The viscous force FV acting on the sphere is given by FV = krv where r is the radius of the sphere, v is its velocity and k is a constant. The value of k in SI units is 17. Determine the SI base units of k. SI base units Use the value of the upthrust acting on the sphere to calculate the density ρ of the liquid. ρ = kg m–3 On the sphere in , draw three arrows to show the directions of the weight W, the upthrust U and the viscous force FV.

State the conditions required for the formation of a stationary wave. State the phase difference between any two vibrating particles in a stationary wave between two adjacent nodes. phase difference = ° A motorcycle is travelling at 13.0 m s–1 along a straight road. The rider of the motorcycle sees a pedestrian standing in the road directly ahead and operates a horn to emit a warning sound. The pedestrian hears the warning sound from the horn at a frequency of 543 Hz. The speed of the sound in the air is 334 m s–1.
