Answer:

Specific gravity can be used to determine if an object will sink or float on water. ... If an object or liquid has a specific gravity greater than one, it will sink. If the specific gravity of an object or a liquid is less than one, it will float.

hope this helps, have a great day/night, and stay safe!

Heat transfers energy from a hot object to a cold object. Both objects are isolated from their surroundings. The change in entro
aniked [119]

To develop this problem we will start from the definition of entropy as a function of total heat, temperature. This definition is mathematically described as

S = \frac{Q}{T}

Here,

Q = Total Heat

T = Temperature

The total change of entropy from a cold object to a hot object is given by the relationship,

\Delta S = \frac{Q}{T_{cold}}-\frac{Q}{T_{hot}}

From this relationship we can realize that the change in entropy by the second law of thermodynamics will be positive. Therefore the temperature in the hot body will be higher than that of the cold body, this implies that this term will be smaller than the first, and in other words it would imply that the magnitude of the entropy 'of the hot body' will always be less than the entropy 'cold body'

Change in entropy \Delta S_{hot} is smaller than \Delta S_{cold}

Therefore the correct answer is C. Will always have a smaller magnitude than the change in entropy of the cold object

A 1500 kg car traveling east at 40 km/hr turns a corner and speeds up to a velocity of 50 km/hr due north. What is the change in
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

96046  Ns.

Explanation:

We shall represent velocity in vector form considering east direction as + ve x axis and north as + y direction.

40 km/h in the east

V₁ = 40 i

V₂ = 50j

momentum p₁ = mV₁

= 1500 X 40 i

= 60000 i

Momentum p₂ = mV₂

= 1500 X 50j

= 75000 j

Change in momentum

p₂ - p₁

75000j - 60000i

Magnitude of change

= \sqrt{(750000)^2 +(60000)^2

= 96046  Ns.

A tow truck is pulling 25,000 kg van with a tow hook that meets the van at an angle of 30° with the ground. How much force must
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

86605.08 N

Explanation:

The equation to calculate the force is:

Force = mass * acceleration

The force and the acceleration does not have the same direction in this case, so we need to decompose the force into its horizontal component, which is the force that will generate the horizontal acceleration:

Force_x = Force * cos(30)

Then, we have that:

Force_x = mass * acceleration

Force * cos(30) = 25000 * 3

Force * 0.866 = 75000

Force = 75000 / 0.866 = 86605.08 N
