A block of wood of length L = 21.0 cm, width w = 9.53 cm, and height h = 5.92 cm is just barely immersed in water by placing a m

ass m on the top of the block. The density of the wood is rho = 0.390 g/cm^3. The value of m is:______
a. 0.72 kg
b. 1.2 kg
c. 1.6 kg
d. 7.1 kg
e. 0.36 kg

Answer:

0.462kg

Explanation:

Density = Mass/Volume

Given

Density of the wood = 0.390 g/cm^3

Volume of the wood = Length * Width * Height

Volume = 21 * 9.53 * 5.92

Volume = 1,184.7696cm³

Get the mass m;

mass = density * volume

mass = 0.390 * 1,184.7696

mass = 462.060144g

The mass in kg is 0.462kg

A college student holds a pail full of water by the handle and whirls it around in a vertical circle at a constant speed. The ra
Pavlova-9 [17]

The minimum speed of the water must be 3.4 m/s

Explanation:

There are two forces acting on the water in the pail when it is at the top of its circular motion:

  • The force of gravity, mg, acting downward (where m is the mass of the water and g the acceleration of gravity)
  • The normal reaction, N also acting downward

Since the water is in circular motion, the net force must be equal to the centripetal force, so:

N+mg=m\frac{v^2}{r}

Where:

g=9.8 m/s^2

v is the speed of the pail

r = 1.2 m is the radius of the circle

The water starts to spill out when the normal reaction of the pail becomes zero:

N = 0

When this occurs, the equation becomes:

mg=m\frac{v^2}{r}\\v=\sqrt{gr}

And substitutin the values of g and r, we find the minimum speed that the water must have in order not to spill out:

v=\sqrt{(9.8)(1.2)}=3.4 m/s

A gas is placed in a storage tank at a pressure of 49.2 atm at 39.0C . As a safety device, a small metal plug in the tank is mad
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

The maximum pressure that will be attained in the tank before the plug melts and releases gas should be less than 74.26 atm.

Explanation:

To calculate the final pressure of the system, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1\text{ and }T_1 are the initial pressure and temperature of the gas.

P_2\text{ and }T_2 are the final pressure and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

P_1=49.2 atm\\T_1=39.0^oC = 312.15 K\\P_2=?\\T_2=198^oC=471.15 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{49.2atm }{312.15 K}=\frac{P_2}{471.15 K}\\\\P_2=74.26 atm

The maximum pressure that will be attained in the tank before the plug melts and releases gas should be less than 74.26 atm.

Levart [38]

Answer:

the rate that the energy of a system is transformed

Explanation:

We can define energy as the capacity or ability to do work. Power is defined as the rate of doing work or the rate at which energy is transformed. It can also be regarded as the time rate of energy transfer. In older physics literature, power is sometimes referred to as activity.

Power is given by energy/time. Its unit is watt which is defined as joule per second. Another popular unit of power is horsepower. 1 horsepower = 746 watts.

Very large magnitude of power is measured in killowats and megawatts.
