A 1460-kg submarine rises straight up towards the surface. Seawater exerts both an upward buoyant force of 16670 N on the submar
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

a = 0.63 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

mass of submarine = 1460-kg

upward buoyant force = 16670 N

downward resistive force = 1150 N

submarine acceleration = ?

assuming g = 10 m/s²

now,

B - (R + mg) = ma

16670 - 1150 - 1460 × 10 = 1460 × a

1460× a = 920

a = 0.63 m/s²

hence, the acceleration of submarine is equal to a = 0.63 m/s²

Assuming both graduated cylinders are holding water at room temperature, which cylinder has more thermal energy?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

The correct option is;

The graduate cylinder with more water has more thermal energy because it is holding more water molecules

Explanation:

Given that the thermal energy of the system is the energy possessed by the system by virtue of the increased motion of the particles by virtue of a transfer  of heat, when the content of the system is heated

The thermal energy, Q is given by the following equation;

Q = Mass, m × The specific heat capacity, C × The change in temperature, ΔT

Given that the graduated cylinder with more water has more mass and therefore, more water molecules, than the cylinder with less water, the cylinder with more water has more thermal energy.

How could the action force of a canoe moving through water be increased?.
BaLLatris [955]
There are several actions that can be used to increase the action force of a canoe that is moving through water. One can increase the rate of striking or strike harder than before with a bigger paddle. Using a lighter canoe can also be helpful for increasing the speed. I hope the answer comes to your help.

Calculate the electric field strength at a point at which a test charge of 0.30 coulombs experiences a force of 5.0 newtons.
SVEN [57.7K]

The strength of electric field E is 17 N / C.

<u />

<u>Explanation:</u>

Electric field strength is defined as the force per unit charge acting at a point in the given field. The equation for the strength of the electric field is given by

                     E = F / q

where E represents the electric field strength,

           F represents the force in newton,

           q represents the charge in coulomb.

Given the charge q = 0.30 coulombs

                   force F = 5.0 N

Electric field strength E = force / charge

                                        = 5.0 / 0.30

                                    E  = 16.66 = 17 N / C.
