(a)The volume of the iron anchor = 25.2 m³

(b)The mass of iron = 196812 kg

Explanation:

Density: This is the ratio of the mass of a body to its volume. The S.I unit of density is kg/m³

(a)

From Archimedes principle, the iron will displace a volume of water that is equal to its volume. And the weight of water displaced is equal to loss in weight or upthrust.

Therefore, Upthrust = lost in weight = weight of water displace.

Therefore, Volume of the iron = mass of water displace/density of water

Vi = m₁/D₁ Equation 1

Where Vi = volume of iron, m₁ = mass of water displaced, D₁ = Density of water.

Given: upthrust = 252 N, ∴ m₁ = 252/10 = 25.2 kg.

Constant: D₁ = 1.0 kg/m³

Substituting these values into equation 1,

Vi = 25.2/1.0

Vi = 25.2 m³

Therefore the volume of the iron anchor = 25.2 m³

(b)

Density of the iron = mass of the iron/volume of the iron.

Therefore, Mass of the iron = Density of the iron × volume of the ironequation 2

Given: Density of the iron = 7810 kg/m³, Volume of the iron = 25.2 m³

Substituting these values into equation 2,

Mass of the iron = 7810×25.2

Mass of the iron = 196812 kg.

Therefore the mass of iron = 196812 kg

Acetic acid /əˈsiːtɪk/, systematically named ethanoic acid /ˌɛθəˈnoʊɪk/, is a colourless liquid organic compound with the chemical formula ch3cooh (also written as ch3co2h or c2h4o2). when undiluted, it is sometimes called glacial acetic acid. vinegar is no less than 4% acetic acid by volume, making acetic acid the main component of vinegar apart from water. acetic acid has a distinctive sour taste and pungent smell. in addition to household vinegar, it is mainly produced as a precursor to polyvinyl acetate and cellulose acetate. it is classified as a weak acid since it only partially dissociates in solution, but concentrated acetic acid is corrosive and can attack the skin.acetic acidnamespreferred iupac nameacetic acidsystematic iupac nameethanoic acidother namesvinegar (when dilute); hydrogen acetate; methanecarboxylic acid[1][2]identifierscas number64-19-7 3d model (jsmol)interactive image3dmetb00009 reference506007chebichebi: 15366 chemblchembl539 chemspider171 drugbankdb03166 echa infocard100.000.528ec number200-580-7e numbere260 (preservatives)gmelin reference1380iuphar/bps1058keggd00010 meshacetic+acidpubchem cid176rtecs numberaf1225000uniiq40q9n063p un number2789inchiinchi=1s/c2h4o2/c1-2(3)4/h1h3,(h,3,4) key: qtbsbxvteameqo-uhfffaoysa-n smilescc(o)=o

In an old-fashioned amusement park ride, passengers stand inside a 3.0-m-tall, 5.0-m-diameter hollow steel cylinder with their backs against the wall. the cylinder begins to rotate about a vertical axis. then the floor on which the passengers are standing suddenly drops away! if all goes well, the passengers will “stick” to the wall and not slide. clothing has a static coefficient of friction against steel in the range 0.60 to 1.0 and a kinetic coefficient in the range 0.40 to 0.70. part a what is the minimum rotational frequency, in rpm, for which the ride is safe? express your answer using two significant figures. f f = rpm

Light from two different sources are incident upon the same side of a polarizing filter. light from one source is polarized with total intensity ip, while light from the other source is unpolarized with total intensity iu. as you rotate the polarizing filter through 360 degrees, the intensity of the transmitted light on the other side varies by a factor of 9. what is the relative intensity of the initial polarized source to the unpolarized source, or ip/iu?
