What is true when an object floats in water? A. When an object floats, it exceeds the volume of water available. B. When an object floats, it displaces a volume of water equal to its own volume. C. When an object floats, it does not displace its entire volume.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C. When an object floats, it does not displace its entire volume.

Explanation:

Buoyancy can be defined as an upward force which is created by the water displaced by an object.

According to Archimede's principle, it is directly proportional to the amount (weight) of water that is being displaced by an object.

Basically, the greater the amount of water an object displaces; the greater is the force of buoyancy pushing the object up. The buoyancy of an object is given by the formula;

[tex] Fb = pgV [/tex]

[tex] But, \; V = Ah [/tex]

[tex] Hence, \; Fb = pgAh [/tex]

Where;

Fb = buoyant force of a liquid acting on an object.

g = acceleration due to gravity.

p = density of the liquid.

v = volume of the liquid displaced.

h = height of liquid (water) displaced by an object.

A = surface area of the floating object.

The unit of measurement for buoyancy is Newton (N).

Additionally, the density of a fluid is directly proportional to the buoyant force acting on it i.e as the density of a liquid decreases, buoyancy decreases and vice-versa.

Furthermore, an object such as a boat, ship, ferry, canoe, etc, are able to float because the volume of water they displace weigh more than their own weight. Thus, if a boat or any physical object weighs more than the volume of water it displaces, it would sink; otherwise, it floats.

In conclusion, the true statement is that when an object floats, it does not displace its entire volume.

NASA is giving serious consideration to the concept of solar sailing. A solar sailcraft uses a large, low mass sail and the energy and momentum of sunlight for propulsion. (a) Should the sail be absorbing or reflective

Answers

Answer:

Reflective

Explanation:

The radiation pressure of the wave that totally absorbed is given by;

[tex]P_{abs}= \frac{I}{C}[/tex]

and While the radiation pressure of the wave totally reflected is given by;

[tex]P_{ref}= \frac{2I}{C}[/tex]

Now compare the two-equation you can clearly see that the pressure due to reflection is larger than absorption therefore the sail should be reflective.

Answers

Answer:

A) v_{f1} = -3.2 m / s,  B) LEFT , C) v_{f2} = -0.12 m / s,  D) LEFT

Explanation:

This is a collision exercise that can be solved using momentum conservation, for this we define a system formed by gliders, so that the forces during the collision are internal and the moment is conserved.

Let's use the subscript 1 for the lightest glider m1 = 0.160 kg and vo1 = 0.820 m / s

subscript 2 for the heaviest glider me² = 0.820 kg and vo2 = -2.27 m / s

Initial instant. Before the crash

          p₀ = m₁ v₀₁ + m₂ v₀₂

Final moment. After the crash

          p_f = m₁ v_{f1} + m₂ v_{f2}

          p₀ = p_f

          m₁ v₀₁ + m₂ v₀₂ = m₁ v_{f1} + m₂ v_{f2}

 as the shock is elastic, energy is conserved

         K₀ = K_f

         ½ m₁ v₀₁² + ½ m₂ v₀₂² = ½ m₁ [tex]v_{f1}^2[/tex] + ½ m₂ [tex]v_{f2}^2[/tex]

         m₁ (v₀₁² - v_{f1}²) = m₂ (v_{f2}² -v₀₂²)

let's make the relationship

         (a + b) (a-b) = a² -b²

         m₁ (v₀₁ + v_{f1}) (v₀₁-v+{f1}) = m₂ (v_{f2} + v₀₂) (v_{f2} -v₀₂)

let's write our two equations

         m₁ (v₀₁ -v_{f1}) = m₂ (v_(f2) - v₀₂)                                  (1)

         m₁ (v₀₁ + v_{f1}) (v₀₁-v_{f1}) = m₂ (v_{f2} + v₀₂) (v_{f2} -v₀₂)

we solve

         v₀₁ + v_{f2} = v_{f2} + v₀₂

we substitute in equation 1 and obtain

         M = m₁ + m₂

         [tex]v_{f1} = \frac{m_1-m_2}{M} v_o_1 + 2 \frac{m_2}{M} v_f_2[/tex]

         [tex]v_f_2 = \frac{2m_1}{M} v_o_1 + \frac{m_2-m_1}{M} v_o_2[/tex]vf2 = 2m1 / mm vo1 + m2-m1 / mm vo2

we calculate the values

         m₁ + m₂ = 0.160 +0.3000 = 0.46 kg

         v_{f1} = [tex]\frac{ 0.160 -0.300} {0.460} \ 0.820 + \frac{2 \ 0300}{0.460} \ (-2.27)[/tex]

         v_{f1} = -0,250 - 2,961

          v_{f1} = - 3,211 m / s

 

         v_{f2} = [tex]\frac{2 \ 0.160}{0.460} \ 0.820 + \frac{0.300 - 0.160}{0.460 } \ (-2.27)[/tex]

         v_{f2} = 0.570 - 0.6909

         v_{f2} = -0.12 m / s

now we can answer the different questions

A) v_{f1} = -3.2 m / s

B) the negative sign indicates that it moves to the left

C) v_{f2} = -0.12 m / s

D) the negative sign indicates that it moves to the LEFT

A particle of mass 1.2 mg is projected vertically upward from the ground with a velocity of 1.62 x 10 cm/h. Use the above information to answer the following four questions: 7. The kinetic energy of the particle at time t = 0 s is A. 1.215 x 10-3 J B. 2.430 J C. 1215 J D. 9.72 x 106 J E. OJ (2)​

Answers

Answer:

K = 0 J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the particle, m = 1.2 mg

The speed of the particle, [tex]v=1.62\times 10\ cm/h[/tex]

We need to find the kinetic energy of the particle at time t = 0 s.

