Explanation:
a) Density is the amount of mass in a specific amount of volume
b) Some substances are less dense than water so will float and vice versa
c) The wooden plank has less density than water due to having larger volume and vice versa with the wooden block since volume and density are inversely proportional
II) (a) They are all metals
(b) water -> Compound
oxygen -> Element
Gold-> Element
Salt-> Compound
·The acceleration of gravity is proportional to
1 / (the square of the distance from the center) .
When we're on the surface, we're 1 radius from the center of the Earth,
and the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s² .
The boy's weight = (mass) · (gravity) = (50kg) · (9.8 m/s²)
= 490 newtons .
At the distance of 5 radii from the center (4 radii altitude from the surface),
the acceleration of gravity is
(9.8 m/s²) · (1/5)² = 0.39 m/s² .
The boy's weight is (mass) · (gravity) = (50kg) · (0.39 m/s²)
= 19.6 newtons .
Just as we expected, his weight at that distance is
(19.6 / 490) = 0.04 = 1/25 = 1/5² of his weight on the surface.
Carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen are all non metals.
Stressing an equilibrium simply means that the physical properties in which already exists are balanced. Stress can be applied by either changing the pressure or the volume or temperature.
