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

A motorist inflates the tires of her car to a pressure of 180 kPa on a day when the temperature is -8.0° C. When she arrives at

GuDViN [60]

Apply Gay-Lussac's law:

P/T = const.

P = pressure, T = temperature, the quotient of P/T must stay constant.

Initial P and T values:

P = 180kPa, T = -8.0°C = 265.15K

Final P and T values:

P = 245kPa, T = ?

Set the initial and final P/T values equal to each other and solve for the final T:

180/265.15 = 245/T

T = 361K

A fisherman is watching water waves ripple past his boat. How could he determine the wavelength of the water waves?

natta225 [31]

Wavelength can be calculated using the following formula: wavelength = wave velocity/frequency. Wavelength usually is expressed in units of meters.

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

0.3677181864 m

Explanation:

u = Velocity = 1.5 m/s

$\theta$ = Angle = 20°

y = -20 cm

Velocity components

$u_x=ucos\theta\\\Rightarrow u_x=1.5cos20\\\Rightarrow u_x=1.40953\ m/s$

$u_y=usin\theta\\\Rightarrow u_y=1.5sin20\\\Rightarrow u_y=0.51303\ m/s$

Acceleration components

$a_x=0$

$a_y=-9.81\ m/s^2$

$y=u_yt+\dfrac{1}{2}a_yt^2\\\Rightarrow -0.2=0.51303\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times -9.81t^2\\\Rightarrow 4.905t^2-0.51303t-0.2=0$

$t=\frac{-\left(-0.51303\right)+\sqrt{\left(-0.51303\right)^2-4\cdot \:4.905\left(-0.2\right)}}{2\cdot \:4.905}, \frac{-\left(-0.51303\right)-\sqrt{\left(-0.51303\right)^2-4\cdot \:4.905\left(-0.2\right)}}{2\cdot \:4.905}\\\Rightarrow t=0.26088, -0.15629$

Time taken is 0.26088 seconds

$x=u_xt+\dfrac{1}{2}a_xt^2\\\Rightarrow x=1.40953\times 0.26088\\\Rightarrow x=0.3677181864\ m$

The distance the beetle travels on the ground is 0.3677181864 m
