How are buoyancy and gravity related

Gravity exerts a downwards force on all fluids. The reason that any given part of the fluid stays still is that the upthrust around it is exactly equal to its weight at all times. When an object DISP

Physics Help Please Friction and torque

A 320-g mass and a 400-g mass are attached to the two ends of a string that goes over a pulley with a radius of 8.70 cm. Because of friction, the pulley does not begin to rotate. What is the magnitude

Find the length of the spiraling polar curve

Find the length of the spiraling polar curver = 3e^(4theta) From 0 to2pi.-I will give you a preliminary argument first, which is that 3 e^(4 θ) becomes so large for θ = 2π, and does so much of its gr

Physics question please help

I had an airplane lab, where we made our own paper airplanes and what not. We had to throw them several times, while adding paperclips for every 3 trials. Now my question is, as my mass increased, my

What mass of ethyl alcohol will give up 33,000 J of energy as it cools from 27°C to -3°C

In free fall, how fast is an object falling after 4 secs

On earth, the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s^2-9.8 m/s^2 * 4 seconds = 39.2 m/s. You can look at the units of measurement to see what you have to do to solve this: The unit for acceleration

Calling all phyiscs experts. I don't understand how to do this!

Hello, I REALLY dont know how to solve this question and Id really like some help! Here is the question : A locomotive pulls 2 wagons of the same mass. Show that the force of tension between the loco

How does light refract

I need a little help its a confusing question-Light refracts because when it goes from a less dense to a more dense medium its velocity slows down. So, consider a beam of light entering a block of gla

Many cooking pots have hard plastic or wooden handles. What is the reason for this

Many cooking pots have hard plastic or wooden handles. What is the reason for this? a. The handles are made from a good conductor of heat so that the heat is drawn away from the pan to protect your ha

String theory combines relativity and quantum mechanics

There are two branches of physics, Quantum Mechanics and Relativity .... I say two branches because the are not compatible with each other ...String theory is supposed to be able to combine the two br
