Answer:

4N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of stone when immersed in water  = 18N

Weight of water displaced  = 4N

Unknown:

Weight of the stone in air  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we employ the Archimedes' principles.

It states that the upward buoyant force on a body is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced.

The weight of the water displaced is equal to the weight of the body.

So, the weight of the stone in air  = 4N

Solve for M₂
soldi70 [24.7K]

Explanation:

M₂ = Fr²/GM₁

M₂ = [(132N)(.243m)²]/[(6.67*10^-11N*m²/kg)(1.175*10^4kg)]

M₂ = (7.79N*m²)/(7.84*10^-7N*m²)

M₂ = 9.94*10^6 kg

What is impossible for a machine to do?
Art [367]

Answer:

A) do a greater amount of work than the amount of work done on the machine

Explanation:

By the principle of conservation of energy, energy can never be created or destroyed.

To do more work by a machine than the amount of work done on the machine is impossible because to do so machine will have to create energy within itself which violates the principle of conservation of energy.

Extra bit,

These kind of machine are defined as perpetual-motion machines and there are many attempts in history to create one such device but all were failed.

List 5 possible effects of not adhering to standards of measurement
Bond [772]

Explanation:

Without the metric system, we'd have a different International System of Units, the metric system is important because 1mm is 0.1cm, 1 cm is 0.01m, with the imperial system the conversion is tedious. The most important feature of the metric system is its base in scientific fact and repeatable standards of measurement

What is the three laws of electrostatics?
dangina [55]

The force exerted between 2 point charges is directly proportional to the product of their strengths, is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them and is inversely proportional to the absolute permittivity of the surrounding mediums.

I hope that helps somewhat, I'm only kind of sure that could be correct
