Your physics teacher instructs you to determine the density of a rectangular block of unknown material. You areonly allowed to use a ruler and a spring scale that measures newtons of force.(A) Outline the experimental procedure you would use to gather the
A soda bottle is filled partway with water. A tack is poked into the side to create a hole. The cap is removed fromthe bottle.The bottle is refilled to its original level, and the tack is used to plug up the hole. The cap is tightened, and thetack is agai
The figure shows air flowing around an aircraft wing. Using both the continuity equation and Bernoulli’sequation, explain why this wing shape creates an upward force on the wing.
A soda bottle is filled partway with water. A tack is poked into the side to create a hole. The cap is removed fromthe bottle.When the tack is removed, water flows out. As the water level descends, the velocity of the water leaving thehole decreases. Expl
Derive an equation to show that the buoyancy force is equal to the weight of water that is displaced by a floating object.
A block of cork of cork of density 240 kg/m3 and volume 0.25 m3 floats in water. a. What is the weight of the block? b. What is the weight of the displaced water? c. What is the volume of the block that is above water? d. What is the minimum force needed
A beaker of water rests on an electronic balance, as shown in the figure. A mass suspended from a springscale is lowered into the water. Location 1 is above the water. Location 2 is just below the surface of the water.Location 3 is just above the bottom o
A block of wood floats in water with one-third of its volume submerged. What does this tell you about the wood?
Two blocks of the same dimensions are floating in a container of water, as shown in the figure. Which of thefollowing is a correct statement about the two blocks?
A hose with a 2-cm radius supplies water to fill a pool. Water flows out of the hose at a rate of 6 m/s. The poolhas a length of 12 m, a width of 9 m, and a depth of 2 m.(A) What is the volume flow rate of the water exiting the hose?(B) How many hours doe
