An object accelerates downward at a constant rate of 3.75 m/s2 while completely submerged in water. Neglect the viscosity (fluid

friction) of the water. The average density of the object is ______ kg/m3. The density of water is 1000 kg/m3 and g

Answer:

Do = density of obect      Dw = density of water

Weight of object = V g Do

Weight of water = V g Dw

F = m a = V Do a = V g Do - V g Dw

Acceleration of object = mass * force on object

Do (g - a) = Dw g

Do = Dw ( 1 / (1 - a / g) = 1000 * 1 / (1 - 3.75 / 9.80)  kg/m^3

Do = 1441 kg / m^3

If no acceleration then density of object = density of water

madreJ [45]
A cloud in space that is composed of dust and gas is call a nebula. The word "nebula" is derived from the Latin word for "cloud," and nebulae in space are indeed large interstellar clouds made up of dust, hydrogen, helium and plasma.

Adding heat to a liquid causes which of the following physical changes?
SashulF [63]

In almost every case in nature, adding heat to a liquid
causes the density of the liquid to decrease.  That is,
when the liquid gets warmer, it expands and occupies
more space.

The one big exception to this rule is water ! 

Starting with a block of ice at zero°C (32°F), as the ice melts,
becomes water at zero°C, and all the way to 4°C (about 39°F),
its density increases all the way.   That is, it shrinks and occupies
less
volume as it goes from ice at zero°C to water at 4°C.

This sounds like an interesting but insignificant quirk ... until
you realize that if water didn't do this, then life on Earth would
be impossible !

Light is incident on an air-water interface at an angle of 30 degree to the normal. What angle does the refracted ray make with
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

22 degree

Explanation:

Angle of incidence, i = 30 degree

the refractive index of water with respect to air is 4/3.

As the ray of light travels from rarer medium to denser medium, that mean air to water, the refraction takes place.

According to Snell's law,

Refractive index of water with respect to air = Sin i / Sin r

Where, r be the angle of refraction

4 / 3 = Sin 30 / Sin r

0.75 = 2 Sin r

Sin r = 0.375

r = 22 degree

Thus, the angle of refraction is 22 degree.

A boy is trying to roll a bowling ball up a hill, as shown in the image below. If
kherson [118]

The minimum initial velocity that the ball must have for it to reach the top of the hill is 21 m/s. The correct option is D.

<h3>What is mechanical energy?</h3>

The mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic energy and the potential energy of an object at any instant of time.

M.E = KE +PE

A boy is trying to roll a bowling ball up a hill. The friction is ignored.  The ball must have to reach the top of the hill with a velocity. The acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

The conservation of energy principle states that total mechanical energy remains conserved in all situations where there is no external force acting on the system.

M.E bottom of hill = M.E on top of hill

Kinetic energy + Potential energy = Kinetic energy  + Potential energy

1/2 mu² + 0 =  0 + mgh

At the top of hill, the velocity will become zero. So, final kinetic energy is zero.

Substituting the values, we have

1/2 x u² = 9.8 x 22.5

u = sqrt [2 x9.8 x 22.5 ]

u= 21 m/s

Thus, the minimum initial velocity that the ball must have for it to reach the top of the hill is 21 m/s.
