If the column of mercury in a barometer stands at 72.6 cm, what is the atmospheric pressure?
(The density of mercury is 13.6 X 103 kg/m3 and g = 9.80 m/s2)​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:pressure = density * acceleration due to gravity * height

H=72.6cm= 0.726m

P=0.726*13.6*10^3*9.8

P=96761.28Pa

Explanation:

Answer 2

The atmospheric pressure if the column of mercury in a barometer stands at 72.6 cm is 9.68 × 10⁴ Pa.

What is Pressure?

The stress at a location within a confined fluid or the perpendicular force per unit area are the two definitions of pressure used in the physical sciences. A 42-pound box with an area of 84 square inches at the bottom will apply pressure on a surface equal to the force divided by the surface area.

Given:

The height in the barometer, h = 72.6 cm or 0.726 m,

The density of mercury, d =  13.6 × 10³ kg/m³,

The gravitational acceleration, g = 9.80 m/s²,

Calculate the atmospheric pressure by the following formula,

P = dgh

Here, P is the atmospheric pressure

Substitute the values,

P =  13.6 × 10³ × 9.80 × 0.726

P = 9.68 × 10⁴ Pa,

Therefore, the atmospheric pressure if the column of mercury in a barometer stands at 72.6 cm is 9.68 ×10⁴ Pa.

The largest planet in the solar system is Jupiter,with a diameter of 71,398 km. What is the diameter of Jupiter in centimeters?

Answers

Answer:7139800000

Explanation:

The largest planet in the solar system is Jupiter. Its equatorial diameter is approximately 143,000 kilometres (ca. 88,856 mi miles).

What diameter of Jupiter in centimetres?

Jupiter is a gas giant because it consists largely of gas and liquid, as opposed to solid substance. With an equator diameter of 142,984 kilometres (88,846 mi), it is the solar system's biggest planet.

About 80% of Jupiter is hydrogen, and 20% is helium. Over a solid core, a thick layer of liquid hydrogen is covered by swirling gas. At 1,000 kilometres below the cloud layer's outer edge, there is a lot of pressure. The hydrogen gas changes into a liquid there.

Therefore, By squaring the scale factor for length, the scale factor for area may be calculated. Consequently, s2 is the scale factor for area. If the situation is the opposite, a solution to the issue under investigation is offered. The area scale factor is 2.

You are assigned the design of a cylindrical, pressurized water tank for a future colony on Mars, where the acceleration due to gravity is 3.71 meters per second per second. The pressure at the surface of the water will be 150 KPa , and the depth of the water will be 14.4 m . The pressure of the air in the building outside the tank will be 88.0 KPa .
Find the net downward force on the tank's flat bottom, of area 2.15 m2 , exerted by the water and air inside the tank and the air outside the tank.

Answers

Answer: F = 6262.2 kN

Explanation: Pressure is defined as force per area. But pressure varies according to the depth of a fluid: in air, it decreases the higher the altitude, while in water, it increases the deeper you go.

So, at the bottom of the tank, besides the pressure of air inside the tank and air outside the tank, there is pressure of water due to its depth.

Pressure due to the depth is calculated as

                                    [tex]P=h.\rho.g[/tex]

h is the depth in m

ρ is density of the fluid, in this case is water, so ρ = 997 kg/m³

g is acceleration due to gravity, which, in this case, is 3.71 m/s²

Then, pressure at the bottom of the tank due to variation in depth is

[tex]P=14.4(997)(3.71)[/tex]

P = 53263.73 Pa or 53.26 kPa

Assuming positive referential is downward, all pressures at the bottom point down, so total or resultant pressure is:

[tex]P_{r}=P_{1}+P_{2}+P_{3}[/tex]

[tex]P_{r}=150+88+53.26[/tex]

[tex]P_{r}=[/tex] 291.26 kPa

At last, pressure is force per area:

[tex]P=\frac{F}{A}[/tex]

[tex]F=P.A[/tex]

[tex]F_{r}=P_{r}.A[/tex]

[tex]F_{r}=291.26.10^{3}(2.15)[/tex]

[tex]F_{r}=[/tex] 626209 N or 626.2 kN

At the cylindrical tank's flat bottom, net force has magnitude 626.2 kN.

