Answer:

a)   y ’= 0.068 m ,  b)   m_lead = 2,599 kg

Explanation:

a) To solve this exercise, let's use Archimedes' law, which establishes that the pressure of the water is equal to the weight of the dislodged liquid.

Let's write the forces in the equilibrium condition

            B - W = 0

            B = W

Thrust is

            B = ρ_liquid g V_water

Body weight is

             W = m g

the definition of density

           ρ_body = m / V

we substitute

            W = ρ_body g V_body

The volume of the body is

          V_body = L³

The volume of water is

          V_agua = y L²

we substitute

           ρ_liquid g and L2 = rho_body g L3

           ρ_liquid y = ρ_body L

           y = L ρ_body /ρ_liquid

let's calculate

          y = 651/100 0.195

          y = 0.1269 m

this is the distance from the bottom of the cube, the distance from the top of the cube

          y ’= 0.195 -y

          y '= 0.195 - 0.1269

          y ’= 0.068 m

b) In this case the equilibrium equation is

          B - W_body - W_lead = 0

          B = W_body + W_lead

          ρ_liquido g V_liquido = ρ_body g V_body + m_lead g = 0

          ρ_liquid L3 = ρ_body L3 + m_lead = 0

          m_lead = L3 (ρ_liquid - ρ_body)

           

let's calculate

          m_lead = 0.195 3 (1000 - 651)

          m_lead = 2,599 kg

A frictionless cart of mass M is attached to a spring with spring constant k. When the cart is displaced 6 cm from its rest posi
Marianna [84]

Answer:

Time period of horizontal Oscillation  = T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }

As you can see, from the equation, Period of oscillation depends upon the mass and the spring constant. Not on the displacement.

Explanation:

Solution:

As we know that:

F = Kx

Here,

K = Spring constant

x = displacement.

First, they are displacing it with 6 cm from its rest position for which Time period of the oscillation is T = 2 seconds.

But next, they want to know the effect on the time period of the oscillation if the displacement x is doubled from 6cm to 12 cm.

First of all, let us see the equation of the time period of the oscillation.

We need to check, if time period does depend on the displacement or not.

As we know,

Time period of horizontal Oscillation  = T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }

As you can see, from the equation, Period of oscillation depends upon the mass and the spring constant. Not on the displacement.

Since, K is the constant for a particular spring, we need to change the mass of the cart to change the time period.

Hence the Time period will remain same.

Current can be made to flow in a stationary conductor by ............................
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

A is the answer. Im only 12 and i hope this explanation helps you.

Explanation:

Lenz's Law of Electromagnetic Induction. Faraday's Law tells us that inducing a voltage into a conductor can be done by either passing it through a magnetic field, or by moving the magnetic field past the conductor and that if this conductor is part of a closed circuit, an electric current will flow.

1.Calculate the energy transferred by a 12V hairdryer, running on a current of 0.50A, that is left on for 8.0 minutes.
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

1. Energy = 2880 Joules.

2. Energy = 60 Joules.

3. Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

1. Voltage = 12 Volts

Current = 0.5 Amps

Time, t = 8 mins to seconds = 8 * 60 = 480 seconds

To find the energy;

Power = current * voltage

Power = 12 * 0.5

Power = 6 Watts

Next, we find the energy transferred;

Energy = power * time

Energy = 6 * 480

Energy = 2880 Joules

2. Charge, Q = 4 coulombs

Potential difference, p.d = 15V

To find the total energy transferred;

Energy = Q * p.d

Energy = 4 * 15

Energy = 60 Joules

3. Voltage = 6 Volts

Current = 1 Amps

Time = 2 minutes to seconds = 2 * 60 = 120 seconds

To find the quantity of charge;

Quantity of charge = current * time

Quantity of charge = 1 * 120

Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs
