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.

If this decay has a half-life of 10.2 years, what mass of 60.8g carbon-14 will remain after 20.4 years
OLEGan [10]
20.4 years is 20.4/10.2 = 2 half-life cycles, which means a quarter of the starting mass or 15.2 g will remain after this time.

Three sticks are arranged to form a right triangle. If the lengths of the three sticks are 0.47 m, 0.62 m and 0.78 m, what are t
Svetradugi [14.3K]

The angles in the triangle are 91 degrees, 53 degrees and 36 degrees respectively.

<h3>What is the cosine rule?</h3>

From the cosine rule we know that;

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2abcosC

Since;

a = 0.47 m

b =  0.62 m

c =  0.78 m

Then;

(0.78)^2 = (0.47)^2 + (0.62)^2 - 2(0.47 * 0.62)cosC

0.61 = 0.22 + 0.38 - 0.58 cosC

0.61 - ( 0.22 + 0.38) = - 0.58 cosC

0.01 = - 0.58 cosC

C = cos-1(0.01/-0.58)

C = 91 degrees

Using the sine rule;

b/Sin B = c/Sin C

0.62/sinB = 0.78/sin 91

0.62/Sin B = 0.78

B = sin-1 (0.62//0.78)

B = 53 degrees

Angle A is obtained from the sum of angles in a triangle;

180 - (91 + 53)

A = 36 degrees
