\times 0.5 = 9.57 m

The distance they will meet at:

9.57 - 2.0 = 7.57 m

A 2.3 kg cart is rolling across a frictionless, horizontal track towards a 1.5 kg cart that is initially held at rest. The carts
Inga [223]

Answer:

total momentum = 8.42 kgm/s

velocity of the first cart is 3.660 m/s

Explanation:

Given data

mass m1 = 2.3 kg

mass m2 = 1.5 kg

final velocity V2 = 4.9 m/s

final velocity V3 = - 1.9 m/s

to find out

total momentum  and velocity of the first cart

solution

we know mass and final velocty

and initial velocity of second cart V1 = 0

so now we can calculate total momentum that is m1 v2 + m2 v2

total momentum =  2.3 ×4.9 + 1.5 ×(-1.9)

total momentum = 8.42 kgm/s

and

conservation of momentum  is

m1 V + m2 v1  = m1 v2  + m2 v3

put all value and find V

2.3 V + 1.5 ( 0) = 2.3 ( 4.9 ) + 1.5 ( -1.9)

V = 8.42 / 2.3

V = 3.660 m/s

so velocity of the first cart is 3.660 m/s

Two spectators at a soccer game in Montjuic Stadium see, and a moment later hear, the ball being kicked on the playing field. Th
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

a) The distance of spectator A to the player is 79.2 m

b) The distance of spectator B to the player is 43.9 m

c) The distance between the two spectators is 90.6 m

Explanation:

a) Knowing the time it takes the sound to reach both spectators, we can calculate their position relative to the player, using this equation:

x = v * t

where:

x = position of the spectators

v = speed of sound

t = time

Then, the position for spectator A relative to the player is:

x = 343 m/s * 0.231 s = 79.2 m

b)For spectator B:

x = 343 m/s * 0.128 s

x = 43.9 m

The distance of spectator A and B to the player is 79.2 m and 43.9 m respectively.

c) To calculate the distance between the spectators, please see the attached figure. Notice that the distance between the spectators is the hypotenuse of the triangle formed by the sightline of both. We already know the longitude of the two sides. Then, using Pythagoras theorem:

(Distance AB)² = A² + B²

(Distance AB)² = (79.2 m)² + (43.9 m)²

Distance AB = 90. 6 m
