Answer:

(a) 8.96

(b) 19600 dyne

(c) 19600 dyne

(d) 20 g

Explanation:

dcu = 8.96 g/cm^3, dw = 1 g/cm^3, A = 10 cm^2

Water level rises by 2 cm.

(a) The specific gravity of copper = density of copper / density of water

                                                       8.96 / 1 = 8.96

(b) According to the Archimedes's principle, the buoyant force acting on the body is equal to the weight of liquid displaced by the body.

Weight of water displaced by the copper = Area of beaker x rise in water level                          

                                                                      x density of water x gravity

                          = 10 x 2 x 1 x 980 = 19600 dyne

(c) Same as part b

(d) Let mass of copper be m.

For the equilibrium condition,

the true weight of copper = Buoyant force acting on copper

m x g =  19600

m = 19600 / 980 = 20 g

Suppose the wavelength of the light is 450 nm . how much farther is it from the dot on the screen in the center of fringe e to t
lbvjy [14]

Since you are looking at a right fringe, the answer is all the time a multiple of the wavelength for the reason that the light makes constructive intrusion. If you are looking at the center (zeroth) fringe, the difference is (450)(0) = 0. For the first maximum, the difference is 450 nm. For the second, it is 450 x 2 = 900 nm. Basically, for the nth maxima, the difference is 450n.

How many LEDs must be combined into one light source to give a total of 3.8 W of visible-light output (comparable to the light o
notka56 [123]

Answer:

This is an incomplete question. The complete question is --

An individual white LED (light-emitting diode) has an efficiency of 20% and uses 1.0 W of electric power.

How many LEDs must be combined into one light source to give a total of 3.8W of visible-light output (comparable to the light output of a 100W incandescent bulb)?

And the answer is --

19 LEDs

Explanation:

The full form of LED is Light emitting diode.

It is given that the efficiency of the LED bulb is 20 %

1 LED uses power = 1 W

So the output power of 1 LED = 0.2 W

We need to find the power required to give a 3.8 W light.

Power required for 3.8 W = Number of LEDs required  =   (total required power  /  power required for 1 LED )

                                                                                         = 3.8 / 0.2

                                                                                         = 19

Therefore, the number of LEDs required is 19.

Neutron stars consist only of neutrons and have unbelievably high densities. a typical mass and radius for a neutron star might
Tanya [424]
<span>Density is 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 Dime weighs 1.5x10^12 pounds The definition of density is simply mass per volume. So let's divide the mass of the neutron star by its volume. First, we need to determine the volume. Assuming the neutron star is a sphere, the volume will be 4/3 pi r^3, so 4/3 pi 1.9x10^3 = 4/3 pi 6.859x10^3 m^3 = 2.873x10^10 m^3 Now divide the mass by the volume 9.9x10^28 kg / 2.873x10^10 m^3 = 3.44588x10^18 kg/m^3 Since we only have 2 significant digits in our data, round to 2 significant digits, giving 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 Now to figure out how much the dime weighs, just multiply by the volume of the dime. 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 * 2.0x10^-7 m^3 = 6.8x10^11 kg And to convert from kg to lbs, multiply by 2.20462, so 6.8x10^11 kg * 2.20462 lb/kg = 1.5x10^12 lb</span>
