Answer:

C: Mass of body

Explanation:

Upthrust is defined as the upward force that a liquid will exert on a body floating atop it.

Now, Formula for upthrust is;

Upthrust = density of liquid × volume of the body × acceleration due to gravity.

From the formula, we can see that upthrust depends on density, volume and acceleration due to gravity.

Thus, looking at the options, the one that doesn't apply is mass of body.

A man 6 feet tall walks at a rate of 6 feet per second away from a light that is 15 feet above the ground.

Tems11 [23]

Answer:(a)10 ft/s

(b)4 ft/s

Explanation:

Given

height of light $=15 feet$

height of man $=6 feet$

$\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=6 ft/s$

From diagram

$\frac{15}{y}=\frac{6}{y-x}$

$5(y-x)=2y$

$3y=5x$

differentiate both sides

$3\times \frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}=5\times \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}$

Tip of shadow is moving at the rate of

$\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}=\frac{5}{3}\times 6=10 ft/s$

(b)rate at which length of his shadow is changing

Length of shadow is $y-x$

differentiating w.r.t time

$\frac{\mathrm{d} (y-x)}{\mathrm{d} t}=\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}-\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}$

$\frac{\mathrm{d} (y-x)}{\mathrm{d} t}=10-6=4 ft/s$

A 2kg box is pushed along a flat frictionless surface with an applied force of 53.91newton j+19.62 j were j is horizontal and j

tamaranim1 [39]

Since the box doesn't move vertically at all, no work is done by the vertical component of the force.

If 53.91 Newtons is the horizontal component of the force (very unclear in the question), then the work done is

Work = (force) x (distance)

Work = (53.91 N) x (10 m)

Work = 539.1 Joules

Power = (work done) / (time to do the work)

Power = (539.1 joules) / (90 sec)

Power = (539.1/90) (joule/sec)

Power = 5.99 watts

=====================================

Note: If the mass of the box is only 2 kg, and you push it along the surface with a constant force of 53⁺ Newtons, and the surface really is frictionless, then that box is gonna cover a WHOOOOOLE LOT more than 10 meters in 90 seconds. I get 109,168 meters !

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The maximum temperature rise = 0.047 °C

Explanation:

Potential Energy, P = mgh

Energy transfered, Q=mcΔT

Potential energy = Energy transfered

mgh = mcΔT

gh = cΔT

ΔT = gh/c

ΔT = (9.81 * 20) / 4186

ΔT = 0.047 °C
