Answer:

The reason is to allow the thermometer to respond relatively quickly, and relatively accurately. The glass contains the liquid being used in the thermometer, but if it is too thick, then it will not pass heat as quickly, and it will absorb some of the heat from whatever is being measured.

Hi there!

Assuming the track is frictionless:

$E_i = E_f\\\\PE = KE\\\\mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Cancel out the masses and rearrange to solve for velocity:

$gh = \frac{1}{2}v^{2}\\\\v = \sqrt{2gh}\\\\$

Plug in the given height and let g = 9.8 m/s²:

$v = \sqrt{2(9.8)(57)} = \boxed{33.42 m/s}$

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

$\Delta p = 90.7 kPa$

Explanation:

specific gravity of oil is $= \frac{\rho_{oil}}{\rho_w}$

$\rho_{oil} = 0.85*1000 = 850 kg/m3$

we know that

change in pressure for oil is given as

$\Delta p = \rho gh$

here density and h is for oil

$\Delta p = 850*5 *9.81 = 41,692.5 kPa$

change in pressure for WATER is given as

$\Delta p = \rho gh$

here density is for water and h is for water

$\Delta p = 1000*5 *9.81 = 49,050 kPa$

pressure change due to both is given as

$\Delta p = 41692.3 + 49050 = 90742.5 N/m2$

$\Delta p = 90.7 kPa$
