Answer: 7022.2kg/m³, yes, I was cheated

Explanation:

Density of an object is defined as the ratio of the mass of the object to its volume. Mathematically;

Density = Mass/Volume

Note that the unit of both mass and volume must be standard unit.

Given mass = 0.0158kg

Dimension of the metal = 5mm×15mm×30mm

Note that 1mm = 0.001m

The volume of the metal will be

0.005×0.015×0.03

= 0.00000225m³

Density = 0.0158/0.00000225

Average density of the metal = 7022.2kg/m³

Since the standard density of Gold is 19,320kg/m³ and is higher than the density prescribed for me, it shows the I was cheated.

An object can be broken up by a planet's gravity once it passes the _______. The Jovian planets are composed primarily of ______
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:1. Roche limit

2.hydrogen

3.atmosphere

4.mercury

5.venus

6.when an object passes the Roche limit, the strength of gravity on the object increases. If the density of the planet is higher, then the object can break up farther away from the planet. If the density is lower, then the Roche limit is located closer to the planet

7.Farther our in the solar system, beyond the frost line, hydrogen was at a low enough temperature that it could condense. This allowed hydrogen to accumulate under gravity, eventually forming the Jovian planets

You are piloting a small airplane in which you want to reach a destination that is 750 km due north of your starting location. O
alexira [117]

Answer:

v_wind = 101.46 km / h   ,  θ = 61.8

Explanation:

This is a velocity composition exercise.

Let's do the problem in parts. Let's start by knowing the speed of the plane without air.

           v = d / t

           v = 750 / 3.14

           v = 238.85 km / h

This is the speed of the plane relative to the Earth and it does not change.

In the second part, when there is wind, the travel time is greater than when there is no wind, therefore the wind delays the plane. To be more general, suppose that the wind has two components vₓ and v_{y}

Let's use trigonometry to find the components of the plane's speed

          cos θ = v_N / v

          sin θ  = v_W / v

          v_N = v cos θ

          v_W = v sin θ

           

let's calculate

          V _N = 238.85 cos 22 = 221.46 km / h

           v_W = -238.85 sin 22 = -89.47

the negative sign is because the plane is going west and the positive sign is the east direction.

As it indicates that the destination of the avine is towards the north, the x component of the wind must be

              vₓ - v_W = 0

              vₓ = v-w

              vₓ = 89.47 km / h

in the direction to the East.

Now let's analyze the component of the wind in the Nort-South direction,

Indicate the travel time, let's calculate the speed that the component must have the speed of the plane

             v_total = d / t

             v_total = 750 / 4.32

             v_total = 173.61 km / h

This is the final speed of the plane, which can be written

              v_total = v_n - vy

               vy = v_n - v_total

               vy = 221.46 - 173.61

               vy = 47.85 km

this component is directed towards the south

Let's use the Pythagorean Theorem, to find the magnitude

             v_wind² = vₓ² + vy²

             v_wind = √ (89.47² + 47.85²)

             v_wind = 101.46 km / h

the address will then be found using trigonometry

             θ = Vy / vx

             θ = tan⁻¹ (vy / vx)

             θ = tan⁻¹1 (47.85 / 89.47)

             θ = 28.14

Therefore, the magnitude of the wind speed is 101.5 km / h and its direction is 28º south of the East, to give this value

                  90- θtea = 90- 28.2

                  θ = 61.8

East of South

The boom hoisting sheave must have pitch diameters of no less than _______times the nominal diameter of the rope used.
alexira [117]

Answer:

18 times

Explanation:

According to the security purposes which is set under the rules and regulation OSHA, which describes all the rights to the worker.

In the boom hoist receiving system all the sheaves which are used should have a pitch diameter of rope not less than 18 times the diameter of the nominal rope which is used.

You run due east at a constant speed of 3.00 m/s for a distance of 120.0 m and then continue running east at a constant speed of
Leni [432]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Speed while running towards east is v_1=3\ m/s

Distance traveled in east direction x_1=120\ m

For Another interval you  run with velocity

v_2=5\ m/s

x_2=240\ m

Total displacement=x_1+x_2

=120+120=240\ m

Time for first interval

t_1=\frac{x_1}{v_1}=\frac{120}{3}

t_1=\frac{120}{3}=40\ s

Time for second interval

t_2=\frac{x_2}{v_2}=\frac{120}{5}=24\ s

total time t=t_1+t_2

t=40+24=64\ s

average velocity v_{avg}=\frac{x_1+x_2}{t}

v_{avg}=\frac{240}{64}=3.75\ m/s

Therefore average velocity is less than 4 m/s
