What is the density of the block? Assume that the block is 40.0% submerged.First Sketches says block weigh 50g
Express the density numerically in grams per cubic centimeter.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:
There are forces are acting on the block: 1. Fs = upward force from scale (up = + Fs) 2. W = downward weight force (down = - W) 3. Fb = upward buoyancy force (up = + Fb) 
Since the block is at rest, (net force = 0), the force equation is: 
Fs + Fb - W = 0 ~(eq1) 
Substituting Fs, Fb and W into ~(eq1): ==> {m (on scale) x g} + {ρ x V x g} - (m (block) x g} = 0 
Dividing both sides of equation by g: m (on scale) + (ρ x V) - m (block) = 0 ~(eq2) 
Given: V = volume of water displaced = 40% volume of the block = 0.40 x V (block) 
Substituting 0.40 x V (block) into ~(eq2): m (on scale) + (ρ x 0.40 x V (block)) - m (block) = 0 ~(eq3) where, m (on scale) = 5.6 g ρ = density of water at 20ºC = 0.99821 g/cm^3 m (block) = 50 g 
Substituting m (on scale), ρ and m (block) into ~(eq3): 5.6 g + (0.99821 g/cm^3 x 0.40 x V (block)) - 50 g = 0 ~(eq4) 
Simplifying ~(eq4) and solving for V (block): ==> 5.6 g + 0.399284 g/cm^3 x V (block) - 50 g = 0 ==> 0.399284 g/cm^3 x V (block) - 44.4 g = 0 ==> 0.399284 g/cm^3 x V (block) = 44.4 g ==> V (block) = 44.4 g / (0.399284 g/cm^3) ==> V (block) = 111.199 cm^3 
ρ (block) = density of block = m (block) / V (block) = 50 g / 111.199 cm^3 = 0.449644 g / cm^3

What could you do to change the volume of a gas?

Answers

People are going to tell you about heating or cooling the gas, but
there's only one way to change the volume of a gas:  Put it into a
different container !

A gas always expands to fill whatever you keep it in ... doesn't matter
how warm or cold it is.  So the only way to make it change its volume
is to put it into a larger or smaller jar.
Heat it up to make it expand, or cool it down to make it contract. When you heat a gas, the particles of the gas get farther apart, therefore making the gas expand. The opposite happens when you make it colder.

Can someone explain this please?

Answer:

a= kinetic energy vs. different masses at same speed, b= kinetic energy vs. same masses at different speeds

Explanation:

graphs are looking at speed so masses don't matter as much. same speed the whole time will equal same kinetic energy the whole time.

HELP!!! In the "Monster study," what did psychologists tell the group of orphans who did not suffer from stuttering?

A.

They were told that they weren’t really stutterers.

B.

They were told that they had very severe cases of stuttering.

C.

They were told that stuttering could be overcome with practice.

D.

They were told that their parents were responsible for their stuttering.

B. They were told that they had very severe cases of stuttering.

The Monster Study was conducted by Dr. Wendell Johnson to learn more about why children developed a stutter and to see if stuttering was a result of learned behavior. However, there are several ethical problems with the the Monster study.

In this study, psychologists tell the group of orphans who did not suffer from stuttering that they had very severe cases of stuttering.

Answer:

They were told that they had very severe cases of stuttering.

Explanation:

The monster study conducted in 1939 was a certain stuttering experiment that was done by Wendell Johnson on 22 Orphan at the University of Iowa, United States. Eleven of the children got positive speech therapy while the other half was seen to have negative speech therapy which belittled them for their speech imperfections.  

The experiment was called monster because many people were horrified that such experiments could be done on children who were orphans.  

How much force is needed to stop a 90-kg soccer player if he decelerates at 15 m/s^2?A. 15 N
B. 6 N
C. 135 N
D. 1,350 N

Answers

We have: F = m×a
Here, m = 90 Kg
a = 15 m/s²

Substitute their values into the expression:
F = 90 × 15
F = 1350 N

In short, Your Answer would be Option D

Hope this helps!

How much force is needed to accelerate a 68 kilogram skier at a rate of 1.2m/sec

Answers


Let's use Newton's 2nd law of motion:

                                     Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                                     Force = (68 kg) x (1.2 m/s²) =  81.6 newtons .

f=m*a

68*1.2=81.6

f=81.6

To begin a dive, a diver jumps into the air and then lands on the diving board, causing it to bend. What type of energy conversions occur as the board springs back and propels the diver up into the air?

Answers

As the board springs back, the energy from the person jumping up onto the board is converted into potential energy. 
As the diver goes up into the air, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy.
