Answer:

Sink

Explanation:

The normal density of water is 1 g/cm3. Since the rock has a higher density of 1.72g/cm3, it will sink in water.

A 500-N weight sits on the small piston of a hydraulic machine. The small piston has area 2.0 cm2. If the large piston has area

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

W₂= 10000 N

Explanation:

Pascal´s Principle can be applied in the hydraulic press:

If we apply a small force (F1) on a small area piston A1, then, a pressure (P) is generated that is transmitted equally to all the particles of the liquid until it reaches a larger area piston and therefore a force (F2) can be exerted that is proportional to the area (A2) of the piston:

Pressure is defined as the force (F) applied per unit area (A)

P=F/A (N/m²)

P1=P2

$\frac{F_{1} }{A_{1} } = \frac{F_{2} }{A_{2} }$

$F_{2} = \frac{F_{1}*A_{2} }{A_{1}}$ Equation (1)

Data

W₁ = weight sits on the small piston

F₁ = W₁= 500 N

A₁ = 2.0 cm²

A₂ = 40 cm²

Calculation of the weight (W₂) can the large piston support

We replace data in the equation (1)

$F_{2} = \frac{(500)*(40) }{2}$

F₂ = 10000 N

W₂= F₂= 10000 N

A charge of 8.5 × 10–6 C is in an electric field that has a strength of 3.2 × 105 N/C. What is the electric force acting on the

Sonja [21]

2.72 N

Explanation:

Step 1:

From the basic formula in electrostatics

F = E * q

where F = Force due to charges

E = Electric field strength

q = Charge

Step 2:

From the given question

q= $8.5*10^{-6} C$

E = $3.2 * 10^{5} N/C$

F = $8.5 * 10^{-6} * 3.2 * 10^{5} = 2.72$ N

The three stages of a train route took 1 hour ,2 hours ,and 4 hours . The first two stages were 80km and 200km of the train aver

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

the third stage was 480 km long

Explanation:

Stage 1:

Time = 1 hours

Speed = 80km

Stage 2:

Time = 2 hours

Speed = 200km

Stage 3:

Time = 4 hours

Let the Distance at the stage 3 be x

Average speed of the train route = 100 km/h

$\frac{ \text{speed at stage 1} + \text{speed at stage 2} + \text{speed at stage 3}}{3} = 0$

$\frac{ \text{speed at stage 1} + \text{speed at stage 2} + \text{speed at stage 3}}{3} = 100$

Lets find the speed at stage 1

Speed = $\frac{Distance }{Time}$

Speed = $\frac{80}{1}$

Speed 1= 80 km/hr

The speed at stage 2

Speed = $\frac{Distance }{Time}$

Speed = $\frac{200}{2}$

Speed 2 = 100 km/hr

The speed at stage 3

Speed = $\frac{Distance }{Time}$

Speed = $\frac{x}{4}$

Speed 3 = $\frac{x}{4}$

we kow that average is ,

$\frac{ \text{speed 1} + \text{speed 2} + \text{speed 3}}{3} = 100$

$\frac{ 80 + 100+ \frac{x}{4} }{3} = 100$

$\frac{ 180 + \frac{x}{4} }{3} = 100$

$\frac{ \frac{720 +x}{4} }{3} = 100$

$\frac{720 +x}{4} \times \frac{1}{3} = 100$

$\frac{720 +x}{12} = 100$

$720 +x = 100 \times 12$

$720 +x = 1200$

$x = 1200- 720$

x = 480

Reil [10]

Answer:

Speed; v = 17 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

Radius; r = 110m

Angle; θ = 15°

Now, we know that in circular motion,

v² = rg•tanθ

Thus,

v = √(rg•tanθ)

Where,

v is velocity

r is radius

g is acceleration due to gravity

θ is the angle

Thus,

v = √(rg•tanθ) = √(110 x 9.8•tan15)

v = √(288.85)

v = 17 m/s
