A8-kg plastic tank that has a volume of 0.18 m3 is filled with liquid water. assuming the density of water is 1000 kg/m3, determine the weight of the combined system.

1.84 × 10³ N

Explanation:

To determine the weight of the system, we will determine its mass which is equal to the sum of the masses of the plastic tank (8 kg) and the water.

We have 0.18 m³ of water with a density of 1000 kg/m³. Its mass is:

0.18 m³ × 1000 kg/m³ = 180 kg

The mass of the system is 180 kg + 8 kg = 188 kg.

We can find the weight (w) of the system using Newton's second law of motion.

w = m × g = 188 kg × 9.81 m/s² = 1.84 × 10³ N

where

g is the gravity

a 20-cm-long, cylindrical graphite (pure carbon) rod is inserted into an oxidizing atmosphere at 1145 k and 1.013 x 105 pa pressure. the oxidizing process is limited by the diffu- sion of oxygen counterflow to the carbon monoxide that is formed on the cylindrical surface.
