An object will sink in a liquid if the density of the object is greater than that of the liquid. The mass of a sphere is 12.6 g. If the volume of this sphere is less than cm3, then the sphere will sink in liquid mercury (density = 13.6 g/cm3).

Volume of sphere = 0.93 cm³ (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of sphere = 12.6 gram

Density of liquid mercury = 13.6 g/cm³

Find:

Volume of sphere = ?

Computation:

⇒ Density = Mass / Volume

⇒ Density of liquid mercury = Mass of sphere / Volume of sphere

⇒ 13.6 g/cm³ = 12.6 g / Volume of sphere

⇒ Volume of sphere = 12.6 / 13.6

⇒ Volume of sphere = 0.92647 cm³

⇒ Volume of sphere = 0.93 cm³ (Approx)

it's when something is going so fast it makes a loud noise, breaking the sound barrier, for example: a jet makes a loud noise, not only cause of the jet but because they reached a point where they went so fast that you can year the noise from various parts, kinda like a police car, lets say the car was going   so fast that you hear the siren of the cop car right next to you, but the car is probably a mile a way, it's cos the siren was next to you a few seconds if you understand me
