Answer:
When we have irregular objects, it may become very hard to calculate the volume of the object, as we actually can not use any simple equation to find it.
The mass is less tricky, just find a scale and wheight it, now we know the mass of the irregular object.
One way to measure the volume of the object is using water... how we do it?
Get some recipient with water, measure the height of the water.
Introduce your object into the water and totally submerge it, now the level of the water will rise. This is because as you introduce the object under the water, you are displacing up a given volume of water that has the same volume as the irregular object.
Now that you know the height of the water before and after you put your object, you can easily calculate the volume of water displaced, and that will be the volume of the object (the tricky part may be totally submerging the object if, for example, is wood and it floats, here you can use a thin wire to push it down but it will affect a little bit the measures.)
Shortly after receiving a traffic ticket for speeding, Fred made numerous comments about the road signs being inadequate and is GPS telling him a different speed limit. This would be an example of:
Answer:
External locus of control
Explanation:
External locus of control is an attitude people possess that makes them attribute their failures or successes to factors other than themselves. The opposite of this type of attitude is the Internal locus of control where the individuals take responsibility for the outcomes of their actions whether good or bad. One good thing about the external locus of control is that when the individuals with this characteristic record successes, they attribute it to others and this presents them as people with team spirit. However, when they record failures, they do not want to take the blame, but rather attribute it to others.
Fred exhibits an external locus of control because he attributed his speeding to other factors like the road signs and GPS instead of fully admitting that it was his fault.
Which of the following illustrates an increase in potential energy? Group of answer choices a wind-up toy winding down a person climbs a set of stairs an apple dropping from a tree a firecracker explodes
Answer:
A person climbs a set of stairs
Explanation:
Potential energy is said to be possessed by an object due to its position. As the height from the ground level increase, the potential energy increases. It is calculated by the below formula as :
P = mgh
Out of the given options, the option that illustrates an increase in potential energy is option (b) i.e. a person climbs a set of stairs. As he steps one stair, its position from ground increases. It means its potential energy increases.
i)Distinguish between different methods of charging. ii) You are provided with a positively charged gold leaf electroscope. State and explain what happens when a. a glass rod rubbed with silk is brought near the disc of electroscope. b. an ebonite rod rubbed with fur is brought near the disc of electroscope. c. an uncharged metal rod is brought near the disc of electroscope d. a glass rod rubbed with silk is rolled on the disc of electroscope.
Answer:
Explanation:
On rubbing a glass rod with silk, the electrons from the glass rod get transferred to the silk. The silk now has an excess of electrons and so is negatively-charged. On the other hand, the glass rod is deficient in electrons and hence is positively-charged.
In the above case, the silk undergoes negative electrification.
Now, when the positively charged glass rod is touched on the disc of a negatively charged gold leaf electroscope, the electrons shifts towards rod, hence amount of charge on gold leaves decreases and the divergence between the gold leaves decreases as unlike charges attract each other.
Hence, the divergence decreases when a glass rod rubbed with silk is brought near the disc of negatively charged electroscope.

A narrow beam of light containing red (660 nm) and blue (470 nm) wavelengths travels from air through a 1.00 cm thick flat piece of crown glass and back to air again. The beam strikes at an incident angle of 30 degrees. (a) At what angles do the two colors emerge
Answer:
The color blue emerges at 19.16° and the color red emerges at 19.32°.
Explanation:
The angle at which the two colors emerge can be calculated using the Snell's Law:
[tex]n_{1}sin(\theta_{1}) = n_{2}sin(\theta_{2})[/tex]
Where:
n₁ is the refractive index of the incident medium (air) = 1.0003
n₂ is the refractive index of the refractive medium:
blue light in crown glass = 1.524
red light in crown glass = 1.512
θ₁ is the angle of the incident light = 30°
θ₂ is the angle of the refracted light
For the red wavelengths we have:
[tex] \theta_{2} = arcsin(\frac{n_{1}sin(\theta_{1})}{n_{2}}) = arcsin(\frac{1.0003*sin(30)}{1.512}) = 19.32 ^{\circ} [/tex]
For the blue wavelengths we have:
[tex] \theta_{2} = arcsin(\frac{n_{1}sin(\theta_{1})}{n_{2}}) = arcsin(\frac{1.0003*sin(30)}{1.524}) = 19.16 ^{\circ} [/tex]
Therefore, the color blue emerges at 19.16° and the color red emerges at 19.32°.
I hope it helps you!

