Answer:

The density of the wood is

ρ₂ = 1.21 g / cm³

Explanation:

The block measures

V₁ = 10.0 cm * 4.0 cm * 2.0 cm

V₁ = 80 cm³

Now the block measures under the water getting just the face below as 1.65 cm

V₂ = 10.0 cm * 4.0 cm * 1.65 cm

V₂ = 66 cm³

So to determine the density knowing the mass are the same as the weight

ρ₁ * V₁ = ρ₂ * V₂

Using the density of the water as a

ρ₁ = 1 g / cm ³

1 g / cm³ * 80 cm ³ = ρ₂ * 66 cm³

ρ₂ = 1.21 g / cm³

When air expands adiabatically (without gaining or losing heat), its pressure P and volume V are related by the equation PV1.4=C
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

\frac{dV}{dt}=21.21cm^3/min

Explanation:

We are given that

PV^{1.4}=C

Where C=Constant

\frac{dP}{dt}=-7KPa/minute

V=420 cubic cm and P=99KPa

We have to find the rate at which the  volume increasing at this instant.

Differentiate w.r.t t

V^{1.4}\frac{dP}{dt}+1.4V^{0.4}P\frac{dV}{dt}=0

Substitute the values

(420)^{1.4}\times (-7)+1.4(420)^{0.4}(99)\frac{dV}{dt}=0

1.4(420)^{0.4}(99)\frac{dV}{dt}=(420)^{1.4}\times (7)

\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{(420)^{1.4}\times (7)}{1.4(420)^{0.4}(99)}

\frac{dV}{dt}=21.21cm^3/min

A box with a mass of 2 kg only has four forces acting on it: One force of 16 N due East. One force of 24 N due South. One force
julsineya [31]

Answer:

The magnitude of acceleration is 3 m/s^2.

Explanation:

The net force along North-South direction is 18-24=-6 N.

The net force along East-West direction is 16-16=0 N

The net magnitude of force is square root of (-6)^2+0^2 which is 6 N.

By Newton's Second law,

Force F=ma

Therefore acceleration a=F/m

                                       a=6/2

                                       a=3 m/s^2

Which term describes the number of thoughs that pass a point in a given amount of time
NeX [460]

The term that describes the number of thoughs that pass a point in a given amount of time is FREQUENCY.

In wave theory, frequency refers to the number of wave that pass through a fixed point in a given amount of time. Frequency is usually measure in Hertz. The mathematical formula for finding frequency is:

F = Velocity of wave / wavelength of wave.
