Since the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of both interacting objects, more massive objects will attract each other with a greater gravitational force. So as the mass of either object increases, the force of gravitational attraction between them also increases.

Because the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of both interacting objects, more massive objects will attract each other with a greater gravitational force. Therefore as the mass of either object increases, the force of gravitational attraction between them also increases.

You are trying to determine the specific gravity of a solid object that floats in water. If m is the mass of your object, mS is
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Specific Gravity = m/[m(s)-m(os)]

Explanation:

Specific gravity, also called relative density, is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance. By this definition we need to find out the ratio of density of the object of mass m to the density of the surrounding liquid.

m = mass of the object

<u>Weight in air</u>

W (air) = mg, where g is the gravitational acceleration

<u>Weight with submerged with only one mass</u>

m(s)g + Fb = mg + m(b)g, <em>consider this to be equation 1</em>

where Fb is the buoyancy force

Weight with submerged with both masses

m(os)g + Fb’ = mg + m(b)g, <em>consider this to be equation 2</em>

<u>equation 1 – equation 2 would give us</u>

m(s)g – m(os)g = Fb’ – Fb

where Fb = D x V x g, where D is the density of the liquid the object is submerged in, g is the force of gravity and V is the submerged volume of the object

m(s)g – m(os)g = D(l) x V x g

m(s) – m(os) = D(l) x V

we know that Mass = Density x V, which in our case would be, D(b) x V, which also means

V = Mass/D(b), where D(b) is the density of the mass

<u>Substituting V into the above equation we get</u>

m(s) – m(os) = [D(l) x m)/ D(b)]

Rearranging to get the ratio of density of object to the density of liquid

D(b)/D(l) = m/[m(s)-m(os)], where D(b)/D(l) denotes the specific gravity

What % of an object’s mass is above the water line if the object’s density is 0.82g/ml?
Sladkaya [172]

To develop this problem we will apply the Archimedes model. As well as the definitions of Weight based on mass and acceleration. The first in turn will be considered under the relationship of Density and Volume. From the values given we have to:

\rho_w =1 g/mL \rightarrow \text{Water Density}

\rho_o = 0.82g/mL \rightarrow \text{Object density}

Since it is in equilibrium, the weight of the object will have a reaction from the water, which will cause the sum of forces between the two objects to be zero, therefore

\sum F= 0

F_w-F_o = 0

F_w = F_o

m_w g = m_og

\rho_w V_w g = \rho_o V_o g

The value of gravity is canceled because it is a constant

\frac{V_w}{V_o} = \frac{\rho_o}{\rho_w}

\frac{V_w}{V_o} = \frac{0.82}{1}

\frac{V_w}{V_o} = 0.82

The portion of the object that is submerged corresponds to 82%, while the portion that is visible, above the water level will be 18%
