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.

The velocity of a 0.25kg model rocket changes from 15m/s [up] to 40m/s [up] in
pochemuha

Since g is constant,  the force the escaping gas exerts on the rocket will be 10.4 N

<h3>What is Escape Velocity ?</h3>

This is the minimum velocity required for an object to just escape the gravitational influence of an astronomical body.

Given that the velocity of a 0.25kg model rocket changes from 15m/s [up] to 40m/s [up] in 0.60s. The gravitational field intensity is 9.8N/kg.

To calculate the force the escaping gas exerts of the rocket, let first highlight all the given parameters

  • Mass (m) of the rocket 0.25 Kg
  • Initial velocity u = 15 m/s
  • Final Velocity v = 40 m/s
  • Time t = 0.6s
  • Gravitational field intensity g = 9.8N/kg

The force the gas exerts of the rocket = The force on the rocket

The rate change in momentum of the rocket = force applied

F = ma

F = m(v - u)/t

F = 0.25 x (40 - 15)/0.6

F = 0.25 x 41.667

F = 10.42 N

Since g is constant,  the force the escaping gas exerts on the rocket is therefore 10.4 N approximately.

1) c. 2 m/s

Explanation:

The relationship between frequency, wavelength and speed of a wave is

v=\lambda f

where

v is the speed

\lambda is the wavelength

f is the frequency

For the wave in this problem,

f = 4 Hz

\lambda=0.5 m

So, the speed is

v=(0.5 m)(4 Hz)=2 m/s

2)  a. 2.8 m/s

The speed of the wave on a string is given

v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

where

T is the tension in the string

\mu is the linear mass density

In this problem, we have:

T=2 \cdot 4 N=8 N (final tension in the rope, which is twice the initial tension)

\mu = 1 kg/m --> mass density of the rope

Substituting into the formula, we find

v=\sqrt{\frac{8 N}{1 kg/m}}=2.8 m/s
