The atmospheric P is greater than the P in the flask, since the Hg level is lacking down lower on the side open to the atmosphere. 

43.4 cm x (10 mm / 1 cm) = 435 mm 

the density of Hg is 13.6 / 0.791 = 17.2 times better than the liquid in the manometer. This means that 1 mmHg = 17.2 mm of manometer liquid. 

435 mm manometer liquid x (1 mm Hg / 17.2 mm manometer liquid) = 25.3 mm Hg 

The pressure in the flask is 755 - 25.3 = 729.7 mmHg. 

729.7 mmHg x (1 atm / 760 mmHg ) = 0.960 atm.

How long does a 50 kW pump motor have to run to pump 500 cubic meters of water from a 180m deep mine
Ghella [55]

Answer:

t = 17658 s = 294.3 min = 4.9 h

Explanation:

The general formula for power is:

P = \frac{W}{t}

where,

P = Power of the Motor = 50 KW = 50000 W

W = Work Done by Motor = Change in P.E of Water = mgh

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

m = mass of  water = ρV

h = depth of water = 180 m

ρ = density of water = 1000 kg/m³

V = Volume of Water = 500 m³

t = time taken = ?

Therefore,

P = \frac{mgh}{t}=\frac{\rho Vgh}{t}\\\\t = \frac{\rho Vgh}{P}\\\\t = \frac{(1000\ kg/m^3)(500\ m^3)(9.81\ m/s^2)(180\ m)}{50000\ W}\\\\

<u>t = 17658 s = 294.3 min = 4.9 h</u>

If an oscillating mass has a frequency of 1.25 Hz, it makes 100 oscillations in
KatRina [158]

Answer:

Time, t = 80 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

The frequency of the oscillating mass, f = 1.25 Hz

Number of oscillations, n = 100

We need to find the time in which it makes 100 oscillations. We know that the frequency of an object is number of oscillations per unit time. It is given by :

f=\dfrac{n}{t}

t=\dfrac{n}{f}

t=\dfrac{100}{1.25\ Hz}

t = 80 seconds

So, it will make 100 oscillations in 80 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

A pulley system has an efficiency of 74.2%. If you perform 200 J of work, how much useful work does the pulley perform?
kirill115 [55]

<span>Efficiency is the measure of how efficient a process is. It is used to assess the ability of a process in avoiding waste energy, materials, money and time in doing a desirable output. It is calculated as;

Efficiency = useful energy ouput / total energy input</span>

<span>
.742 = useful energy / 200 J
Useful energy = 148.4 J  <-----------OPTION B</span>
