A brick 25cm long ,9cm wide 5cm thick has a mass of 1000g determine the greatest pressure that can be exerted by the brick on a
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

<em>The greatest pressure is 2178 Pa</em>

Explanation:

<u>Pressure</u>

It's the force applied perpendicular to the surface of an object per unit area over which the force is distributed.

If F is the force applied and A is the surface area, the pressure is calculated as:

\displaystyle P=\frac{F}{A}

The brick has dimensions of 25 cm by 9 cm by 5 cm. There are three possible areas of contact:

A_1=25*9 = 225 cm^2=0.0225\ m^2

A_2=25*5= 125 cm^2=0.0125\ m^2

A_3=9*5= 45 cm^2=0.0045\ m^2

The  brick has a mass of m=1000 g = 1 Kg and exerts a force equal to its weight when placed on a flat surface, thus:

F = m.g = 1 * 9.8 = 9.8 N

The greatest possible pressure will occur when the area is the least possible (0.0045\ m^2), since the pressure and the area are inversely proportional, thus:

\displaystyle P_{max}=\frac{9.8}{0.0045}

\displaystyle P_{max}=2178 \ Pa

The greatest pressure is 2178 Pa

pshichka [43]

Answer:

Tech A is right.

Explanation:

Its the ability of quartz crystal that if we apply a mechanical stress on them by an applied force then they can produce the electricity or voltage. This phenomenon of producing electricity by squeezing a crystal is termed as piezoelectricity or a piezoelectric effect.

The circumference of the earth is 40,000 km. The distance from the
Finger [1]

Answer:

The distance from the North Pole to the equator is 1*10^{7}m.

Explanation:

Circumference of Earth = 40,000 km    ......................(1)

Distance from the North Pole to the Equator is =  1/4th of the Circumference of Earth  ......................  (2)

Let Distance from the North Pole to the Equator be  d ,

the equation formed will be ,

d = 1/4 * Circumference of Earth       ........(3)......... ( from equation 1 )

put the value of Circumference of Earth in equation (3),

d = 1/4 * 40,000  km

d = 10,000 km

converting km to m ,

d = 10,000 * 10^{3} m

d =  1 * 10^{7} m

The distance from the North Pole to the equator is 1*10^{7}m.

The reflective quality of a surface is known as its
Brut [27]
<h2>Answer: Albedo </h2>

The <u>albedo</u> is an amount that expresses the percentage of radiation a surface reflects with respect to the incident radiation.

In other words:

This amount allows us to know the level of radiation that <u>reflects</u> a surface compared to the total <u>radiation it receives</u>.

According to this, light surfaces such as snow covered ground or white sand will have a higher albedo than dark surfaces such as carbon covered ground. It is also important to note, the albedo will be higher on glossy surfaces than on matte surfaces.

It should be noted that the albedo of the Earth is on average about 37\%, which means that part of the radiation received by the Sun is absorbed and another part reflected back to space.
