(i) The density of the solid is 950 kg/m³

(ii) the density of another liquid in which the same solid would float is 200 kg/m³

The given parameters;

mass of the solid in air, Ma = 237.5 g

mass of the solid in liquid, Ms = 12.5 g

density of the liquid, \rho_l = 900 \ kg/m^3

(i) The density of the solid is calculated as follows;

Weight in air - Weight in liquid = upthrust

\frac{\rho_o}{\rho_l}  = \frac{Ma}{M_a - Ms} \\\\\frac{\rho_o}{900}  = \frac{237.5}{237.5 - 12.5}\\\\\frac{\rho_o}{900}  =1.0556\\\\\rho_o = 1.0556 \times 900\\\\\rho_o = 950 \ kg/m^3

(ii) the density of another liquid in which the same solid would float with one-fifth of its volume exposed above the liquid surface.​

This is a low density liquid, because one-fifth of the solid is above the liquid surface while four-fifth is below the liquid surface.

the specific gravity of the liquid = ¹/₅ = 0.2

density of water , \rho_w = 1000 \ kg/m^3

S.G = \frac{\rho_l}{\rho_w} \\\\0.2 = \frac{\rho_l}{1000} \\\\\rho_l = 0.2 \times 1000\\\\\rho_l = 200 \ kg/m^3

Thus, the density of another liquid in which the same solid would float is 200 kg/m³

A closely wound search coil has an area of 3.13 cm2, 135 turns, and a resistance of 61.1 Ω. It is connected to a charge-measurin
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the magnitude of magnetic field be B .

flux passing through the coil's  = area of coil x field x no of turns

Φ = 3.13 x 10⁻⁴ x B x 135 = 422.55 x 10⁻⁴ B .

emf induced = dΦ / dt , Φ is magnetic flux.

current i = dΦ /dt x 1/R

charge through the coil = ∫ i dt

= ∫   dΦ /dt x 1/R dt

= 1 / R ∫ dΦ

= Φ / R

Total resistance R = 61.1 + 44.4 = 105.5 ohm .

3.44 x 10⁻⁵ = 422.55 x 10⁻⁴ B / 105.5

B = 3.44 x 10⁻⁵ x 105.5  / 422.55 x 10⁻⁴

= .86 x 10⁻¹

= .086 T .

A cell phone weighing 80 grams is flying through the air at 15 m/s. What is its kinetic energy
Contact [7]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the cell phone is 9J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of motion.

The kinetic energy is expressed as

KE= 1/2m(v)²

Given data

Mass of cell phone m= 80g--to kg=80/1000= 0.08kg

Velocity of cell phone v= 15m/s

Substituting our given data we have

KE= 1/2*0.08(15)²

KE= (0.08*225)/2

KE=18/2

KE= 9J
