Answer:

the earth gravity

Explanation:

Gravitational attraction provides the centripetal force needed to keep planets in orbit around the Sun and all types of satellite in orbit around the Earth. The Earth's gravity keeps the Moon orbiting us.

Hint: Here, we can see that 12 and 13 are consecutive numbers. So, all numbers between squares of 12 and 13 are non-square numbers. Therefore, first find squares of 12 and 13 and then subtract square of 12 from square of 13, we get numbers of non-square numbers. At the last subtract 1 from the result obtained as both extremes numbers are not included.

Complete step-by-step answer:

In these types of questions, a simple concept of numbers should be known that is between squares of two consecutive numbers all numbers are non-square numbers. Also one tricky point should remember that whenever we find the difference between two numbers we get a number of numbers between them including anyone of the extreme numbers. So we subtract 1 to exclude both extreme numbers.

Square of 12 = 122=144 and square of 12 = 132=169

As 12 and 13 are consecutive numbers so all numbers between their squares will be non-square numbers.

Therefore, 169 – 144 = 25

Total number of numbers between 169 and 144 (i.e., excluding 144 and 169) = 25 – 1 = 24.

A block of a plastic material floats in water with 42.9% of its volume under water. What is the density of the block in kg/m3?

adell [148]

To solve this problem we will apply the principle of buoyancy of Archimedes and the relationship given between density, mass and volume.

By balancing forces, the force of the weight must be counteracted by the buoyancy force, therefore

$\sum F = 0$

$F_b -W = 0$

$F_b = W$

$F_b = mg$

Here,

m = mass

g =Gravitational energy

The buoyancy force corresponds to that exerted by water, while the mass given there is that of the object, therefore

$\rho_w V_{displaced} g = mg$

Remember the expression for which you can determine the relationship between mass, volume and density, in which

$\rho = \frac{m}{V} \rightarrow m = V\rho$

In this case the density would be that of the object, replacing

$\rho_w V_{displaced} g = V\rho g$

Since the displaced volume of water is 0.429 we will have to

$\rho_w (0.429V) = V \rho$

$0.429\rho_w= \rho$

The density of water under normal conditions is $1000kg / m ^ 3$ , so

$0.429(1000) = \rho$

$\rho = 429kg/m^3$

The density of the object is $429kg / m ^ 3$
