A body weighs 100newtons and 80newtons when submerged in water.calculate the upthrust action on the body

Physics
1 answer:
katovenus [111]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

20 N

Explanation:

In air, the normal force is equal to the weight.

∑F = ma

N − mg = 0

N = mg

Submerged in water, the normal force is equal to the weight minus the buoyant force:

∑F = ma

B + N − mg = 0

N = mg − B

Plugging in values:

80 N = 100 N − B

B = 20 N

andrezito [222]

Answer:

<em>The force exerted by each string is 25 N</em>

Explanation:

<u>Net Force</u>

The net force is the vector sum of forces acting on a body. The net force is a single force that represents the effect of the original forces on the body's motion. It gives the particle the same acceleration as all those actual forces together as described by Newton's second law of motion.

The picture described in the problem is hanging at rest supported by two vertical strings. This means that the net force acting on it is zero.

Assume the magnitude of each of these equal forces is F, and the picture has a weight of W=50 N, thus the net force is:

F + F - W

The positive signs indicate an upwards direction and the negative sign means a downwards direction. Since the net force is zero:

F + F - W = 0

2F = W

F = W/2 = 50 N/2

F = 25 N

The force exerted by each string is 25 N

A train is moving with a velocity of 70 km/h.
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

B: It is moving north.

Explanation:

We are told that a train is moving with a velocity of 70 km/h.

Now, we are also told that the positive direction is north.

This means that the train is moving in the northern direction.

We can't say if it is speeding up or not because we are not given the acceleration.

Thus, option B is correct
