What is Plasticine commonly used for?

If you want to know what Plasticine is commonly used for, it is for child play and use in schools. In schools Plasticine is used for art lessons such as modelling.


How does a blacksmith make metal objects?

As you use your hands to make an object of Plasticine a blacksmith uses a hammer to shape the hot metal. As a blacksmith to test how I am going to forge something i will sometimes use a piece of Plasticine and use my hammer to shape it. Surprising enough hot metal and plasticine act very similar.


What measurement do they use on force meters?

Newtons (N) or Pounds (lbs)


What units of measurement does a force meter use?

The unit of force is the Newton. Force meters are usuallycalled "Newton meters" in British schools. The unit used is therefore the Newton.


What force is required to accelerate a body with a mass of 18 kilograms at a rate of 36 m s?

36 meters is not a "rate".If you have an acceleration (in meters per second square), use Newton's Second Law:Net force = mass x acceleration.36 meters is not a "rate".If you have an acceleration (in meters per second square), use Newton's Second Law:Net force = mass x acceleration.36 meters is not a "rate".If you have an acceleration (in meters per second square), use Newton's Second Law:Net force = mass x acceleration.36 meters is not a "rate".If you have an acceleration (in meters per second square), use Newton's Second Law:Net force = mass x acceleration.


How much work is required to pull a sled 5 meters if you use 60n of force?

Work = (Force) x (Distance) = 60 x 5= 300 Newton Meters = 300 Joules


Can you use elmers glue to stick plasticine and modeling clay to bristal board?

No, it won't stick . Best to use silicone.


How much force did the mail man use if he performed 180 Joules of work to life a box 0.8 meters?

I suggest you use the definition of work (work = force x distance), replace the numbers you know, and solve for force.


Can you use super glue to stick plasticine to polystyrene?

Possibly, but I would try a silicon type glue first.


Is plasticine a liquid?

It's both a liquid with very high viscosity and a solid with very low degree of 'hardness'.


How to find work if you have to use 150 newtons to pull an object 8 meters?

Work = (force) times (distance)Force = 150 newtonsDistance = 8 metersWork = (150) x (8) = 1,200 newton-meters = 1,200 joules


How would you find the density of plasticine?

Roll the plasticine into a sphere and measure the diameter and use the formula for the volume of a sphere V=pi r^2, then weight the sphere to get the mass and use Density = Volume upon Mass. Alternatively, use Archimedes' principle: 1) Weigh a piece of plasticine to get its mass. Very carefully fill a glass with water so full that it cannot contain one more drop of water. Immerse the plasticine in the glass, collecting the water that has run out of the full glass. The volume of the water is equal to the volume of the plasticine. Determine the volume of the water by either weighing it (density of pure water is 1 g per mL) or by accurately measuring the volume. Density = mass (g)/ volume (mL) 2) If you have a balance that can determine mass of an hanging object, first weigh your plasticine to determine its mass. Then attach it to string and take its mass hanging (the string also has mass). Then take its mass while the plasticine is just submersed in water. It will weigh less when submersed in water. The loss of mass when submersed is equal to the mass of water that has the same volume as the plasticine. (density of water is 1 g per mL) Now you can determine the volume of the plasticine since the mass lost in g equals the volume of water in mL. Density is the original mass divided by the volume.
