Answer: 0.24g/ml

Explanation:

Given that:

Volume of water displaced = 23.5 ml

Mass of cork = 5.7 g

Density of the cork = ?

Recall that density is obtained by dividing the mass of a substance by the volume of water displaced.

i.e Density = Mass/volume

Density = 5.7g /23.5ml

Density = 0.24g/ml

Thus, the density of the piece of cork is 0.24g/ml

A projectile of mass M, initially at rest, is acted upon by a net force [including gravity] that increases quadratically with ti
Elden [556K]

Answer:

maximum height is y = b²/18g √ (12L/b)³

Explanation:

Let's analyze the situation first we have a projectile subjected to an acceleration depends on time, so we must use the definition of acceleration to find the speed when it is at distance L, then we will use the projectile launch equations

Acceleration dependent on t

     a = dv / dt

     dv = adt

     ∫dv =∫ (b t²) dt

     v = b t³ / 3

The initial speed is zero for zero time

 

we use the definition of speed

     v = dy / dt

     dy = v dt

     ∫dy = ∫b t³ / 3 dt

     y = b/3   t⁴ / 4

     y = b/12 t⁴

we evaluate from the initial point where the height is zero for the zero time

Let's calculate the time to travel the length (y = L) of the canyon

     t = (12 y / b) ¼

     t = (12 L / b) ¼

Taking the time, we can calculate the projectile's output speed

     v = b/3  ( (12 L / b)^{3/4}

 

This is the speed of the body, which is the initial speed for the projectile launch movement. Let's calculate the highest point where the zero speed

      Vy² = v₀² - 2 g y

       0 = Vo² - 2 g y

      2 g y = v₀²

      y =  v₀²/ 2g

      y = 1/2g    [b/3 (12L / b^{3/4}) ] 2

      y = 1 / 2g [b²/9  (12L/b)^{3/2}]

      y = b²/18g √ (12L/b)³

A dolphin swims due east for 1.90 km, then swims 7.20 km in the direction south of west. What are the magnitude and direction of
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

magnitude = 7.446 km, direction = 75.22° north of east

Explanation:

From the questions,

To get the the magnitude of the resultant vector we use Pythagoras theorem

a² = b²+c²

From the diagram,

y² = 1.9²+7.2²

y² = 55.45

y = √(55.45)

y = 7.446 km.

The direction of the dolphin is given as,

θ = tan⁻¹(7.2/1.9)

θ = tan⁻¹(3.7895)

θ = 75.22° north of east

Hence the magnitude of the resultant vector = 7.446 km, and it direction is 75.22° north of east

Carla sees an equation that models a nuclear change.
victus00 [196]

Answer:

C. nuclear fusion, because the equation shows two hydrogen nuclei combining to form a helium nucleus

Explanation:

Nuclear reaction can either be; fission or fusion. Nuclear fission is the process by which a massive nucleus breaks in to two smaller nuclei of almost the same size with the release of high amount of energy. Nuclear fusion is the process by which two nuclei reacts, joins, to produce a massive nucleus (compared to the masses of the reacting elements) with the release of high amount of energy.

From the given equation, two hydrogen isotopes; deuterium and tritium reacts with each other to produce helium nucleus and a neutron.

This reaction is a nuclear fusion which produces a massive nuclei.
