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 type of energy embodied in oscillating electric and magnetic fields is called
yaroslaw [1]

Answer: Electromagnetic radiation

Explanation:

Electromagnetic radiation is a combination of oscillating electric and magnetic fields, which propagate through space carrying energy from one place to another.

To understand it better:

This radiation is spread thanks to the electromagnetic fields produced by moving electric charges and their sources can be natural or man-made.

It should be noted that the energy of electromagnetic radiation can vary and depending on its frequency it can be useful for various situations.
