A mineral oil has a density of 0.875 g/cm3. Suppose you spread 0.60 g of this oil over the surface of water in a large dish with an inner diameter of 21.6 cm. How thick is the oil layer

With a density of 0.875 g/cm³, a sample of 0.60 g of this oil would have a volume V such that

0.875 g/cm³ = (0.60 g)/V   ==>   V ≈ 0.686 cm³

If the oil is spread out uniformly over the water's surface, then it forms a cylinder whose diameter is equal to that of the dish, 21.6 cm. Then the thickness d of the oil cylinder is such that

V = π ((21.6 cm)/2)² d   ==>   d ≈ 0.0202 cm

12000j is work done

explanation:

physics means: "the branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy. the subject matter of physics, distinguished from that of chemistry and biology, includes mechanics, heat, light and other radiation, sound, electricity, magnetism, and the structure of atoms."
