5. You are preparing some apparatus for a visit to a newly discovered planet Caasi having oceans of glycerine and a surface acceleration due to gravity of 4.15 m/s2. If your apparatus floats in the oceans on earth with 25.0% of its volume submerged, what percentage will be submerged in the glycerine oceans of Caasi

Respuesta :

Answer:

The percentage that will be submerged is  [tex]V_c= 20.4[/tex]% of V

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The acceleration due to gravity is in cassi is  [tex]g_c = 5.40 m/s^2[/tex]

       On  earth the percentage of submerged volume is [tex]V_w = 25[/tex]%

The objective is obtain the amount of the apparatus that will submerge in the glycerin oceans of Caasi

  According to Archimedes principle

         [tex]Buoyant\ force \ on \ \ the\ apparatu \ on \ earth = weight \of \ the \ apparatus\ on \\earth[/tex]

 Mathematically this is represented as

             [tex]F_B = W[/tex]

The Buoyant force is mathematically represented as

               [tex]F_B = \rho_{s} * V_w g_{e}[/tex]

Where  [tex]\rho_{s}[/tex] is the density of sea-water with a constant value of  [tex]1030\ kg/m^3[/tex]

             [tex]V_w[/tex] is the volume of the apparatus in water

              [tex]g_e[/tex] is the gravity on earth  

 And the weight is mathematically represented as

              [tex]W = mg_{e}[/tex]

Let V be the total volume of the apparatus then the volume of the apparatus in water would be

             [tex]V_w = 0.25V[/tex]

Substituting this into the above equation

        [tex]\rho_{s} * 0.25V g_{e} = m g_{e}[/tex]

                      [tex]m = \rho_s * 0.25V[/tex]

      Substituting values

                     [tex]m =1030 * 0.25V[/tex]

                         [tex]= 257.5Vkg[/tex]

For Flotation to be possible in glycerine oceans of Caasi

    [tex]Buoyant\ force \ on \ \ the\ apparatu \ in\ the \ glycerine \ oceans = weight \of \ the \ \\apparatus \ due \ planet \ cassi \ gravity[/tex]

                  [tex]\rho_{g} * V_c * g_{c} = m g_{c}[/tex]

Where [tex]\rho_{g}[/tex] is the density of glycerine which has a constant value of [tex]1260 kg/m^3[/tex]

          [tex]V_c[/tex] is the volume of the apparatus submerged in the glycerine oceans of Caasi

       Substituting values

                  [tex]1260 kg/m^3 *V_c = 257.5V[/tex]

  Making [tex]V_c[/tex] the subject

                  [tex]V_c = \frac{257.5V}{1260}[/tex]

                       [tex]= 0.204V[/tex]

                        [tex]V_c= 20.4[/tex]% of V
