Answer:
Drilling into the seafloor off Mexico, scientists have extracted a unique geologic record of the single worst day in the history of life on Earth, when a city-sized asteroid smashed into the planet 65 million years ago, wiping out the dinosaurs and three-quarters of all other life.
Their analysis of these new rock samples from the Chicxulub crater, made public Monday, reveals a parfait of debris deposited in layers almost minute-by-minute at the heart of the impact during the first day of a global catastrophe. It records traces of the explosive melting, massive earthquakes, tsunamis, landslides and wildfires as the immense asteroid blasted a hole 100 miles wide and 12 miles deep, the scientists said.
The statements that are held true with regards to the static equilibrium of bodies are:
<span>The net torque acting on the object must equal zero
</span><span>The net torque on the object does not have to be zero if the net force on the object is zero
Furthermore, when a body is in a state of static equilibrium, the summation of all forces, either vertically or horizontally, must be equal to zero. </span>
Answer:
Explanation:
When the rock is immersed in unknown liquid the forces that act on it are shown as under
1) Tension T by the string
2) Weight W of the rock
3) Force of buoyancy due to displaced liquid B
For equilibrium we have 
=
When the rock is suspended in air for equilibrium we have
When the rock is suspended in water for equilibrium we have
+ 
=
Using the given values of tension and solving α,β,γ simultaneously for 
we get
Solving for density of liquid we get
