Answer:
(a) The volume of water is 100 cm³
(b) The volume of the rock is 20 cm³
(c) The density of the rock is 30 g/cm³
Explanation:
The given parameters of the perspex box are;
The area of the base of the box, A = 10 cm²
The initial level of water in the box, h₁ = 10 cm
The mass of the rock placed in the box, m = 600 g
The final level of water in the box, h₂ = 12 cm
(a) The volume of water in the box, 'V', is given as follows;
V = A × h₁
∴ The volume of water in the box, V = 10 cm² × 10 cm = 100 cm³
The volume of water in the box, V = 100 cm³
(b) When the rock is placed in the box the total volume, , is given by the sum of the rock,
, and the water, V, is given as follows;
=
+ V
= A × h₂
∴ = 10 cm² × 12 cm = 120 cm³
The total volume, = 120 cm³
The volume of the rock, =
- V
∴ = 120 cm³ - 100 cm³ = 20 cm³
The volume of the rock, = 20 cm³
(c) The density of the rock, ρ = (Mass of the rock, m)/(The volume of the rock)
∴ The density of the rock, ρ = 600 g/(20 cm³) = 30 g/cm³
Answer:
Frictional force, F = 45.9 N
Explanation:
It is given that,
Weight of the box, W = 150 N
Acceleration,
The coefficient of static friction between the box and the wagon's surface is 0.6 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.4.
It is mentioned that the box does not move relative to the wagon. The force of friction is equal to the applied force. Let a is the acceleration. So,
Frictional force is given by :
F = 45.9 N
So, the friction force on this box is closest to 45.9 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
