Q

Density of any other substance with respect to the density of water at 4 degree Celsius is called

A

Relative density
or specific gravity (if the referenced substances is water)

20
Q

The ratio of mass of a given volume of a substance to the mass of an equal volume of water at 4 degree Celsius denotes

A

Relative density
or specific gravity (if the referenced substances is water)

21
Q

Relative density can be measured using

A

Pycnometer or density bottle

22
Q

Density bottle can be used to measure

A

Relative density
or specific gravity (if the referenced substances is water)

23
Q

If the density of a substance is less than the density of liquid

A

It will float

24
Q

A direct reading instrument used for measuring the density are relative density of a liquid is called

A

Hydrometer

25
Hydrometer is based on the principle of
Principal of flotation The weight of a liquid displaced by the immersed portion of hydrometer is equal to weight of the hydrometer
26
Hydrometer maybe calibrator for different uses such as
Lactometer saccharometer alcoholometers
27
Density of milk is measured by Density of sugar in a liquid measured by Higher level of alcohol in spirits is measured by
Lactometer Saccharometer Alcoholometers
28
Lactometer work on the principle of
Gravity of milk
29
The pressure is more on the bottom less are the top of the liquid. This pressure difference causes a force on the object and pushes it upward. This course is called______&. Phenomenon is called_______
Buoyant force Buoyancy
30
Saltwater provides more Buoyant force than freshwater
Buoyant Force depends as much on the density of liquid as on the volume displaced
31
_________is an instrument that demonstrate the principle of buoyancy
Cartesian driver
32
Archimedes principle is the consequence of ________ law
Pascal
33
Archimedes devised principles of the________ after he noticed his own apparent loss in weight while sitting in his bath
Hydrostatic balance
34
Archimedes principle
State the body immersed in a fluid experiences vertical upward buoyant force equal to the weight of the fluid it displaces
35
The correct lactometer reading is obtained only at the temperature of
60°F
36
Law of flotation
The weight of your floating body in a fluid is equal to weight of the fluid displaced by the body The centre of gravity of the floating body and the centre of buoyancy are in the same vertical line
37
Flotation therapy uses water that contain Epson salt rich in
Magnesium As a floater glasses relaxes he or she is obsorbing this magnesium through the skin. Magnesium body to process insulin which lower a person's risk of developing type 2 diabetes
38
Cartesian driver is an experiment which demonstrate the principle of
Buoyancy and ideal gas law
39
Unit of relative density
No unit
40
_____ is a device used to measure the relative density of liquid based on the Archimedes principle
Hydrometer
41
lactometer Is a device used to check the purity of milk by measuring you its density using
Archimedes principle
42
Clouds float in atmosphere because of the their
Low Density
43
They drinking straw work on the existence of
Atmospheric pressure
