Answer from: yurimontoya759

1) A. float

There are two forces acting on an object in the water: the weight of the object (downward) and the buoyancy (upward), which is equal to the weight of displaced water. If the weight of displaced water is greater than the weight of the object, it means that there is a net force directed upward, so the object will float.

2) A. buoyant force is equal to the weight of the object

As stated in the previous question, there are only these two forces acting on an object in the water (buoyant force and weight of the object), so if the two forces are equal, then the object is in equilibrium, so it will float.

3) C. 0.59 N

The buoyancy force is given by:

$B=\rho_L V_d g$

where

$\rho_L = 1000 kg/m^3$ is the density of the liquid (water)

$V_d=60 mL=6 \cdot 10^{-2} L=6 \cdot 10^{-5} m^3$ is the volume of displaced water

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find

$B=(1000 kg/m^3)(6 \cdot 10^{-5} m^3)(9.8 m/s^2)=0.59 N$

4) C. 100.0 g

The density of the object is 20 g/cm^3, which is greater than the density of the water (1 g/cm^3): this means that the object will sink, so its volume is equal to the volume of displaced water.

Therefore, we have:

- object's density: $\rho=20 g/cm^3$

- object's volume: V=5 mL=5 cm^3

so, the mass of the object is

m=dV=(20 g/cm^3)(5 cm^3)=100.0 g

5) A. 2.0 g

The specific gravity of an object is given by the ratio between its density ( $\rho$ ) and the density of a reference substance ( $\rho_W$ ), in this case water:

$SG=\frac{\rho}{\rho_W}$

whe can rewrite each density as the ratio between mass and volume:

$SG=\frac{m_o /V_o}{m_w/V_w}$

where the suffix o refers to the object, while the suffix w refers to the water. However, if we assume that the object is completely in the water, the two volumes are equal, so we can simplify the formula:

$SG=\frac{m_o}{m_w}=\frac{16.2 g}{8.1 g}=2.0$

so here is the information for current research:

-nrel's geothermal analysts, scientists, and engineers perform a full range of research from developing advanced methods of locating and accessing geothermal resources to exploring innovative technologies to extract and produce clean energy from the heat of the earth

and here is the information for the technology of geothermal energy:

-it's clean and sustainable

-resources of geothermal energy range from the shallow ground to hot water and hot rock found a few miles beneath the earth's surface, and down even deeper to the extremely high temperatures of molten rock called magma

-almost everywhere, the shallow ground or upper 10 feet of the earth's surface maintains a nearly constant temperature between 50° and 60°f (10° and 16°c)

-geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings

-a geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building

-in the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system

-in the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger

-the heat removed from the indoor air during the summer can also be used to provide a free source of hot water
