additional volume of water displaced = .0234 * pi * .0425^2 = 1.33*10^-4 m^3 density of water = 1000 kg/m^3 approx so mass of rock = 1.33*10^-1 Kg weight of rock = m g = 9.81*.133 = 1.3 Newtons

a rock is thrown unward off a cliff at a 45 degree angle. THe rock falls back to the elevation it was thrown from after 3.56 seconds. It hits the water 5.31 seconds after it was thrown. How high is the cliff? what is the horizontal distance from the cliff to the point in the ...

A man throws a rock of mass m = 0.310 kg straight up into the air. In this process, his arm does a total amount of work Wnet = 105 J on the rock. Calculate the maximum distance, h, above the man's throwing hand that the rock will travel. Neglect air resistance.

Oops. I goofed. Sorry. My fingers got ahead of my brain. I think the problem means that 8% of a number is 56 kg. 0.08 x = 56 x = 56 / 0.08 x = 700

so it would be like, 5/8 ? 6/7 8,16,24,32,40,48,56,64 7,14,21,28,35,42,49,56 LCD IS 56 so now i do 56/7=8*6=48 6/7=48/56 56/8=7*5=35 so, 5/8=35/56 5/8 (35/56) < 6/7 (48/56)

Use (net Force) = ma and figure out the upward force F applied by the rope on the climber's hands. The NET force on the climber is more than F. Can you see why?

A large rock that weighs 164.0 N is suspended from the lower end of a thin wire that is 3.00 m long. The density of the rock is 3200 kg/m^3. The mass of the wire is small enough that its effect on the tension in the wire can be neglected. The upper end of the wire is held ...
