Answer:

2.464 cm above the water surface

Explanation:

Recall that for the cube to float, means that the volume of water displaced weights the same as the weight of the block.

We calculate the weight of the block multiplying its density (0.78 gr/cm^3) times its volume (11.2^3  cm^3):

weight of the block = 0.78 * 11.2^3  gr

Now the displaced water will have a volume equal to the base of the cube (11.2 cm^2) times the part of the cube (x) that is under water. Recall as well that the density of water is 1 gr/cm^3.

So the weight of the volume of water displaced is:

weight of water = 1 * 11.2^2 * x

we make both weight expressions equal each other for the floating requirement:

0.78 * 11.2^3 = 11.2^2 * x

then x = 0.78 * 11.2 cm = 8.736 cm

This "x" is the portion of the cube under water. Then to estimate what is left of the cube above water, we subtract it from the cube's height (11.2 cm) as follows:

11.2 cm - 8.736 cm = 2.464 cm

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

F=2.25\times 10^{-5}\ N

Explanation:

According to question,

Charge 1 and charge 2 are 10^{-7}\ C

The distance between charges is 2 m

We need to find the force with which two positive charges repel. It is called electrostatic force of repulsion. It can be given by :

F=\dfrac{kq^2}{r^2}\\\\F=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times (10^{-7})^2}{2^2}\\\\F=2.25\times 10^{-5}\ N

So, the electric force of repulsion is 2.25\times 10^{-5}\ N.
