<u>Answer</u>:  Option C

<em>Pressure is a force shared over an area</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Pressure is the result of a force shared over an area. Pressure is explained as the physical force applied on the body.

The applied force is perpendicular to surface of body per unit area.

The symbol used for pressure is P.

<u><em>Formula:</em></u>

P=F/A

<u><em>Where:</em></u>

Pis the pressure,

F is the magnitude of the normal force,

A is area of the surface.

<u><em>The types of Pressures:</em></u>

  • Absolute pressure
  • Atmospheric pressure
  • Differential pressure
  • Gauge pressure

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

5.01 J

Explanation:

Info given:

mass (m) = 0.0780kg

height (h) = 5.36m

velocity (v) = 4.84 m/s

gravity (g) = 9.81m/s^2

1. First, solve for Kinetic energy (KE)

KE = 1/2mv^2

1/2(0.0780kg)(4.84m/s)^2 = 0.91 J

so KE = 0.91 J

2. Next, solve for Potential energy (PE)

PE = mgh

(0.0780kg)(9.81m/s^2)(5.36m) = 4.10 J

so PE = 4.10 J

3. Mechanical Energy , E = KE + PE

Plug in values for KE and PE

KE + PE = 0.91J + 4.10 J = 5.01 J

Sindrei [870]
The answer that best fits the blank is the term WAXING. The moon is waxing whenever it reaches to the period that its phases are transitioning from new to full. The answer is the first option. This is when it is more that half is illuminated. Hope this helps.

A bobsled has a momentum of 3000 kg•m/s to the east. After the rider gives it a push, its momentum increases to 5500 kg•m/s to t
Archy [21]
Impulse, denoted as J, is defined by the change in momentum. Since we have our initial and our final, we can solve for the change in momentum.

J = p_{f} - p_{0} = 5500 - 3000 = 2500&#10;&#10;J = 2500 kg*m/s

Answer:

500000N/m²

5250N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Depth(H) = 50m

Density of water  = 1000kg/m³

Acceleration of free fall  = 10m/s

Unknown:

Pressure the water exerts on the diver = ?

Solution:

Pressure is the force per unit area on a body. In fluids, pressure is the product of density, gravity and height

  Pressure in fluids  = Density x acceleration due to gravity x height

Input the variables and solve;

    Pressure in fluids  = 1000 x 10 x 50  = 500000N/m²

B.

width of window = 150mm

height of window = 70mm

Force water exerts on the window = ?

To solve this problem;

         Pressure  = \frac{Force}{Area}

Area of the window = width x height  = 150 x 10⁻³ x 70 x 10⁻³

                                                           = 1.05 x 10 ⁻²m²

Force  = pressure x area

Input the variables;

             = 500000N/m²   x  1.05 x 10 ⁻²m²

             = 5250N
