The atmospheric pressure on the top of the Engineering Sciences Building (ESB) is 97.6 kPa, while that in Room G39-ESB (ground f

loor) is 98.2 kPa.
Determine the height of the building if the air density is assumed to be independent of the height, being 1.16 kg/m³, while the acceleration of gravity is 9.81 N/kg.

Answer:

Δ h = 52.78 m

Explanation:

given,

Atmospheric pressure at the top of building = 97.6 kPa

Atmospheric pressure at the bottom of building = 98.2 kPa

Density of air = 1.16 kg/m³

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

height of the building = ?

We know,

Δ P = ρ g Δ h

(98.2-97.6) x 10³ = 1.16 x 9.8 x Δ h

11.368 Δ h = 600

Δ h = 52.78 m

Hence, the height of the building is equal to 52.78 m.

An electric dipole consists of a particle with a charge of 6 x 10–6 c at the origin and a particle with a charge of –6 x 10–6 c
mote1985 [20]

An electric dipole consists of a particle with a charge of 6 x 10⁻⁶ c at the origin and a particle with a charge of –6 x 10⁻⁶ c on the x axis at x = 3 x 10⁻³ m. Its dipole moment is 18 x 10⁻⁹ Cm

Dipole moment of a dipole is dependent on the charge of the dipole and the distance between the two charges.

Electric Dipole consists of two charges which are equal and opposite in charge i.e. positive and negative charges.

Given,

Dipole moment, p = ?

Charge, q = 6 x 10⁻⁶C

Distance between charges, d = 3 x 10⁻³ m

Dipole moment (p) is given by:

p = charge x distance between the two charges

p = 6 x 10⁻⁶ x 3 x 10⁻³ Cm

p = 18 x 10⁻⁹ Cm

The dipole moment for the given charge configuration is 18 x 10⁻⁹ Cm

Light waves that cross from an air medium to a water medium will
il63 [147K]

C. change length and direction

Explanation:

The density of the material in which the light wave is travelling affects the speed of the wave. Different materials have different densities and they effect differently light waves which travel through them. Light waves may change direction at the boundary between two transparent materials, depending on material density. Density also impacts the speed of light. The denser the material, the slower light travels through it. The wavelength also decreases as light travels through the denser medium.

HELP PLEASE!!!
Leya [2.2K]

For the first one 320

second

1200W

Data

R = 12 Ω ∆V = 120V I =? P =?

Solution:

According to Ohm’s law,

∆V = I R

I = ∆V / R  

= 120 / 12  

= 10 A

Power P = I ∆V  

= 10 x 120  

= 1200 W

Third

∆V = 120 V P = 60 W I =? R =?

Use the formula, P = I ∆V

I = P / ∆V = 60 / 120 = 0.5 A

∆V = I R

R = ∆V / I = 120 / 0.5 = 240 Ω

What creates an ionic bond?
natta225 [31]
Ionic bonding is the bonding between a positive metal with a negative nonmetal (metals are always positive while non metals are opposite). The meeting of a metal with a non metal creates an ionic bond.

In practice, if a voltmeter was connected across any combination of the terminals, the potential difference would be less than w
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

This difference is kept to a minimum because the resistance in transformers is a few tens of ohms and the resistance of modern voltmeters is of the order of MΩ.

Explanation:

A voltmeter is built by a galvanometer and a resistance in series, this set is connected in parallel to the resistance where the voltage is to be measured, therefore the voltage is divided between the voltmeter and the element to be measured, consequently the measured voltage It is less than the calculated one, since for them the resistance of the voltmeter is assumed infinite.

This difference is kept to a minimum because the resistance in transformers is a few tens of ohms and the resistance of modern voltmeters is of the order of MΩ.