an object weights 0.250 kgf in air 0.150 in water and 0.125 in an oil.find out the density of the object and the oil
Answer:
1) The density of the object = 2500 kg/m³
2) The density of the oil = 1250 kg/m³
Explanation:
1) The information relating to the question are;
The mass of the object in air = 0.250 kgf
The mass of the object in water = 0.150 kgf
The mass of the object in the oil = 0.125 kgf
By Archimedes's principle, we have;
The upthrust on the object in water = Mass in air - mass in water = The weight of the water displaced
The upthrust on the object in water = 0.250 - 0.150 = 0.1 kgf
∴ The weight of the water displaced = 0.1 kgf
Given that the object is completely immersed in the water, we have;
The volume of the water displaced = The volume of the object
The volume of 0.1 kg of water water displaced = Mass of the water/(Density of water)
The volume of 0.1 kg of water = 0.1/1000 = 0.0001 m³
The density of the object = (Mass in air)/ volume = 0.250/0.0001 = 2500 kg/m³
The density of the object = 2500 kg/m³
2) Whereby the mass of the object in the oil = 0.125 kgf
The upthrust of the oil = The weight of the oil displaced
The upthrust of the oil on the object = Mass of the object in air - mass of the object in the oil
The upthrust of the oil on the object = 0.250 - 0.125 = 0.125 kgf
The weight of the oil displaced = The upthrust of the oil
Given that the volume of the oil displaced = The volume of the oil, we have;
The volume of the oil displaced = 0.0001 m³
The mass of the 0.0001 m³ = 0.125 kg
Therefore the density of the oil = 0.125/0.0001 = 1250 kg/m³.
The density of the oil = 1250 kg/m³.
You are hiking in a canyon and you notice an echo. You decide to let out a yell and notice it took 2 seconds before you heard the echo of your yell. How far away is the canyon wall that reflected your yell
Answer:
d = 343 m
Explanation:
Given that,
You notice that an echo took 2 seconds before you heard the echo of your yell.
We need to find that how far away is the canyon wall that reflected your yell. It means we need to find the distance.
The distance covered by an object is given by :
d = v × t
v is speed of sound in air, v = 343 m/s
The sound took 1 s to reach the wall and 1 s back to you.
It means that,
d = 343 × 1
d = 343 m
So, canyon will reflect your yell at a distance of 343 m

What two factors determine how much potential energy an object has?
Answer:
The mass of the object and its height in the gravitational field of the Earth.
Explanation:
If we are talking about gravitational potential energy which is defined as:
[tex]U=m\,*\,g\,*\,h[/tex]
being "m" the object's mass, "g" the acceleration due to gravity, and "h" the height at which the object is located relative to the conventionally picked level for zero of potential energy.
As long as the value of "g" is constant, the only two variables that determine the gravitational potential energy are the mass (m) of the object and its relative height (h).
Answer:
The objects weight and height above Earth's surface
Explanation:

State 1 difference between 1 way rotary motion and reversible rotary motion
Answer:
The difference between One-way as well as reversible rotary motion is described below.
Explanation:
Unless rotary motions occur restricted to single direction exclusively (i.e. whether clockwise as well as anti-clockwise only), it is defined as another rotary 'one-way' motion.This motor establishes that continuously variable movement at 360 ° chemically guided is conceivable. The rotating is regulated, and for a particular direction, the biochemical occurrences guiding rotation become incredibly selective.the unit of energy is a derived unit
Explanation:
Hi, there!!
Energy is defined as the capacity or ability to do work. It's SI unit is Joule.
here,
Joule = (kg×m×m)/(s×s)
= kg×m^2/s^2.
Therefore, the derived unit is kg.m^2 by s^2.
Hope it helps...
