It it balanced by the upward reaction exerted by the smooth surface (or "soomthy surafce", as you prefer) on the block.

What is the apparent weight of the floating block when a block of wood is floating in a lake?

The apparent weight of the floating block is equal to the weight of the displaced water, according to Archimedes' principle. Since the block is floating, its weight is balanced by the upthrust force of the water pushing up on it. So, the apparent weight of the floating block is less than its actual weight.


What should be the net force in the vertical direction when the block is floating?

When a block is floating in a fluid, the net force in the vertical direction is zero. This is because the weight of the block is balanced by the buoyant force acting in the opposite direction, resulting in equilibrium.


Is the buoyancy force or the weight of the block larger?

The buoyancy force is typically larger than the weight of a floating block because the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the block. This relationship allows objects to float when the buoyant force exceeds their weight.


If I'm trying to push a huge block what do you have to overcome to move it Just the weight of the block the weight of the block plus friction or weight of the block plus their own body weight?

To move a block, you have to overcome the weight of the block plus the force of friction between the block and the surface it's on. Friction opposes motion, so you'll need to apply a force greater than the combined force of the block's weight and friction to move it. Your own body weight doesn't directly affect the force needed to move the block unless you're using your weight to increase the force you're applying.


How does the tension in the rope compare to the weight of the hanging block?

The tension in the rope is equal to the weight of the hanging block when the block is stationary and not accelerating.

Does the coefficient of kinetic friction depend on the weight of the block?

No, It does not depends on weight of block because this weight of block is being balanced by normal force. So by increasing weight of block, there is no effect on coefficient of friction.

How do you tell difference between 350 block and 400 block?

The harmonic balancer and flexplate are externally balanced on the 400, meaning the balancer isn't smooth and consistent all the way around. The flexplate for the 400 has a balancing weight welded to it. The 350 is internally balanced and has the typical smooth balancer and unbalanced flexplate.


A block of wood is floating in water The weight of the part of the block above water is one-third of the block What is the weight of the water displace by the block of wood?

The weight of water displaced by the floating block of wood is exactly equal to the weight of the ENTIRE block of wood, regardless of how much of the wood is above the water level.

Weight of a bare Chevy big block?

the weight of my 427 Chevy big block. Which is the same as the 396, 454. This is a bare block we are speaking about. the total weight of a bare block Is right at 200 pounds.

What instrument would you use to measure the forces on the block?

Balanced .


What is the relationship between the weights of the block to the friction force?

The friction force is directly proportional to the normal force acting on the block. The normal force is equal to the weight of the block when the block is on a horizontal surface. Therefore, the relationship between the weight of the block and the friction force is that the friction force increases with the weight of the block.
