Answer:

The density of the woman is 950.8 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given;

fraction of the woman's volume above the surface = 4.92%

then, fraction of the woman's volume below the surface = 100 - 4.92% = 95.08%

the specific gravity of the woman $= \frac{95.08}{100 } = 0.9508$

The density of the woman is calculate as;

$Specific \ gravity \ of \ the \ woman = \frac{Density \ of \ the \ woman }{Density \ of \ fresh \ water }\\\\ Density \ of \ the \ woman = Specific \ gravity \ of \ the \ woman \ \times \ Density \ of \ fresh \ water$

Density of fresh water = 1000 kg/m³

Density of the woman = 0.9508 x 1000 kg/m³

Density of the woman = 950.8 kg/m³

Therefore, the density of the woman is 950.8 kg/m³

Un coche inicia un viaje de 450 km a las ocho de la mañana con una velocidad media de 90 km/h. ¿A qué hora llegará a su destino?

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Llegara a su destino a la 1:00 pm

Explanation:

Si el coche va a 90 km/h buscamos un numero q al multiplicarlo por 90 nos de 450. Entonces 90×5 = 450, si hacemos la cuenta desde las ocho de la mañana mas las 5 horas del viaje terminaria llegando a su destino a la 1:00 pm.

Six artificial satellites circle a space station at constant speed. The mass m of each satellite, distance L from the space stat

nikklg [1K]

Answers:

a) $T_{2}>T_{5}>T_{1}>T_{3}=T_{6}>T_{4}$

b) $a_{4}>a_{6}>a_{1}>a_{3}>a_{5}>a_{2}$

Explanation:

a) Since we are told the satellites circle the space station at constant speed, we can assume they follow a uniform circular motion and their tangential speeds $V$ are given by:

$V=\omega L=\frac{2\pi}{T} L$ (1)

Where:

$\omega$ is the angular frequency

$L$ is the radius of the orbit of each satellite

$T$ is the period of the orbit of each satellite

Isolating $T$ :

$T=\frac{2 \pi L}{V}$ (2)

Applying this equation to each satellite:

$T_{1}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{1}}=261.79 s$ (3)

$T_{2}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{2}}=1570.79 s$ (4)

$T_{3}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{3}}=196.349 s$ (5)

$T_{4}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{4}}=98.174 s$ (6)

$T_{5}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{5}}=785.398 s$ (7)

$T_{6}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{6}}=196.349 s$ (8)

Ordering this periods from largest to smallest:

$T_{2}>T_{5}>T_{1}>T_{3}=T_{6}>T_{4}$

b) Acceleration $a$ is defined as the variation of velocity in time:

$a=\frac{V}{T}$ (9)

Applying this equation to each satellite:

$a_{1}=\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}}=0.458 m/s^{2}$ (10)

$a_{2}=\frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}=0.0254 m/s^{2}$ (11)

$a_{3}=\frac{V_{3}}{T_{3}}=0.4074 m/s^{2}$ (12)

$a_{4}=\frac{V_{4}}{T_{4}}=1.629 m/s^{2}$ (13)

$a_{5}=\frac{V_{5}}{T_{5}}=0.101 m/s^{2}$ (14)

$a_{6}=\frac{V_{6}}{T_{6}}=0.814 m/s^{2}$ (15)

Ordering this acceerations from largest to smallest:

$a_{4}>a_{6}>a_{1}>a_{3}>a_{5}>a_{2}$

Which has a greater force: a semi-truck at rest or a moving bicycle?

Wittaler [7]

Although the semi truck certainly has a larger mass, it is not in motion and therefore does not have any momentum. The bicycle however has both mass and velocity and therefore has the larger momentum of the pair.
