The rubber ducky has a mass of 5 grams and a volume of 75 mL. How much water does he displace?

Physics

xeze [42]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Volume displaced by ducky = 75 mL = 7.5 x 10⁻⁵ m³

Mass displaced by the ducky = 7.5 x 10⁻² kg = 75 grams

Explanation:

The ducky will displace the volume of the water equal to its own volume.

<u>Volume displaced by ducky = 75 mL = 7.5 x 10⁻⁵ m³</u>

And the mass displaced by ducky will be equal to:

Mass displaced by the ducky = (Density of Water)(Volume displaced by ducky)

Mass displaced by the ducky = (1000 kg/m³)(7.5 x 10⁻⁵ m³)

<u>Mass displaced by the ducky = 7.5 x 10⁻² kg = 75 grams</u>

A 0.75 kg model car is moving west at a speed of 9.0 m/s when it collides head-on with a 2.00 kg model truck that is traveling e
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

  2.5 m/s east

Explanation:

Let east be the positive direction for velocity.

The change in momentum of the 0.75 kg model car is ...

  m1·v2 -m1·v1 = (0.75 kg)(11 m/s) -(0.75 kg)(-9 m/s)

  = (0.75 kg)(20 m/s) = 15 kg·m/s

The change in momentum of the 2.0 kg model car is the opposite of this, so the total change in momentum is zero.

  m2·v2 -m2·v1 = (2 kg)(v2 m/s) -(2 kg)(10 m/s) = 2(v2 -10) kg·m/s

The required relation is ...

  15 kg·m/s = -2(v2 -10) kg·m/s

  -7.5 = v2 -10 . . . . divide by -2

  2.5 = v2 . . . . . . . add 10

The velocity of the model truck after the collision is 2.5 m/s east.

A 75-g projectile traveling at 600 m /s strikes and becomes embedded in the 40-kg block, which is ini-tially stationary. Compute
levacccp [35]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

          Mass, m = 75 g

         Velocity, v = 600 m/s

As no external force is acting on the system in the horizontal line of motion. So, the equation will be as follows.

          m_{1}v_{1_{i}} = (m_{1} + m_{2})vi

where,  m_{1} = mass of the projectile

            m_{2} = mass of block

              v = velocity after the impact

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

              m_{1}v_{1_{i}} = (m_{1} + m_{2})vi

         75(10^{-3}) \times 600 = [(75 \times 10^{-3}) + 50] \times v

                                  = \frac{45}{50.075}

                              v = 0.898 m/s

Now, equation for energy is as follows.

               E = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

                  = \frac{1}{2} \times (75 \times 10^{-3} + 50) \times (600)^{2}

                  = 13500 J

Now, energy after the impact will be as follows.

             E' = \frac{1}{2}[75 \times 10^{-3} + 50](0.9)^{2}

                 = 20.19 J

Therefore, energy lost will be calculated as follows.

           \Delta E = E  E'

                       = (13500 - 20) J

                       = 13480 J

And,   n = \frac{\Delta E}{E}

             = \frac{13480}{13500} \times 100

             = 99.85

             = 99.9%

Thus, we can conclude that percentage n of the original system energy E is 99.9%.

A ski lift is used to transport people from the base of a hill to the top. If the lift leaves the
Liono4ka [1.6K]
The energy of the ski lift at the base is kinetic energy:
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where m is the mass of the ski lift+the people carried, and v=15.5 m/s is velocity at the base.
As long as the ski lift goes upward, its velocity decreases and its kinetic energy converts into potential energy. Eventually, when it reaches the top, its final velocity is v=0, so no kinetic energy is left and it has all converted into gravitational potential energy, which is 
U=mgh
where g=9.81 m/s^2 and h is the height at the top of the hill.

So, since the total energy must conserve, we have
U=K
and so
mgh =  \frac{1}{2}mv^2
from which we find the height:
h= \frac{v^2}{2g}= \frac{(15.5m/s)^2}{2\cdot 9.81 m/s^2}=12 m

How much force is needed to accelerate a 68 kilogram-skier at a rate of 1.2 m/sec^2?
DiKsa [7]
<span>Answer: Force = 81.6 N

Explanation:
According to Newton's Second law:
F = ma --- (1)

Where F = Force = ?
m = Mass = 68 kg
a = Acceleration = 1.2 m/s^2

Plug in the values in (1):
(1) => F = 68 * 1.2
F = 81.6 N (The force needed to accelerate the skier at a rate of 1.2 m/s^2)</span>

A heavy boy and a lightweight girl are balanced on a mass-less seesaw. If they both move forward so that they are one-half their
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

b) Nothing will happen,  the sea saw will still be balanced.

Explanation:

b) Nothing will happen,  the sea saw will still be balanced.

Reason:-

When two kids are balanced, the sum of torques on the seesaw will be zero.

if each kid, reduces their distances by half, then the torque of each kid will be half and the sum of torque of each on the seesaw will be zero.

Therefore the seesaw is balanced
