Explain why an object floats on water. Use terms like buoyancy force and gravitational force.

Physics
1 answer:
telo118 [61]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

If an object pushes out an amount of water equal to its own weight, the upward force acting on it will be equal to gravity - and the object will float.

Explanation:

The buoyant force has an impact on the object in the water and equals the weight of the water displaced by the object. Every object placed in water has some buoyancy force that pushes it against the gravitational force, and this means that any object loses weight in the water.

Answer:

Explanation:

The inclined plane

An inclined plane consists of a sloping surface; it is used for raising heavy bodies. The plane offers a mechanical advantage in that the force required to move an object up the incline is less than the weight being raised (discounting friction). The steeper the slope, or incline, the more nearly the required force approaches the actual weight. Expressed mathematically, the force F required to move a block D up an inclined plane without friction is equal to its weight W times the sine of the angle the inclined plane makes with the horizontal (θ). The equation is F = W sin θ.

The lever

A lever is a bar or board that rests on a support called a fulcrum. A downward force exerted on one end of the lever can be transferred and increased in an upward direction at the other end, allowing a small force to lift a heavy weight.

The wedge

A wedge is an object that tapers to a thin edge. Pushing the wedge in one direction creates a force in a sideways direction. It is usually made of metal or wood and is used for splitting, lifting, or tightening, as in securing a hammer head onto its handle.

The wheel and axle

A wheel and axle is made up of a circular frame (the wheel) that revolves on a shaft or rod (the axle). In its earliest form it was probably used for raising weights or water buckets from wells.

Its principle of operation is best explained by way of a device with a large gear and a small gear attached to the same shaft. The tendency of a force, F, applied at the radius R on the large gear to turn the shaft is sufficient to overcome the larger force W at the radius r on the small gear. The force amplification, or mechanical advantage, is equal to the ratio of the two forces (W:F) and also equal to the ratio of the radii of the two gears (R:r)

How often must you check the temperature of food that is being held with temperature control?.
loris [4]

You need to check the temperature of food being stored in a temperature-controlled environment every four hours. The process of changing a space's temperature is called temperature control.

Cooking food alone may not be enough to avoid food poisoning, though, if the bacteria in food are allowed to grow to large numbers. When the temperature is between 5°C and 63°C, bacteria can grow. The risk zone is the range between 5°C and 63°C.

Temperature control is a process where the passage of heat energy into or out of a space or substance is adjusted to achieve the desired temperature. This process involves measuring or otherwise detecting changes in the temperature of the space (and all of the objects contained therein) or of the substance.
