Cm^3 is same as mL

13.5 g / 5 mL = 2.7 g/mL
look up densities of metals
aluminum has a density of 2.7 g/mL

Why does sound propagate faster in solid bodies than in liquids and faster in liquids than in air?

storchak [24]

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

this is because particles in solids are packed very closely together, thus , the particles collide with each other frequently and thus transfer of energy is faster. however, particles in liquid are closely packed but not as close as in solid so the particles do not collide as frequently. thus, transfer of energy slower than in solid. furthermore, the particles in gas are spaced far apart from each other, thus the particles don't collide with each other frequently, thus transfer of energy is very slow in gas.

hope you get it,

A thin layer of liquid methylene iodide (n = 1.756) is sandwiched between two flat, parallel plates of glass (n = 1.50). What mu

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

t = 96.1 nm

Explanation:

For strong reflection through liquid layer we know that the path difference between two reflected light rays must be integral multiple of wavelength

now we know that the path difference of two reflected light from thin liquid layer is given as

$2\mu t - \frac{\lambda}{2} = N\lambda$

here we know that

$\mu = 1.756$

t = thickness of layer

N = 0 (for minimum thickness of layer)

$\lambda = 675 nm$

now we have

$2(1.756) t = \frac{675 nm}{2}$

$t = 96.1 nm$

A tank with a volume of 0.150 m3 contains 27.0oC helium gas at a pressure of 100 atm. How many balloons can be blown up if each

jekas [21]

Answer:

884 balloons

Explanation:

Assume ideal gas, since temperature is constant, then the product of pressure and volume is constant.

So if pressures reduces from 100 to 1.2, the new volume would be

$V_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2} = \frac{100*0.15}{1.2} = 12.5 m^2$

The spherical volume of each of the balloon of 30cm diameter (15 cm or 0.15 m in radius) is

$V_b = \frac{4}{3}\pir^3 = \frac{4}{3}\pi 0.15^3 = 0.014 m^3$

The number of balloons that 12.5 m3 can fill in is

$V_2/V_b = 12.5 / 0.014 = 884$

A miniature quadcopter is located at x = -2.25 m and y, - 5.70 matt - 0 and moves with an average velocity having components Vv,

kupik [55]

Recall that average velocity is equal to change in position over a given time interval,

$\vec v_{\rm ave} = \dfrac{\Delta \vec r}{\Delta t}$

so that the <em>x</em>-component of $\vec v_{\rm ave}$ is

$\dfrac{x_2 - (-2.25\,\mathrm m)}{1.60\,\mathrm s} = 2.70\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}$

and its <em>y</em>-component is

$\dfrac{y_2 - 5.70\,\mathrm m}{1.60\,\mathrm s} = -2.50\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}$

Solve for $x_2$ and $y_2$ , which are the <em>x</em>- and <em>y</em>-components of the copter's position vector after <em>t</em> = 1.60 s.

$x_2 = -2.25\,\mathrm m + \left(2.70\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(1.60\,\mathrm s) \implies \boxed{x_2 = 2.07\,\mathrm m}$

$y_2 = 5.70\,\mathrm m + \left(-2.50\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(1.60\,\mathrm s) \implies \boxed{y_2 = 1.70\,\mathrm m}$

Note that I'm reading the given details as

$x_1 = -2.25\,\mathrm m \\\\ y_1 = -5.70\,\mathrm m \\\\ v_x = 2.70\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\\\\ v_y=-2.50\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}$

so if any of these are incorrect, you should make the appropriate adjustments to the work above.
