Time difference = 2000/1.6 seconds = 1250 seconds
1 s = 1 / 60 minutes
Therefore, A is the correct answer option.
Question 9
A cubical block of plastic of side length 0.1 m encloses a fluid of density 990 kg/m
3
. What is
the weight of the block? (Assume weight of the block is only due to the fluid inside it)
A. 9.7 N
B. 4.8 N
C. 5.8 N
D. 3.6 N
E. 6.5 N
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
Weight is given as W = mg ---------------- (1)
Mass of the block can be given as m = V ρ ------------- (2)
Volume of a cube is given as V = (side)
3
-------------- (3)
Therefore, putting the value in equation 3 we get
V = (0.1)
3
Or V = 10
-3
m
3
Putting the values of V and density in equation 2 we get m = 0.99 kg
Putting the value of m and g in equation 1 we get W = 9.7 N
Therefore, A is the correct answer option.
