A spring scale calibrated in kilograms is used to determine the density of a rock specimen. The reading on the spring scale is 0.45 kg when the specimen is suspended in air and 0.36 kg when the specimen is fully submerged in water. If the density of water is 1000 kg/m3, the density of the rock specimen is.

5000 kg/m^3

Explanation:

Here. we are asked to calculate the density of the rock specimen.

we proceed as follows;

mass of water displaced is calculated by finding the difference between the actual and apparent masses

This has a value of 0.45kg - 0.36kg = 0.09kg

The rock and water that is displaced have exactly the same volume and thus their densities is the same. This makes the ratio of their masses to be the same

Ratio of masses is

0.45 / 0.09 = 5.0

Here we can see that the mass of the rock is five times the mass of the water so it must be five times denser

Thus, since the density of water is 1000 kg/m^3 , the density of rock is 5000 kg/m^3

this is an example of "committed" time.

committed time, as contracted time, takes need over essential and available time since it is seen as profitable work. it alludes to the time allotted to keep up a home and family. at the point when a man is commuting using committed time this individual may feel that the drive is an obligation to family, for example, strolling youngsters to class or driving a mate to work. contracted and committed time clients may feel that their commute could really compare to the commute of important or leisure time clients on the grounds that their commute is profitable work. in this manner, they might be more disposed to pick a mechanized method of movement.
