- Vadim bought his wife a “gold” bracelet from a guy on the street for $100. If he drops it in a beaker of water and the volume raises 400 cm3 and the mass is determined to be 0.5 kg, then is the jewelry gold? If it is not gold then what do you think it is made of?arrow_forwardA boy weighing 1000 N in the air can just float in seawater when almost entirely submerged.

(a) When we release the lump, does it move upward, move downward, or remain in place? (b) If we next fully submerge the lump in a less dense fluid and again release it, what does it do?arrow_forward
- One of the National Academy of Engineering Grand Challenges for Engineering is Restore and Improve Urban Infrastructure. Infrastructure includes bridges and roads, but it also includes water and sewer system, railroads, and power grids. In 2016, the state of Washington opened the SR 520 "floating" bridge. The bridge is made of 77 floating concrete boxes anchored to the bed of the lake using 58 steel cables. Each cylindrical cable is 3 inches [in] thick, 1000 feet [ft] long, and made of steel. Assume the specific gravity of steel is 7.9. What is the weight of one cable in units of pound-force [Ib]? E Click the icon to view the conversion table. E Click the icon to view SI prefixes (numbers less than one). The weight is Ibf.

During a rainstorm the box partially fills with water and it now floats 2.5 cm lower in the water. If the box is made of a material with density 250 kg/m3 and its dimensions are 10 cm long x 20 cm wide x 10 cm deep, what mass of water in kg has accumulated in the box?arrow_forwardOne of the best ways to really understand a subject is through experimentation, applied in our discipline through virtual laboratories. Do you have available the Hydrostatic experiment, in which it specifically addresses the thrust. On the topic of thrust, observe the alternatives and mark the correct one: A)Actual weight is the difference between the actual weight of a solid and the buoyancy suffered by it when submerged. B) Apparent weight is the difference between the real weight of a solid and the buoyancy suffered by it when submerged. C) The buoyant force depends on the density of the submerged solid. D)The buoyant force does not depend on the density of the fluid. E)The buoyant force has unit N and therefore depends on the density of the submerged solid.arrow_forward
