Answer:

8000 kg/m^3

Explanation:

Weight in air = 7.84 n

Weight in water = 6.86 N

density of water = 1000 kg/m^3

Let d be the density of object

According to the Archimedes principle, when a body is immersed in a liquid partly or wholly, it experiences an upward force which is called buoyant force. The buoyant force is equal to the loss in weight of the body.

Loss in weight of the object = Weight of object in air - weight of object in water

Loss in weight = 7.84 - 6.86 = 0.98 N

Volume of body x density of water x g = 0.98

Let V be the volume of body

V x 1000 x 9.8 = 0.98

V = 10^-4 m^3

Weight in air = Volume of body x density of body x g

7.84 = 10^-4 x d x 9.8

d = 8000 kg/m^3

Thus, the density of body is 8000 kg/m^3.

Answer:at 21.6 min they were separated by 12 km

Explanation:

We can consider the next diagram

B2------15km/h------->Dock

|

|

B1 at 20km/h

|

|

V

So by the time B1 leaves, being B2 traveling at constant 15km/h and getting to the dock one hour later means it was at 15km from the dock, the other boat, B1 is at a distance at a given time, considering constant speed of 20km/h*t going south, where t is in hours, meanwhile from the dock the B2 is at a distance of (15km-15km/h*t), t=0, when it is 8pm.

Then we have a right triangle and the distance from boat B1 to boat B2, can be measured as the square root of (15-15*t)^2 +(20*t)^2. We are looking for a minimum, then we have to find the derivative with respect to t. This is 5*(25*t-9)/(sqrt(25*t^2-18*t+9)), this derivative is zero at t=9/25=0,36 h = 21.6 min, now to be sure it is a minimum we apply the second derivative criteria that states that if the second derivative at the given critical point is positive it means here we have a minimum, and by calculating the second derivative we find it is 720/(25 t^2 - 18 t + 9)^(3/2) that is positive at t=9/25, then we have our answer. And besides replacing the value of t we get the distance is 12 km.

State the Newton 2nd law of motion and also prove that F= ma<br>​
saw5 [17]

Explanation:

F = ma is the formula of Newton's Second Law of Motion. Newton's Second Law of Motion is defined as Force is equal to the rate of change of momentum. For a constant mass, force equals mass times acceleration.
