Answer:

The density of gold is of 18 grams per cm3.

Explanation:

The mass density of a homogeneous material expresses how much mass of that material is present in a given volume. Since the density of an object is obtained by dividing its mass by its volume, to obtain the density of gold, its 90 grams of mass must be divided by its 5 cm3 volume, performing the following calculation:

90/5 = X

18 = X

Thus, the density of gold is 18 grams per cm3.

Find the unknown mass of the block 1 needed to balance the bar. Assume that the mass of the bar is negligible. Block 1 is locate

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

Incomplete question: The masses of the blocks m₂ = 1.5 kg and m₃ = 2 kg

Explanation:

Given data:

L₁ = length = 0.85 m

L₂ = 0.25 m

L₃ = 0.5 m

m₂ = 1.5 kg

m₃ = 2 kg

Question: Find the unknown mass of the block 1 needed to balance the bar, m₁ = ?

The torque is zero (intermediate point of the bar)

$-m_{1} gL_{1} +m_{2} gL_{2} +m_{3} gL_{3} =0$

Is negative because mass 1 is to the left of the coordinate system (see the diagram)

$m_{1} =\frac{m_{2} gL_{2}+m_{3} gL_{3} }{L_{1} } =\frac{(1.5*0.25)+(2*0.5)}{0.85} =1.6176kg$
