Answer:

0.96 gcm¯³

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of empty beaker = 103 g

Mass of beaker + water = 361 g

Mass of beaker + oil = 351 g

Density of water = 1 gcm¯³

Density of cooking oil =?

Next, we shall determine the mass of water. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of empty beaker = 103 g

Mass of beaker + water = 361 g

Mass of water =?

Mass of water = (Mass of beaker + water) – (Mass of empty beaker)

Mass of water = 361 – 103

Mass of water = 258 g

Next, we shall determine the volume of the beaker. This can be obtained by calculating the volume of water in the beaker.

Density of water = 1 gcm¯³

Mass of water = 258 g

Volume of water =?

Density = mass /volume

1 = 258 / volume

Cross multiply

1 × volume = 258

Volume of water = 258 cm³

Thus the volume of the beaker is 258 cm³.

Next, we shall determine the mass of the cooking oil. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of empty beaker = 103 g

Mass of beaker + oil = 351 g

Mass of cooking oil =?

Mass of cooking oil = (Mass of beaker + oil) – (Mass of empty beaker)

Mass of cooking oil = 351 – 103

Mass of cooking oil = 248 g

Finally, we shall determine the density of the cooking oil. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of cooking oil = 248 g

Volume of the beaker = 258 cm³

Density of cooking oil =?

Density = mass / volume

Density = 248 / 258

Density of cooking oil = 0.96 gcm¯³

Two forces F1 and F2 act on a 5.00 kg object. Taking F1=20.0N and F2=15.00N, find the acceleration of the object for the configu

Anit [1.1K]

A) mass m with F1 acting in the positive x direction and F2 acting perpendicular in the positive y direction

m = 5.00 kg
F1=20.0N ... x direction
F2=15.00N ... y direction

Net force ^2 = F1^2 + F2^2 = (20N)^2 + (15n)^2 = 625N^2 =>

Net force = √625 = 25N

F = m*a => a = F/m = 25.0 N /5.00 kg = 5 m/s^2

Answer: 5.00 m/s^2

b) mass m with F1 acting in the positive x direction and F2 acting on the object at 60 degrees above the horizontal. 

m = 5.00 kg
F1=20.0N ... x direction
F2=15.00N ... 60 degress above x direction

Components of F2

F2,x = F2*cos(60) = 15N / 2 = 7.5N

F2, y = F2*sin(60) = 15N* 0.866 = 12.99 N ≈ 13 N

Total force in x = F1 + F2,x = 20.0 N + 7.5 N = 27.5 N

Total force in y = F2,y = 13.0 N

Net force^2 = (27.5N)^2 + (13.0N)^2 = 925.25 N^2 = Net force = √(925.25N^2) =

= 30.42N

a = F /m = 30.42 N / 5.00 kg = 6.08 m/s^2

Answer: 6.08 m/s^2

A ball rolls 6.0 meters as its speed changes from 15 meters per second to 10 meters per second. What is the average speed of the

antoniya [11.8K]

Initial speed, u = 15 m/s
Final speed, v = 10 m/s
Distance traveled, s = 6.0 m

The acceleration, a, is determined from
u² + 2as = v²
(15 m/s)² + 2*(a m/s²)*(6.0 m) = (10 m/s)²
225 + 12a = 100
12a = -125
a = -10.4167 m/s²

The time, t, for the velocity to change from 15 m/s to 10 m/s is given by
(10 m/s) = (15 m/s) - (10.4167 m/s²)*(t s)
10 = 15 - 10.4167t
t = 0.48 s

The average speed is
(6.0 m)/(0.48 s) = 12.5 m/s

Answer: 12.5 m/s

An air-track glider undergoes a perfectly inelastic collision with an identical glider that is initially at rest. what fraction

DiKsa [7]

Refer to the diagram shown below.

The initial KE (kinetic energy) of the system is
KE₁ = (1/2)mu²

After an inelastic collision, the two masses stick together.
Conservation of momentum requires that
m*u = 2m*v
Therefore
v = u/2

The final KE is
KE₂ = (1/2)(2m)v²
= m(u/2)²
= (1/4)mu²
= (1/2) KE₁

The loss in KE is
KE₁ - KE₂ = (1/2) KE₁.

Conservation of energy requires that the loss in KE be accounted for as thermal energy.

Answer: 1/2

Anna pushes a box with a force of 8.00 newtons. She generates a power of 3.00 watts. How much time does it take for Anna to move

QveST [7]

Power is the energy in a system per time. It will have units of Watts which is equal to joules per second. It can be expressed as:

P = E / t

where E = Force x distance

P = Fd / t
t = Fd / P
t = 8 (9.72) / 3.0
t = 25.92 s
