A rock that weighs 1400 N in air has an apparent weight of 900 N when submerged in fresh water (pfw = 1000 kg/m3). Calculate: A. The volume of the rock. (5 pts) B. The buoyant force on the rock. (5 pts)
A rock, which weighs 1400 N in air, is dropped into fresh water (998 kg/m3). You measure that it accelerates downward at a rate of 6.25 m/s2. What is the volume of the rock?
An object that weighs 1000 N floats with 80% of its volume submerged below water. What is the boyance force? What is the volume of the object?
An object weighs 25.0 N in the air and 20.0 N when completely submerged in water. What is the density of the object? (The density of water is 1000 .) o o ooo o sooo o o soooo *
To verify her suspicion that a rock specimen is hollow, a geologist weighs the specimen in air and in water. She finds that the specimen weighs twice as much in air as it does in water. The density of the solid part of the specimen is 2.49 × 103 kg/m3. What fraction of the specimen’s apparent volume is solid?
To verify her suspicion that a rock specimen is hollow, a geologist weighs the specimen in air and in water. She finds that the specimen weighs twice as much in air as it does in water. The density of the solid part of the specimen is 5.87 × 103 kg/m3. What fraction of the specimen’s apparent volume is solid?
To verify her suspicion that a rock specimen is hollow, a geologist weighs the specimen in air and in water. She rinds that the specimen weighs twice as much in air as it does in water. The density of the solid part of the specimen is 5.17 times 10^3 kg/m^3. What fraction of the specimen's apparent volume is solid'
1. A 20 kg block displaces 5 L of water. Determine its weight in air and water. 2. A ship weighs 20,000 tons and can displace a maximum of 150,000 tons of water. a Determine its maximum cargo weight. b If the cargo is wood with a density of 0.02 tons/ft determine the volume of wood the ship can carry . A rock has a density of 6.0 g/cm and a mass of 72g. a What is the volume of...
P1. (10 points) A rock is suspended from a scale that reads 20.0 N (in air). A beaker of water (having a density of 1000 kg/m3) is raised up so the rock is totally submerged in the water. The scale now reads 12.5 N. What is the density of the material of rock?
An iron casting containing a number of cavities weighs 23137.8 N in air and 18521.5 N in water. What is the total volume of all the cavities in the casting? The density of iron ( that is a sample with no cavities) is 7.87 g/cm3.