At t = 0 s, the particle is at rest, v = 0

So,

[tex]K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]

If v = 0,

[tex]K=0\ J[/tex]

So, the kinetic energy of the particle at time t = 0 s is 0 J.

Two projectiles A and B are fired simultaneously from a level, horizontal surface. The projectiles are initially 62.2 m apart. Projectile A is

it takes one projectile to be directly above the other?​

Answers

Let the point where A is launched act as the origin, so that the horizontal positions at time t of the respective projectiles are

• A : x = (19.5 m/s) cos(30°) t

• B : x = 62.2 m + (19.5 m/s) cos(60°) t

These positions are the same at the moment one projectile is directly above the other, which happens for time t such that

(19.5 m/s) cos(30°) t = 62.2 m + (19.5 m/s) cos(60°) t

Solve for t :

(19.5 m/s) (cos(30°) - cos(60°)) t = 62.2 m

t = (62.2 m) / ((19.5 m/s) (cos(30°) - cos(60°))

What is the effect on range and maximum height of a projectile as the launch height, launch speed, and launch angle are increased?

Answers

Answer:

The highest point in the trajectory occurs at the midpoint of the path. This highest point increases as the angle increases. At a 75° launch angle, the maximum height is approximately 76 meters. However, a further increase in launch angle beyond this 75° angle will increase the peak height even more.

[tex]u = 0\\\\v = 2.35\ \frac{m}{sec}\\\\d = 5.0 \ m\\\\[/tex]

Using formula:

[tex]v^2 = u^2 + 2 \times a \times d\\\\2.35^2 = 0^2 + 2 \times a \times 5\\\\a = \frac{2.35^2}{10} \\\\[/tex]

   [tex]= 0.55 \ \frac{m}{sec^2}\\\\[/tex]

[tex]F_{net} = m \times a\\\\F_{net} = 55 \times 0.55 = 30.25\ N\\\\[/tex]

Calculating the Work by net force

[tex]W = F_{net}\times d\\\\W = 30.25 \times 5 = 151.25 \ J\\\\[/tex]

The above work is converted into thermal energy.

Now,

[tex]F_{net} = F_p - F_f\\\\F_p = 140 \ N\\\\F_f = u_k\times m \times g = u_k \times 55 \times 9.81\\\\F_f = 539.55 \times u_k\\\\30.25 = 140 - u_k \times 55 \times 9.81\\\\u_k = \frac{(140 - 30.25)}{(55\times 9.81)}\\\\uk = 0.203 = \text{Coefficient of friction}\\\\W_f = -F_f \times d\\\\W_f = -0.203 \times 55 \times 9.81 \times 5\\\\Work\ done\ by\ friction = -547.64 \ J[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

560.54 Ω

Explanation:

Applying,

V = IR'............... Equation 1

Where V = Voltage of the battery, I = currrent, R' = Total resistance of the resistors

make R' the subject of the equation

R' = V/I............ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: V = 5 V, I = 2.23 mA = 2.23×10⁻³ A

Substitute these values into equation 2

R' = 5/(2.23×10⁻³ )

R' = 2242.15 Ω

Since the fours resistor are connected in series and they are equal,

Therefore the values of each resistor is

R = R'/4

R = 2242.15/4

R = 560.54 Ω

Required:
What is the total work performed on the toolbox?

Answers

If both forces are measured in Newtons, then the net force is

F = (18, 7, -12) N + (16, -10, 16) N = (34, -3, 4) N

The toolbox undergoes a displacement (i.e. change in position) in the direction of the vector

d = (17, 14, -1) m - (15, 14, -8) m = (2, 0, -9) m

The total work done by the astronauts on the toolbox is then

F • d = (34, -3, 4) N • (2, 0, -9) m = (68 + 0 - 36) N•m = 32 J

The work done by the two astronauts is equal to 96 J.

What is work done?

work done?Work done is defined as the product of force applied and the distance moved by the force.

Work done = Force × Distance

The forces applied = 18+16 N, 7+ -10 N, and -12 + 16N

Forces = 34 N, -3 N, and 4N

Distances = (17 - 15, 14 - 14, -1 - - 8) m

Distances = 2, 0, 7

Work done = 34 × 2 + -3 × 0 + 4 × 7

Work done = 96 J

Therefore, the work done by the two astronauts is equal to 96 J.
