Answer: A) 656 mm Hg

Explanation:

Pressure of the gas is defined as the force exerted by the particles on the walls of the container. It is expressed in various terms like 'mmHg', 'atm', 'kiloPascals' etc..

All these units of pressure are inter convertible.

We are given:

Pressure of the atmosphere = 742 torr = 742 mm Hg (1mmHg = 1 torr)

Pressure of mercury = 8.60 cm = 86.0 mm Hg  (1cm = 10 mm)

Thus pressure of the gas container = Pressure of the atmosphere - Pressure of mercury = (742 - 86.0) mm Hg= 656 mm Hg

Thus the pressure in a gas container that is connected to an closed-end U-tube manometer is 656 mm Hg.

How does the location and design of a house can help control temperature?
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

See detailed explanation.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since each place has specific conditions of temperature, humidity, altitude and others, it is important for the companies building houses to consider all of those factors because they could wear out or affect the customer's lifestyle as the years go by.

More specifically, for temperature, since customers tend to complain and concern about it, there are some strategies in order to control it:

- In terms of location, it is possible to locate the house near to threes covering the sun, build it in a higher altitude since the higher altitude the lower the environmental temperature or just look for a place wherein the temperature is almost constant, for instance, south America.

- In terms of design, it is possible to build the walls and roofs with isolating materials which very likely to keep the inner part of the house from high temperatures or just installing heaters inside them.

Of course, there may be more strategies in order to control it.

Best regards.
