A ship is using a chian to pull up its anchor in the ocean. The volume of the anchor is 2.4m^3, and the anchor is made of steel and has a density of 7800 kg/m^3. If the density of the ocean water is 1,000 kg/m^3, what is the change in weight on the anchor?

Expert Solution

Original weight of the anchor is

W = dVg

= 7800 * 2.4 * 9.8

= 183456 N

Mass of water displaced by the anchor = density of water * volume of anchor

= 1000 * 2.4 = 2400 kg

Weight of the water displaced = 2400 * 9.8 = 23520 N

Now the weight of the anchor in water is, W' = 183456 N - 23520 N

= 159936 N

So, the change in weight of the anchor is = 183456 - 159936= 23520 N

This means the weight of the dispaced water is equal to the change in the wieght of the anchor.

A crane lifts a sunk ship of a mass of 20,000 kg out of the ocean. Density of sea water is 1025 kg/m3 and the average density of the ship is 7200 kg/m3. Determine (a) the tension in the crane's cable when the ship is below the surface of the water and (b) the tension when the ship is completely out of the water.

The volume of water in the ocean is approximately 1.36 ✕ 1018 m3 and 0.030% of the hydrogen in this water is deuterium. (Assume ρwater = 1000 kg/m3 and the atomic masses MH-2 and MHe-4 are 2.0141 u and 4.0026 u, respectively.) (a) Determine the amount of energy (in J) that would be generated if all this deuterium fused to He-4. (B)Determine the number of years this amount of energy could sustain the world's power consumption if it remained constant...

For this problem, imagine that you are on a ship that is oscillating up and down on a rough sea. Assume for simplicity that this is simple harmonic motion (in the vertical direction) with amplitude 5 cm and frequency 2 Hz. There is a box on the floor with mass m = 1kg. (a)Assuming the box remains in contact with the floor throughout, find the maximum and minimum values of the normal force exerted on it by the floor over...
