Answer:true

Explanation:

Displacement is the vector representation of a change in position. It is path independent and is equivalent to the straight line distance between the start and end locations. Distance is a scalar quantity that reflects the path traveled.

A bucket that has a mass of 20 kg when filled with sand needs to be lifted to the top of a 15 meter tall building. You have a ro

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building,

W=67.46 Nm

Explanation:

in this question we have given

mass of bucket=20kg

mass of rope= $.2\frac{kg}{m}$

height of building= 15 meter

We have to find the work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the building =work done in lifting the rope + work done in lifting the sand

work done in lifting the rope is given as, $W_{1}=Force \times displacement$

= $\int\limits^{15}_0 {.2x} \, dx$ ..............(1)

= $.1\times 15^2$

=22.5 Nm

work done in lifting the sand is given as, $W_{2}=Force \times displacement$

$W_{2}=\int\limits^{15}_0 F \, dx$ .................(2)

Here,

F=mx+c

here,

c=20-18

c=2

m= $\frac{20-18}{15-0}$

m=.133

Therefore,

$F=.133x+2$

Put value of F in equation 2

$W_{2}=\int\limits^{15}_0 (.133x+2) \, dx$

$W_{2}=.133 \times 112.5+2\times15\\W_{2}=14.96+30\\W_{2}=44.96 Nm$

Therefore,

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building, $W=W_{1}+W_{2}$

W=22.5 Nm+44.96 Nm

W=67.46 Nm

What is the volume of a rock with a density of 3.00 g/cm3 and a mass of 600g?

Mademuasel [1]

The equation of D = m/V

Where D = density
m = mass
and V = volume

We are solving for V, so with the manipulation of variables we multiply V on both sides giving us
V(D) = m
now we divide D on both sides giving us
V = m/D

We know our mass which is 600g and our density is 3.00 g/cm^3
so
V = 600g/3.00g/cm^3 = 200cm^3 or 200mL

a cubic centimeter (cm^3) is one of the units for volume. It's exactly like mL. 1 cm^3 = 1 mL

If you wish to change it to L, you'd have to convert.
