Answer:
D) shrivel up, since the atmosphere exerts more force on the can as it cools.
Explanation:
As the water in the can is boiled the can gets heated up and contains hot vapour and gases which are rare in density and are in their expanded state. In this state when the can is sealed tightly such that no air leaks in or out of the can. When the temperature of the can drops, the gases shrink in volume and the pressure inside the can become less than the pressure of the atmosphere which leads to shriveling of the can.
Density is the ratio of a substance's mass to its volume. On the other hand, according to Archimedes' principle, the volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of the object placed on the water. Thus, the density of the metal is equal to 8.39 mL. So, the density would be
Density = 32.5 g/8.39 mL = 3.87 g/mL
Answer:
a = 2 m/s^2
which agrees with the third answer option provided.
Explanation:
Recall the kinematic formula for displacement under the action of a constant acceleration "a":
yf - yi = 1/2 a t^2
using the information provided this equation becomes:
9 = 1/2 a (3)^2
solve for a:
9 * 2 / 9 = a
then a = 2 m/s^2
which agrees with the third answer option provided.
