Answer:

2836.36 kg/m³

Explanation:

Applying,

Densty of granite(D')/Density of water(D) = weight of granite(W')/weight of water displaced(W)

D'/D = W'/W................... Equation 1

Make D' the subject of the equation

D' = W'D/W............... Equation 2.

From the question,

Given: W' = mg = 9.8(15.6/1000) = 0.15288 N, W = 9.8(5.5/1000) = 0.0539 N, Constant: D = 1000 kg/m³

Substitute these values into equation 2

D' = 1000(0.15288)/0.0539

D' = 2836.36 kg/m³

A 15.0 kg load of bricks hangs from one end of a rope that passes over a small, frictionles pulley. A 28.0 kg counterweight is s
Talja [164]

Answer:

A) The free body diagrams for both the load of bricks and the counterweight are attached.

B) a = 2.96 m/s²

Explanation:

A)

The free body diagrams for both the load of bricks and the counterweight are attached.

B)

The acceleration of upward acceleration of the load of bricks is given by the following formula:

a = g(m₁ - m₂)/(m₁ + m₂)

where,

a = upward acceleration of load of bricks = ?

g = 9.8 m/s²

m₁ = heavier mass = mass of counterweight = 28 kg

m₂ = lighter mass = mass of load of bricks = 15 kg

Therefore, using these values in equation, we get:

a = (9.8 m/s²)(28 kg - 15 kg)/(28 kg + 15 kg)

<u>a = 2.96 m/s²</u>

cicadas produce a sound that has a frequency of 123 Hz. what is the wavelength of this sound in the air? the speed of sound in a
mojhsa [17]

Answer: 2.72 metres

Explanation:

Given that:

frequency of sound F = 123 Hz. wavelength of sound in the air = ?

speed of sound in air V = 334 m/s

Recall that wavelength is the distance covered by the wave after one complete cycle. It is measured in metres, and represented by the symbol λ.

So, apply V = F λ

λ = V /F

λ = 334m/s / 123Hz

λ = 2.72m

Thus, the wavelength of this sound in the air is 2.72 metres

The Orion nebula is one of the brightest diffuse nebulae in the sky (look for it in the winter, just below the three bright star
Oxana [17]

Answer:

T=183.21K

Explanation:

We have to take into account that the system is a ideal gas. Hence, we have the expression

PV=nRT

where P is the pressure, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, T is the temperature and R is the ideal gas constant.

Thus, it is necessary to calculate n and V

V is the volume of a sphere

V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3=\frac{4}{3}\pi (5.9*10^{15}m)^3=8.602*10^{47}m^3

V=8.86*10^{50}L

and for n

n=\frac{(4000M_s)/(2*mH)}{6.022*10^{23}mol^{-1}}=3.95*10^{36}mol

Hence, we have (1 Pa = 9.85*10^{-9}atm)

T=\frac{PV}{nR}=\frac{(6.8*10^{-9}*9.85*10^{-6}atm)(8.86*10^{50}L)}{(0.0820\frac{atm*L}{mol*K})(3.95*10^{36}mol)}\\\\T=183.21K

hope this helps!!

Two wires are used to suspend a sign that weighs 500 N. The two wires make an angle of 100° between each other. If each wire is
vaieri [72.5K]
1) draw a diagram.
2) label diagram. (split the 100 degrees into 50, (which is right down the middle)  to make a right angle triangle.)
3) since its a free body diagram, the forces known must be labelled. (force of gravity). this shows that the straight vertical line of the right angle triangle is Fg (force gravity). label it.
4) use trigonometry. rearrange the equation to solve for what needs to be known.
 
angles known: 50 (split 100 in half to make a right angle triangle), 90 (since its right angle), and 40 (180-90-50 = 40)

sides known: vertical lined up with the 90 degree angle. Fg. --> fg=mg=500N x 9.81m/s^2 = 4905N

use formula: sin or cos 

i used sin. sin(40) = 4905 / ?
- times '?' on both sides. :  sin(40) x '?' = 4905
-divide both sides by sin(40):  '?' = 4905/ sin(40)
--> Solve.
