The level of toluene (a flammable hydrocarbon) in a storage tank may fluctuate between 10 and 400 cm from the top of the tank. since it is impossible to see inside the tank, an open-end manometer with water or mercury as the manometer fluid is to be used to determine the toluene level. one leg of the manometer is attached to the tank 500 cm from the top. a nitrogen blanket at atmospheric pressure is maintained over the tank contents. felder, richard m.; rousseau, ronald w.; bullard, lisa g.. elementary principles of chemical processes, 4th edition (page 81). wiley. kindle edition.

Answer:
When water is used the reading is [tex] R = 2281.6 \ cm [/tex]
When mercury is used the reading is [tex] R = 23.83 \ cm [/tex]
The best fluid to use is mercury because for water a slight change in toluene level will cause a large change in height .
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The length of the leg of the manometer to the top of the tank is d = 500cm
The toluene level where in the tank where the height of the manometer fluid level in the open arm is equal to the height where the manometer is connected to the tank is h =150 cm
The manometer reading is R
Generally at the point where the height of the open arm is equal to the height of the of the point connected to the tank ,
The pressure at the height of the both arms of the manometer corresponding to the base of the tank are equal
i.e [tex]P_1 = P_2[/tex]
Here [tex]P_1[/tex] is the pressure of the manometer at the point corresponding to the base of the tank and this is mathematically represented as
[tex] P_{atm} + P_1 = P_{atm} + P_t[/tex]
Here [tex]P_t[/tex] is the pressure due to the toluene level in the tank and in the arm of the manometer connected to the tank and this is mathematically represented as
[tex]P_t = \rho_t * g * h_i[/tex]
Here
[tex]\rho_t [/tex] is the density of toluene with value [tex]\rho_t = 867 kg/m^3 [/tex]
[tex]h_i[/tex] is the height of the connected arm above the point equivalent to the base of the tank , this mathematically represented as
[tex]h_i = d - h + R[/tex]
and [tex] P_2 [/tex] is the the pressure at the open arm of the manometer at the point equivalent to the base of the base of the tank and this is mathematically represented as
[tex] P_2 = \rho_f * g * h_f [/tex]
Here
[tex]\rho_f[/tex] is the density of the fluid in use , if it is water the density is
[tex]\rho_w = 1000 \ kg /m^3 [/tex]
and if it is mercury the density is
[tex]\rho_m = 13600 \ kg /m^3 [/tex]
[tex]h_f[/tex] is the height of the fluid in the open arm of the manometer from the point equivalent to the base of the tank which is equivalent the manometer reading R
So when the fluid is water we have
[tex] P_{atm} + \rho_t* g *(d - h + R) = P_{atm} + \rho_f * g * h_f[/tex]
=> [tex] \rho_t* (d - h + R) = \rho_w * h_f[/tex]
=> [tex] 867 (500 - 150 + R) = 1000 * R [/tex]
=> [tex] R = 2281.6 \ cm [/tex]
So when the fluid is mercury we have
[tex] \rho_t* (d - h + R) = \rho_m * h_f[/tex]
=> [tex] 867 (500 - 150 + R) = 13600 * R [/tex]
=> [tex] R = 23.83 \ cm [/tex]
The difference in the mercury reading for mercury due to the fact that they have different densities as we have seen in this calculation
So the best fluid to use is mercury because for water a slight change in toluene level will cause a large change in height .
can the answer to density be simplified
Answer: yes because all densities can be simplifed it just depends on the number.

A. intellectual and developmental disabilities and gifted children B. racism and its adverse effects on child development C. identity development among Asians living in the US D. academic development of children in desegregated schools
Answer:
B. racism and its adverse effects on child development
Explanation:
Dr. Mamie Clark studied the effects of segregation and racism on the self-esteem of black children.
According to Clark in O'Connell & Russo, 2001, p. 271; "To separate them from others of similar age and qualifications solely because of their race generates a feeling of inferiority as to their status in the community that may affect their hearts and minds in a way unlikely ever to be undone...."
One of her works titled "The Development of Consciousness of Self and the Emergence of Racial Identification in Negro Preschool Children" investigated the early level of conscious racial identity in black preschool children.

A runner is jogging in a straight line at a steady vr= 7.3 km/hr. When the runner is L= 2.1 km from the finish line, a bird begins flying straight from the runner to the finish line at vb= 29.2 km/hr (4 times as fast as the runner). When the bird reaches the finish line, it turns around and flies directly back to the runner After this first encounter, the bird then turns around and flies from the runner back to the finish line, turns around again and flies back to the runner. The bird repeats the back and forth trips until the runner reaches the finish line. How far does the bird travel from the beginning (including the distance traveled to the first encounter
Answer:
Explanation:
Time taken by jogger to travel the distance to finishing line = 2.1 / 7.3
= .28767 hr
Bird will keep flying for this time period
distance covered by bird = speed x time
= 29.2 x .28767 km
= 8.4 km .

Answer:
162
Explanation:
When the amplitude of the wave is 8 units, the corresponding energy of the wave is 128 units. Therefore, option C is correct.
What do you mean by an amplitude ?The term amplitude is defined as the maximum distance moved by a point on a vibrating body or wave calculated from its equilibrium position.
We have given,
first amplitude, A = 1, corresponding energy = 2
second amplitude, A = 2, corresponding energy = 8
The energy of a string at a given amplitude is calculated as follows;
E ∝ A²
Energy varies as the square of the change in amplitude.
If amplitude of one has energy of two
Amplitude of 2 (double of 1)
= ( 2 x 2 ) = 4 x 2
= 8 4 times the energy at amplitude of 1.
Then for 8 units of amplitude change
8 x 8 = 64 x 2
= 128
Thus, When the amplitude of the wave is 8 units, the corresponding energy of the wave is 128 units, option C is correct.
