The mercury thermometer operates on the principle of dilation.

<h3>What is the working principle of a mercury thermometer?</h3>

Like all liquids, mercury expands as it is heated, so it moves along the thermometer tube, determining the temperature. Its expansion rate is calibrated on the glass scale, expansion is linear and can be accurately calibrated.

Mercury allows it to be used in a thermometer by its liquid expansion fast enough to measure something so that it still maintains an accurate measurement.

A person wants to determine the spring constant of an exercise stretch cord. He pulls the cord with a force probe that exerts a
Burka [1]

Answer:

350 N/m

Explanation:

If we are assuming the stretch does not exceed the elastic range of the material, then by Hooke's law the spring constant of the cord is simply the ratio between the force 70N acting on the cord to stretch 20cm or 0.2m

k = 70 / 0.2 = 350 N/m

The spring constant is 350 N/m

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

her acceleration is 1 m/sec

Explanation:

The following information is given in the question

The initial velocity is 5 m/s

After 10 seconds, she would be moved at 15 m/s

We need to find the acceleration

As we know that

Acceleration = Change in speed ÷ time

Acceleration = (15 - 5) ÷ (10)

= 1 m/sec

Hence, her acceleration is 1 m/sec

The same would be considered