Which ray diagram demonstrates the phenomenon of absorption?

Answers

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The ray diagram demonstrated the phenomenon of absorption in B. Hence, option B is correct.

What is absorption?

Absorption is the phenomenon of electromagnetic radiation taking up the energy of photons and it also transfers the electromagnetic energy to the internal energy of the absorber.  

Absorption refers to the transfer of the energy of a wave to matter as the wave passes through it. The process in which the light waves get converted into energy. Absorption causes attenuation of the waves and the intensity decreases gradually when the light waves propagate through the medium.

From the given, the first diagram represents the light passes through the slit, it gets diffracted and forms alternate bright and dark fringes in the screen. The third diagram represents that the light ray strikes the surface it gets reflected and the path of light gets changed.

Thus, the absorption is the ray diagram given in the second image. Hence, option B is correct.

Which of the moon's properties prevents it from being pulled inward by Earth?
O gravity
O inertia
O shape
O structure

Answers

The answer is Inertia

Answer:

O inertia

Explanation:

The moon's property that prevents it from being pulled inward by the Earth is called it's inertia.

Every object in the universal space have gravitational force of attraction to one another due to their masses.

An inertia is the reluctant of a body to move or the tendency of it to remain in constant motion.

Inertia entails the property of objects to remain at rest or continue in uniform motion.

As the force of gravity acts between the earth and the moon, inertia keeps a body in constant position.

A 2.34-kg gun has a recoil velocity of 5.2 m/sec. At what velocity does it fire its 95-gram bullets?

Answers

Explanation:

We need to use the conservation of energy to help us solve this one.

The energy imparted onto the bullet projectile is equal to the energy imparted into the recoiling gun. We can ignore potential energy and only consider the kinetic energy of the two masses (bullet and gun).

Remember that kinetic energy is expressed as [tex]K_E = \frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]

Conservation of energy means that both the gun and the bullet have the same amount of energy.

[tex]\frac{1}{2}m_gv_g^2 = \frac{1}{2}m_b v_b^2[/tex]

We'll want to put the mass terms into the same units. So the gun has a mass of 2340 grams.

A runner completed the 100.-meter dash in
10.0 seconds. Her average speed was
A) 10.0 m/s
B) 1,000 m/s
C) 0.100 m/s
D) 100 m/s

Answers

Answer:

A) 10.0 m/s

Explanation:

the formula for average speed is  v=d/t

the distance is 100 meters

The time is 10.0 seconds

so  v=100m/10.0s

       = 10.0m/s

so the runners average speed was 10.0m/s

The average speed of the runner is equal to 10.0 m/s. Therefore, option (A) is correct.

What is speed?

The speed of a body can be described as the distance covered in a definite time interval. The average speed can be defined as a scalar parameter as it possesses magnitude with no direction.

The speed can be determined from the ratio of the distance traveled by the object to the time taken to travel that distance.

The speed of any object can be calculated from the formula equation mentioned below:

Speed =  total distance /time taken

Given, the distance covered by the runner = 100 m

The time taken by the runner, t = 10.0 s

The average speed of the runner can be calculated from the formula as shown below:

Speed = 100/10 = 10 m/s

Therefore, the average speed of the runner is 10.0 m/s.

58) Two balls, A and B are simultaneously projected from the top
of a building at 10 mis upwards & 20 m/s downwards respectively. Find
out the separation btwn them 3 sec after projection.

Answers

Answer:

90 m

Explanation:

For ball A::

The equation of a ball moving upwards is given by the formula:

s = ut - (1/2)gt²

where u is the initial velocity, t is the time covered, g is the acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s² and s is the distance travelled.

Given that:

u = 10 m/s, t = 3 sec, g = 10 m/s², hence:

s = (10 * 3) - (1/2) * 10 * 3²

s = 30 - 45

s = -15 m

The negative sign means the object travels in the opposite direction. Hence s = 15 m

For ball B::

The equation of a ball falling downwards is given by the formula:

s = ut + (1/2)gt²

Given that:

u = 10 m/s, t = 3 sec, g = 10 m/s², hence:

s = (10 * 3) + (1/2) * 10 * 3²

s = 30 + 45

s = 75 m

Hence the separation between the two balls after 3 sec of projection = 15 m + 75 m = 90 m
