A Styrofoam slab has thickness h and density ρs. When a swimmer of mass m is resting on it, the slab floats in fresh water with

Answer:

The answer to your inquiry is Mass = 41230.7 g or 41.23 kg.

Explanation:

Data

Density = 0.737 g/ml

Mass = ?

Volume = 14.9 gal

1 gal = 3.78 l

Process

1.- Convert gallons to liters

1 gal ---------------- 3.78 l

14.9 gal ------------- x

x = 56.44 l

2.- Convert liters to milliliters

1 l ------------------- 1000 ml

56.44 l --------------- x

x = (56.44 x 1000) / 1

x = 56444 ml

3.- Calculate the mass

Formula

Density =

Solving for mass

Mass = density x volume

Substituting values

Mass = 0.737 x 56444

Result

Mass = 41230.7 g or 41.23 kg.

Answer:

The ratio of mass that is discarded is determined by this equation:

M - m = (3a/2)/(g²- (a²/2) - (ag/2))

Explanation:

The force acting on an object in motion is defined by the equation:

F = ma

Additionally, there is a gravitational force consistently acting downwards on the object, defined as g = 9.8 ms⁻²

For convenience, we will utilize a positive notation for downward acceleration and a negative notation for upward acceleration.

Case 1:

The hot air balloon has mass = M

Acceleration = a

Upward thrust from hot air = F = constant

Gravitational force acting downward = Mg

The net force on the balloon can be expressed as:

Ma = Gravitational force - Upward Force                              

Ma = Mg - F                      (since the balloon moves downward, that means Mg > F)

F = Mg - Ma

F = M (g-a)

M = F/(g-a)

Case 2:

After releasing the ballast, the new mass becomes m. The new upward acceleration is -a/2:

The net force is expressed as:

-m(a/2) = mg - F        (The balloon is moving upwards, hence F > mg)

F = mg + m(a/2)

F = m(g + (a/2))

m = F/(g + (a/2))

Determining the fraction of the mass initially dropped:

<span>A centripetal force maintains an object's circular motion. When the ball is at the highest point, we can assume that the ball's speed v is such that the weight of the ball matches the required centripetal force to keep it moving in a circle. Hence, the string will not become slack. centripetal force = weight of the ball m v^2 / r = m g v^2 / r = g v^2 = g r v = sqrt { g r } v = sqrt { (9.80~m/s^2) (0.7 m) } v = 2.62 m/s Thus, the minimum speed for the ball at the top position is 2.62 m/s.</span>

Answer: The calorimeter's heat capacity is

Explanation:

This scenario assumes the amount of heat lost by the hot object equals the amount of heat gained by the cold object.

where,

= specific heat capacity of water =

= specific heat capacity of calorimeter =?

= mass of water = 108.7 g

= mass of calorimeter = 108.7 g

= final temperature of the mixture =

= initial temperature of the water =

= initial temperature of calorimeter =

Now substituting all provided values into the formula, we obtain

Hence, the heat capacity of the calorimeter is

Answer:

v = 66.4 m/s

Explanation:

We know that the aircraft starts off moving at a speed of

now we have

in the Y direction, we can apply kinematic equations

as there is no acceleration along the x-axis, the velocity in this direction remains unchanged

thus yielding
