What percentage of an iron anchor’s weight will be supported by buoyant force when submerged in salt water?

Physics
1 answer:
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

0.87

Explanation:

To solve this, we use the principle of Archimedes. Archimedes Principal of flotation states that "the buoyant force of an object is equal to the total weight of the fluid it displaces."

In the attachment, I stated the mathemacal formula, of which

F(B) = The buoyant force

w(fl) = The weight of the salt water displaced

p(iron) = density of iron

p(salt) = density of the salt water = 1025 kg/m³

F' = weight of the iron in air

F = weight of the iron in salt water

p(man) = density of man = 7680 kg/m³

The rest are the easy calculations done by substituting the values

Answer:

took longer to complete one oscillation, that means its PERIOD increased, and the distance between the peaks of the graph would be longer.

line would be less. the period of oscillation would have any effect on the graph

A piece of metal has a mass of 9.00 kg. If it displaces water that fills a container 10.0 cm x 10.0 cm x 10.0 cm, what is the ma
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

9000 kg/m³

Explanation:

Density is mass per volume.

D = M / V

D = (9.00 kg) / (0.100 m × 0.100 m × 0.100 m)

D = 9000 kg/m³

Which of the following correctly describes the relative air pressure at the center of a hurricane, with respect to the horizonta
vampirchik [111]

Explanation:

The pressure of hurricane which is high decreases gradually as we move higher . The pressure is maximum at the surface . Hence the relative air pressure is higher at the surface and low at the top . Like wise the pressure is low at the center and keeps on increasing when we move outside . Hence the answer is pressure is high at surface and low aloft.
