In 1656, the Burgmeister (mayor) of the town of Magdeburg, Germany, Otto Von Guericke, carried out a dramatic demonstration of t

he effect resulting from evacuating air from a container. It is the basis for this problem. Two steel hemispheres of radius 0.430 m (1.41 feet) with a rubber seal in between are placed together and air pumped out so that the pressure inside is 15.00 millibar. The atmospheric pressure outside is 940 millibar.
1. Calculate the force required to pull the two hemispheres apart. [Note: 1 millibar=100 N/m2. One atmosphere is 1013 millibar = 1.013×105 N/m2 ]
2. Two equal teams of horses, are attached to the hemispheres to pull it apart. If each horse can pull with a force of 1450N (i.e., about 326 lbs), what is the minimum number of horses required?

The force required to pull the two hemispheres is 46622.72N

<h3>Calculation and Parameters</h3>

( Note: 1 millibar=100 N/m2. One atmosphere is 1013 millibar = 1.013×105 N/m2 ]

The contact area between the hemispheres is (pi x 0.400^2) = 0.5024m^2.

Pressure difference = (940 - 12)

= 928 millibars.

(928 x 100)

= 92,800N/m^2.

Therefore, the required force to pull the two hemispheres is

(92800 x 0.5024)

= 46622.72N.

PLS HELP ME OUT!!
MaRussiya [10]
In order to solve this problem, we must first find out the value of each line on the number line. However, we can make this problem more simple by ignoring every interval except for the ones between 0 and 6. There are three total intervals in between 0 and 6 (including 6 and excluding 0). Therefore, we can do 6/2, and get an interval value of 2. This means that each line adds a value of 2. Since the car is only one line past zero, we only have to add one value of 2. Since 0 + 2 = 2, our final answer is C. 2.

Hope this helps!

What are comets made of?
qaws [65]
<h2>Comets are made of Chunks of rock, gas, Ice, and dust. The Answer is A and C.</h2>

Explanation:

Comets is one of the main types of space rocks. Recent researchers has termed Comets as 'dirty snowballs' of space, that contains ice, rock, gas and dust. The solid center of the comet is less than 10 kilometers across.

Comets are believed to have originated beyond Neptune and Pluto. It is called the Oort Cloud that surrounds the solar system.

It carries carbon dioxide, methane, ammonia, and many more gases. According to Astronomers, comets are assumed to be the leftovers of the material that was initially the part of solar system about billion years ago.
