Sharks are generally negatively buoyant; the upward buoyant force is less than the weight force. This is one reason sharks tend

to swim continuously; water moving past their fins causes a lift force that keeps sharks from sinking. A 92 kgbull shark has a density of 1040 kg/m3. What lift force must the shark's fins provide if the shark is swimming in seawater? Bull sharks often swim into freshwater rivers. What lift force is required in a river?

Answer:

866.92 N

Explanation:

mass of shark, m = 92 kg

density, d = 1040 kg/m^3

Volume, V = mass / density

V = 92 / 1040 = 0.08846 kg/m^3

The lift force is the buoyant force acting on the shark is

Lift force = Volume x density of water x g

Lift force = 0.08846 x 1000 x 9.8

Lift force = 866.92 N

Thus, the lift force is  866.92 N.

Mrac [35]
<span>After entering the loop, it should use the correct list size and the loop will be affected if the remove call changes the size of the list. If lst is an Arraylist the running time of removefirsthalf is O (n^2). So when the beginning is removed the next element will move forward. If lst is a LinkedList which is a dynamic structure the running is O (n) for removefirsthalf</span>

Lizzie is pushing Alex on a scooter. Lizzie is pushing with 75 N of force to the left, and Alex is helping with 20 N to the left
nordsb [41]

Answer:

The net force on the scooter is 95 N to the left.

Explanation:

Lizzie is pushing with 75 N of force to the left, so the force is a vector with 75N of magnitude and to the left.

Alex is helping with 20 N to the left, so the force is a vector with 20 N magnitude and to the left.

When we add vectors, vectors that point in the same direction add up and vectors that point in opposite directions are subtracted.

Hence, the net force is equal to:

F=75 N + 20 N=95 N

As both forces point to the left, the net force is also to the left.

Helium (density 0.18 kg/m^3 at 0°C and 1 atm pressure) remains a gas until the extraordinarily low temperature of 4.2 K.What is
balu736 [363]

Answer:

166.6396m/sec

Explanation:

Molar mass of helium = 4\times 10^{-3}kg/mole

\gamma for helium is 1.67

The velocity of helium in sound at any temperature is given by v=\sqrt{\frac{\gamma RT}{M}}=\sqrt{\frac{1.67\times 8.314\times 8}{4\times 10^{-3}}}=166.6396m/sec

R is a constant 8.314 atm\ mol^{-1}K^{-1}

Point m is located a distance 2d from the midpoint between the two wires. find the magnitude of the magnetic field b1m created a
Tema [17]

Note: The diagram referred to in the question is attached here as a file.

Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic field is B = \frac{0.071 \mu I}{d}

Explanation:

The magnetic field can be determined by the relationship:

B = \frac{\mu I}{2\pi R}...............(1)

Were I is the current flowing through the wires

The distance R from point 1 to m is calculated using the pythagora's theorem

R = \sqrt{d^{2} + (2d)^{2}  }

R = \sqrt{5d^{2} } \\R = d\sqrt{5}

Substituting R into equation (1)

B = \frac{\mu I}{2\pi d\sqrt{5} }

B = \frac{0.071 \mu I}{d}
