The greatest mass that can hang without submerging is 2.93 kg. The provided details are as follows: sphere diameter = 20 cm, hence the radius r = 10 cm = 0.10 m. The density of the Styrofoam sphere is 300 kg/m³. The sphere's volume calculates to 4.18 * 10⁻³ m³. Mass M = Density * Volume results in (300)(4.18 * 10⁻³ m³) = 1.25 kg. The displaced water mass is computed as volume * water density, yielding 4.18 * 10⁻³ m³ * 1000 = 4.18 kg. The additional mass the sphere can hold is the difference between the two mass calculations: 4.18 kg - 1.25 kg = 2.93 kg.

serg [3582]

Answer:

x₂=2×1

Explanation:

According to the work-energy theorem, we can assume that the gravitational potential energy at the lowest point of compression is zero since the kinetic energy change is 0;

mgx-(kx)²/2 =0 where m refers to the object's mass, g indicates the acceleration due to gravity, k denotes spring constant, and x represents the spring's compression.

mgx=(kx)²/2

x=2mg/k----------------compression when the object is at rest

However, ΔK.E =-1/2mv²⇒kx²=mv² -----------where v symbolizes the object's velocity and K.E signifies kinetic energy

Thus, if kx²=mv² then

v=x *√(k/m) ----------------where v=0

<pDoubling v results in multiplying x *√(k/m) by 2, leading to x₂ being double x₁

Sav [3153]
The force that the car applies on the truck will be 6000 N in the reverse direction.

As per the information provided, the car's mass is one-fourth that of the truck

The truck exerts a force of 6000 N onto the car

We aim to determine the force that the car exerts on the truck

According to Newton's third law, every action has an equal and opposite reaction

Hence, the force from the car on the truck is 6000 N in the opposite direction

Initially, the magnetic domains within the nail were oriented in various directions before coming into contact with the bar magnet. Upon Taylor touching the nail to the bar magnet, the magnetic fields of those domains became aligned, thus transforming the nail into a temporary magnet.

Sav [3153]

The question lacks details. Here is the full question.

The accompanying image was captured with a camera capable of shooting between one and two frames per second. A series of photos was merged into this single image, meaning the vehicles depicted are actually the same car, documented at different intervals.

Assuming the camera produced 1.3 frames per second for this image and that the length of the car is approximately 5.3 meters, based on this information and the photo, how fast was the car moving?

Answer: v = 6.5 m/s

Explanation: The problem requires calculating the car's velocity. Velocity can be computed using:

v=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}

Since the camera captured 7 images of the car and its length is noted as 5.3, the car's displacement is:

Δx = 7(5.3)

Δx = 37.1 m

The camera operates at 1.3 frames per second and recorded 7 images, thus the time driven by the car is:

1.3 frames = 1 s

7 frames = Δt

Δt = 5.4 s

<pconsequently the="" car="" was="" driving="" at:="">

v=\frac{37.1}{5.4}

v = 6.87 m/s

<pthe car="" moved="" at="" an="" estimated="">velocity of 6.87 m/s.
