Describe all of the forces acting on the ice cream in the root beer float. Relate these forces to the fact that the ice cream is

floating.

The root beer exerts a force on all sides of the ice cream. These forces are all equal and cancel each other out. Gravity pushes downward on the ice cream. This can also be called the weight of the ice cream. Buoyant force pushes the ice cream upward. The ice cream floats because the buoyant force is greater than the weight of the ice cream.

Two lasers, one red (with wavelength 633.0 nm) and the other green (with wavelength 532.0 nm), are mounted behind a 0.150-mm sli

Orlov [11]

Answer:

a.3.20m

b.0.45cm

Explanation:

a. Equation for minima is defined as: $sin \theta=\frac{m\lambda}{\alpha}$

Given $m=3$ , $\lambda=6.33\times 10^-^7$ and $\alpha=0.00015$ :

#Substitute our variable values in the minima equation to obtain $\theta$ :

$\theta=sin^-^1 (\frac{3\times 6.33\times 10^-^7}{0.00015})\\\\\theta=0.01266rad$

#draw a triangle to find the relationship between $\theta, y \$ and $L$ .

$tan(\theta)=y/L$ #where $y=4.05cm$

$L=y/tan(\theta)=3.20$

Hence the screen is 3.20m from the split.

b. To find the closest minima for green(the fourth min will give you the smallest distance)

#Like with a above, the minima equation will be defined as:

$sin \theta=\frac{m\lambda}{\alpha}$ , where $m=4$ given that it's the minima with the smallest distance.

$sin \theta=\frac{4\lambda}{\alpha}\\\theta=sin^-^1 (\frac{4\times 6.33\times 10^-^7}{0.00015})\\\\\theta=0.01688rad$

#we then use $tan(\theta)=y/L$ to calculate $L$ =4.5cm

Then from the equation subtract $y_3$ from $y$ :

$4.50cm-4.05cm=0.45cm$

Hence, the distance $\bigtriangleup y$ is 0.45cm

Which of the following statements is FALSE?

Levart [38]

A thrust fault is a reverse fault with an extremely high dip (close to 90°). This is the false statement.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Faults are the fracture or fracture zone occurring on the rocks. These fractures can travel through the rocks leading to massive destruction. So, depending upon the direction of their travel, the faults can be classified as normal, reverse and strike slip fault. Also, the angle of dip along the fault is one of the important criteria for determining the type of faults.

There is dip-slip fault which has its movement along the vertical fault plane while the strike slip fault will be in horizontal direction. Similarly, an oblique fault will be acting in both vertical and the horizontal direction. So, the fourth statement related to thrust fault is false as in reverse fault or thrust fault the dip will be shallow and not high.

A measuring cylinder contains 60cm3 of oil at 0 celcius. When a piece of ice was roped into the cylinder it sank completely in o

mariarad [96]

Answer:

$S_i=\frac{9}{10} =0.9$

Explanation:

Given:

volume of oil in the cylinder, $V_o=60\ cm^2$

volume of the oil level when the ice is immersed, $V=90\ cm^3$

the volume level of oil when the ice melted, $V'=87\ cm^3$

<u>Now, therefore the volume of ice:</u>

$V_i=V-V_o$

$V_i=90-60$

$V_i=30\ cm^3$

<u>Now the volume of water:</u>

$V_w=V'-V_o$

$V_w=87-60$

$V_w=27\ cm^3$

As we know that the relative density is the ratio of density of the substance to the density of water.

<u>So, the relative density of ice:</u>

$S_i=\frac{\rho_i}{\rho_w}$ .....................(1)

as we know that density is given as:

$\rm \rho=\frac{mass}{volume}$

now eq. (1)

$S_i=\frac{m}{V_{i}}\div \frac{m}{V_w}$

where, m = mass of the water or the ice which remains constant in any phase

$S_i=\frac{V_w}{V_i}$

$S_i=\frac{27}{30}$

$S_i=\frac{9}{10} =0.9$
