Textbook Question
Chapter 14, Problem 1P
ILW A fish maintains its depth in fresh water by adjusting the air content of porous bone or air sacs to make its average density the same as that of the water. Suppose that with its air sacs collapsed, a fish has a density of 1.08 g/cm3. To what fraction of its expanded body volume must the fish inflate the air sacs to reduce its density to that of water?

The drawing shows an edge-on view of two planar surfaces that intersect and are mutually perpendicular. Surface (1) has
an area of 1.90 m², while surface (2) has an area of 3.90 m². The electric field in the drawing is uniform and has a
magnitude of 215 N/C. Find the magnitude of the electric flux through surface (1 and 2 combined) if the angle 8 made
between the electric field with surface (2) is 30.0°.

The hypotenuse,r, is 100cm (given) and a height, y, is 3.5 cm (given). How do I find the Angle θ1? And, for distance traveled, s, would all be 100cm? For my first observations I recorded four trials in seconds: 1 - 2.13s, 2 - 2.60s, 3 - 2.08s, & 4 - 1.95s. This would all go in the coloumn for time right? How do I solve for the experimental approximation of the acceleration? Help with trial 1 would be great so I can use that as a model for the other trials. Thanks!arrow_forward
