Answer;

0.25 g/cm^3

Explanation;

25 % of 1 g/cm^3

=  0.25 g/cm^3

Water's density is 1 g/ml. Objects with a density greater than 1g/ml will sink when placed in water.

Objects with a density less than one will float when placed in water. If a block has a density of 0.1g/cm3 it will float because it's density is less than 1.

The percent of the block that will be below the water depends on the density of the floating object. To find the percentage of the object below the water we just convert the density of the object as a percentage.

A small mailbag is released from a helicopter that is descending steadily at 3 m/s.
mario62 [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

a) Speed of mailbag after 3 seconds = 32.4 m/s

b) Package is 44.1 meter below helicopter

c) If the helicopter was rising steadily at 3.00 m/s

       Speed of mailbag after 3 seconds = 26.4 m/s

       Package is 44.1 meter below helicopter

<u>Explanation:</u>

a)  We have equation of motion, v = u + at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time taken.

   Initial velocity = 3 m/s, acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2 and time = 3 seconds.

   v = 3+9.8*3 = 32.4 m/s

  Speed of mailbag after 3 seconds = 32.4 m/s

b) We have equation of motion , s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2, s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

 Velocity of helicopter = 3 m/s, time taken = 3 seconds, acceleration = 0 m/s^2.

    s= 3*3+\frac{1}{2} *0*3^2\\ \\ s=9m

    Distance traveled by helicopter = 9 meter.

 Velocity of package = 3 m/s, time taken = 3 seconds, acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2.

  s= 3*3+\frac{1}{2} *9.8*3^2\\ \\ s= 53.1m

  Distance traveled by package  = 53.1 meter.

So package is (53.1-9)meter below helicopter = 44.1 m

c) Initial velocity = -3 m/s, acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2 and time = 3 seconds.

  v = -3+9.8*3 = 26.4 m/s

  Speed of mailbag after 3 seconds = 26.4 m/s

 Velocity of helicopter = -3 m/s, time taken = 3 seconds, acceleration = 0 m/s^2.

    s= -3*3+\frac{1}{2} *0*3^2\\ \\ s=-9m

    Distance traveled by helicopter = 9 meter.

 Velocity of package = -3 m/s, time taken = 3 seconds, acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2.

  s= -3*3+\frac{1}{2} *9.8*3^2\\ \\ s= 35.1m

  Distance traveled by package  = 35.1 meter.

So package is (35.1+9)meter below helicopter = 44.1 m

A 650 kg steel beam is being pulled up by a crane with a force of 7020 N. What is the upwards acceleration of the beam?
zimovet [89]

Answer: 1 m/s^2

Explanation:

n= w+ma

n= Mg+Ma

7020 = (650)(9.8)+650a

7020 = 6370+ 650a

650=650a

A= 1 m/s^2

The train took 2 h 30 min to travel 3/5 of a journey at an
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

100 km/h

Explanation:

96km•2.5=240km

240÷3/5=240•5/3=400km

400-240=160km

4.1-2.5=1.6h

160÷1.6=100km/h
