g A 4 cm diameter "bobber" with a mass of 3 grams floats on a pond. A thin, light fishing line is tied to the bottom of the bobb

er, and from the bottom hangs a 10 gram lead weight. The density of lead is 11.3 g/cm3. What fraction of the bobber's volume is submerged, as a percent of the total volume

Answer:

Explanation:

total weight acting downwards

= 3g + 10g

13 g

volume of lead = 10 / 11.3 = .885 cm³

Let the volume of bobber submerged in water be v in floating position . buoyant force on bobber  = v x 1 x g

Buoyant force on lead =  .885 x 1 x g

total buoyant force = vg + .885 g

For floating

vg + .885 g  = 13 g

v = 12.115 cm³

total volume of bobber

= 4/3 x 3.14 x 2³

= 33.5 cm³

fraction of volume submerged

= 12.115  / 33.5

= .36  

= 36 %

A proton (1.6726 ? 10-27 kg) and a neutron (1.6749 ? 10-27 kg) at rest combine to form a deuteron, the nucleus of deuterium or "
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The mass of the deuteron = mass of the proton + mass of the neutron + mass equivalent of the energy of 2.2 Mev evolved.

I amu = 931 Mev

2.2 Mev = 2.2 / 931 amu

= ( 2.2 / 931 )x 1.6726 x 10⁻²⁷

= .00395 x 10⁻²⁷

The mass of the deuteron  =( 1.6726 + 1.6749 +  .00395)x 10⁻²⁷ kg

= 3.35145 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

b ) Momentum of gamma ray

= h / λ ( h is plank's constant and λ is wavelength of gamma ray )

= hυ / υλ       (  υ is frequency of gamma ray )

= E / c  ( E is energy of photon and c is velocity o light )

= 2.2 x 10⁶ x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹  J / 3 x 10⁸

= 1.173 x 10⁻²¹ Kg m /s

This will be the momentum of deuteron also

Kinetic energy

= p² / 2m ( p is momentum and m is mass of deuteron )

= ( 1.173 x 10⁻²¹ )² / ( 2 x 3.35145 x 10⁻²⁷)

= 1.376 x ⁻¹⁵ J

Energy of gamma ray

= 2.2 x 10⁶ x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹  J

= 3.52 x 10⁻¹³ J

So kinetic energy of deuteron is smaller than energy of gamma ray photon .

A helicopter flies 250 km on a straight path in a direction 60° south of east. The east component of the helicopter’s displaceme
GaryK [48]

Given that,

Distance in south-west direction = 250 km

Projected angle to east = 60°

East component = ?

since,

cos ∅ = base/hypotenuse

base= hyp * cos ∅

East component = 250 * cos 60°

East component = 125 km

A certain alarm clock ticks four times each second, with each tick representing half a period. The balance wheel consists of a t
Semenov [28]

Answer:

a. I=2.77x10^{-8} kg*m^2

b. K=4.37 x10^{-6} N*m

Explanation:

The inertia can be find using

a.

I = m*r^2

m = 0.95 g * \frac{1 kg}{1000g}=9.5x10^{-4} kg

r=0.54 cm * \frac{1m}{100cm} =5.4x10^{-3}m

I = 9.5x10^{-4}kg*(5.4x10^{-3}m)^2

I=2.77x10^{-8} kg*m^2

now to find the torsion constant can use knowing the period of the balance

b.

T=0.5 s

T=2\pi *\sqrt{\frac{I}{K}}

Solve to K'

K = \frac{4\pi^2* I}{T^2}=\frac{4\pi^2*2.7702 kg*m^2}{(0.5s)^2}

K=4.37 x10^{-6} N*m

1) What is the highest atomic number element a red dwarf star can produce in its core? a. Carbon b. Oxygen c. Helium d. Iron
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

1) c. Helium

2) Iron

3) False.

Explanation:

1. Red dwarf is the smallest and the coolest star on the sequence. These are common stars in the milky way. Red dwarfs contains metals and the elements with higher atomic number. It is found that Helium is produced in red dwarf stars.

2. Iron is the highest atomic number element that is produced in cores of largest stars. The highest mass stars can make all elements up to iron, which is the heaviest element they can produce.

3. The end of stars life is dependent on the mass they are born with. It is not necessary that all red dwarf stars will become white dwarf stars faster than sun like star.

A box slides down a frictionless plane inclined at an angle θ ¸ above the horizontal. The gravitational force on the box is dire
DedPeter [7]
<h2>Answer: at an angle \theta below the inclined plane. </h2>

If we draw the <u>Free Body Diagram</u> for this situation (figure attached), taking into account only the gravity force in this case, we will see the weight W of the block, which is directly proportional to the gravity acceleration g:  

W=m.g

This force is directed vertically at an angle \theta below the inclined plane, this means it has an X-component and a Y-component:

W=W_{X}+W_{Y}

W_{X}=m.g.cos(\theta)

W_{Y}=m.g.sin(\theta)

Therefore the correct option is c
