You started out by telling us that the block of paraffin has
10 cm³ of volume. When it's completely submerged, it displaces
10 cm³ of gasoline. Each cm³ of gasoline weighs 0.0069N, so
the whole 10 of them weigh (10 x 0.0069) = 0.069 N.
We notice that the block of paraffin weighs more than the gasoline
that it displaces. So there's no doubt about it ... the paraffin sinks
in gasoline.
If you were to drop it into water instead, it wouldn't sink. Each
cm³ of water weighs 0.0098 N, and 10 of those weigh 0.098N.
In water, the paraffin would settle down only until it displaced
its own weight ... 0.085 N, about 8.7 cm³ of water ... and then
it would float right there, with about 87% of it under water and
the other 13% of it above the surface.
Answer:
ELASTIC collision
kinetic energy is conservate
Explanation:
As the ball bounces to the same height, it can be stated that the impact with the floor is ELASTIC.
As the floor does not move the conservation of the moment
po = pf
-mv1 = m v2
- v1 = v2
So the speed with which it descends is equal to the speed with which it rises
Therefore the kinetic energy of the ball before and after the collision is the same
Answer:
9 cm
-36 cm
Explanation:
u = Object distance
v = Image distance
f = Focal length = 12
m = Magnification = 4
Lens equation
Object distance is 9 cm
Image distance is -36 cm (other side of object)
1,2: When simple molecular substances melt or boil, it is these weak intermolecular forces that are overcome. The covalent bonds are not broken. Relative little energy is needed to overcome the intermolecular forces, so simple molecular substances have a low melting and boiling points.
3: Water, Almost no living thing can survive without water. Water is everywhere on our planet. It is the reason we have an organic life on earth. A water molecule consists of one oxygen atom combined with two hydrogen atoms. We use water throughout day and night; in drinking, cooking, household needs, industries, and agriculture. Apart from these general uses of water, you might be amazed to know that water plays a major role in volcanic eruptions.
