Answer:

Mp =Pp g    where p = density of solid Platinum

Wp  = Mp Pp g     weight of mass M

Volume displaced is 1 cm^3

Weight of water = .0098 N   since 1 cm^3 displaced

Or Ww = 1 cm^3 * .001 kg / cm^3 * 9.8 N/kg = .0098 N

8 Grade Science <br>Explain how a Lava lamp demonstrates convection currents. ​
Greeley [361]

Answer:

As a substance gains heat energy (in the case of the lava lamp, heat is transferred from the hot light bulb to the lava), it becomes less dense than the surrounding liquid ), causing the substance to rise.

A nuclear fission power plant has an actual efficiency of 32%. If 0.18 MW of power are produced by the nuclear fission, how much
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

 P₀ = 5.76 x 10⁻² MW

Explanation:

given,

efficiency of the power plant = 32%

Power produced by the nuclear fission = 0.18 MW

the power plant output = ?

using formula of efficiency

\eta = \dfrac{P_0}{P}

where P is the power produced in the power plant

          P₀ is the power output of the power plant

\eta = \dfrac{P_0}{P}

0.32 = \dfrac{P_0}{0.18}

 P₀ = 0.18 x 0.32

 P₀ =  0.0576 MW

 P₀ = 5.76 x 10⁻² MW

Power plant output is equal to  P₀ = 5.76 x 10⁻² MW

Some metal conductor has a resistance of 12 ohms. When plugged into a circuit, the amount of heat 144J is released in 12s. What
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

12V

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Resistance  = 12ohms

Heat released = 144J

Time taken = 12s

Unknown:

Voltage at the ends of the conductors = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we must first determine the power expended by the circuit.

Power is the rate at which work is done;

                P  = \frac{work done }{time}

                    = \frac{144}{12}

                    = 12W

Electrical power is given as;

             P  = IV  = \frac{V^{2} }{R}

            Since V is the unknown, we  solve for it;

          12  = \frac{V^{2} }{12}

           V  = 12V
