Answer:

7.06MN

Explanation:

length = 60m

Width = 10m

Height = 12 m

Let Fb = Force buoyant

Fb = pgV = mg

p(density) = rho

The density of water in this case = 1000

g = 9.8 m/s

Volume = lenght*width*height

= 60*10*12

= 7200m^3

So we have

(1000 * 9.8 * 7200) = mg

= 70560000

7.06 MN

A series circuit has two 10-ohm bulb is added in a series. Technician A says that the three bulbs will be dimmer than when only
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Technician  A  is right. The situation will happens even with only two bulbs in series

Explanation:

We must take into account that

1.- All electric device need its nominal voltage to operate

2.-Any and all electric device means an electric load for the source in terms of equation that means any device will implies a drop voltage of V = I*R ( I the flows current and R  the resistance of the device)

3.-Nominal voltage for bulbs are specify for houses voltages you find between fase and neutral wires for instance in Venezuela 120 (v).

4.-In a imaginary circuit of only one bulb, the nominal voltage will be applied and the bulb will operates correctly, but when you add another bulb (in series) the nominal voltage will split  between the two bulbs ( we  could find a situation such as the first bulb work properly but the second one does not). The voltage split according to Ohms law (in such way that the sum of voltage between the terminal of the first bulb plus the voltage at terminals of the second one are equal to nominal voltage.

For that reason all the bulbs are connected in parallel in wich case all of them will operate with the common voltage

The speed of sound in seawater is 1470 m/s. A dolphin sends out a click that reflects off of an
Nitella [24]

Answer: 0.204 s

Explanation:

The speed of sound V is defined as the distance traveled d in a especific time t:  

V=\frac{d}{t}  

Where:  

V=1470 m/s is the speed of sound  in seawater

t is the time the sound wave travels from the dolphin and then returns after the reflection

d=2(150 m) is twice the distance between the dolphin and the object to which the sound waves are reflected

Finding t:

t=\frac{d}{V}  

t=\frac{2(150 m)}{1470 m/s}

<u>Finally:</u>

t=0.204 s

A FBD of a rocket launching into space should include:
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Explanation:

the force of the rocket engine pushing it up,  the force of gravity pulling it down,    maybe some force of air resistance as the rocket goes fast,   hmmm    Free Body Diagrams  (FBD)  should have any and all forces on the model,  unless they are negligible . or so slight they really make little difference in the total  outcome.

Suppose two astronauts on a spacewalk are floating motionless in space, 3.0 m apart. Astronaut B tosses a 15.0 kg IMAX camera to
marta [7]

Answer:

\frac{ 112.5}{15+m_{A}}=v_{f}

(we need the mass of the astronaut A)

Explanation:

We can solve this by using the conservation law of the linear momentum P. First we need to represent every mass as a particle. Also we can simplify this system of particles by considering only the astronaut A with an initial speed v_{iA} of 0 m/s and a mass m_{A} and the IMAX camera with an initial speed v_{ic} of 7.5 m/s and a mass m_{c} of 15.0 kg.

The law of conservation says that the linear momentum P (the sum of the products between all masses and its speeds) is constant in time. The equation for this is:

P_{i}=p_{ic}+p_{iA}\\P_{i}=m_{c}v_{ic}+m_{A} v_{iA}\\P_{i}=15*7.5 + m_{A}*0\\P_{i}=112.5 \frac{kg.m}{s}

By the law of conservation we know that P_{i} =P_{f}

For P_{f} (final linear momentum) we need to treat the collision as a plastic one (the two particles stick together after the encounter).

So:

P_{i} =P_{f}=112.5\\

112.5=(m_{c}+m_{A})v_{f}\\\frac{ 112.5}{m_{c}+m_{A}}=v_{f}\\\frac{ 112.5}{15+m_{A}}=v_{f}

Effect of temperature.

"If the temperature of the substance is increased then the rate of chemical reaction is also increased because the kinetic energy is greater."

Effect of surface area.

"If the surface area is increased then the rate of reaction is increased because there will be more active sites for the reaction to occur.
