Answer:

0.8 m

Explanation:

For "6 N" force :

F = magnitude of the force = 6 N

r = moment arm = 0.4 m

Torque due to "6 N" force is given as

τ = r F

τ = (0.4) (6)

τ = 2.4 Nm

For " 15 N" force :

F' = magnitude of the force = 15 N

r' = moment arm = ?

τ' = Torque = 5 τ = 5 x 2.4 = 12 Nm

Torque due to "15 N" force is given as

τ' = r' F'

12 = r' (15)

r' = 0.8 m

So the moment arm for "15 N" force is 0.8 m

One pot has a water height of 8cm. Calculate the water pressure at the bottom of the pot. They give g = 10N / kg p = 1000kg / m3
natima [27]

Answer:

P = 800 Pa

Explanation:

The pressure of water at the bottom of the pot can be given by the following formula:

P = \rho g h

where,

P = Pressure at the bottom of the pot = ?

ρ = density = 1000 kg/m³

h = height of water = 8 cm = 0.08 m

Therefore,

P = (1000\ kg/m^3)(10\ m/s^2)(0.08\ m)

<u>P = 800 Pa </u>

Describe how wet and dry barometers work
siniylev [52]

Answer: Wet barometer - The tool works by measuring atmospheric pressure to predict incoming weather. Since the glass is only filled halfway with water, the other half is exposed to the atmosphere. When the outdoor atmospheric pressure rises, the pressure in the glass decreases, and causes the water to move down the spout.

Dry barometer - A Torricellian barometer (sometimes called a mercury barometer) is an inverted (upside-down) glass tube standing in a bath of mercury. Air pressure pushes down on the surface of the mercury, making some rise up the tube. The greater the air pressure, the higher the mercury rises.

I hope this helps!

The earth rotates once per day about its axis. where would you have to stand in order to have the smallest tangential speed?
Yuliya22 [10]
<span>The earth as a whole rotates with a fixed angular velocity. Therefore, you need to be at the rotation axis to have the smallest tangential speed. This would be at the north or south pole.</span>
