Mercury in a box have density is 30000kg/m^3 height is 20 dm. Determine the pressure of Mercury .​
Musya8 [376]

Answer:The pressure of Mercury = 588,600Pa

Explanation:

The pressure of Mercury is given as

p=h x ρ x g

Where h =height= 20 dm

changing to meters

10 decimeters (dm) =1 meter

20dm  =2 meter, 2m

ρ  is the density =30000-kg/m³

g , gravity = 9.81-m/s²  

Pressure =  2.0m x 30000-kg/m³ x 9.81-m/s²

588,600 kg.m/  s²/m² =588,600 N/m²

The pressure of Mercury=588,600Pa

gregori [183]

Answer:

Until early 1970's the Turkish Straits were known as a rich and productive marine area. The Straits also used to play an important role as a biological corridor between the Mediterranean and the Black Sea, and acted as an acclimatization zone for the Mediterranean species.

The Tigris and Euphrates rivers provided Mesopotamia with enough fresh water and fertile soil to allow ancient people to develop irrigation and grow supplies surplus.

The role the Tigris and Euphrates river played in the development of civilization is that they enriched the soil and helped farmers grow supplies surpluses.

Which statement best descibes the overall message conveyed in this political cartoon? Climate change is something the Earth can
Inessa05 [86]

The basic idea presented in this political cartoon is that if we <u>do not </u>handle global climate change, the consequences could be disastrous.

<h3>What happens if we don't address climate change?</h3>

Climate Change and Its Consequences are more frequent wildfires, prolonged drought periods in some locations, and an increase in the number, duration, and severity of tropical storms are all possible future implications of global climate change.

If we do nothing, heat waves will become more common and severe over the planet, harming hundreds of millions—if not billions—of people.

Therefore, option (b) or (ii) is the correct answer.

As the question seems to be incomplete with missing cartoon images, the possible answer is given. The political cartoon by Andy Singer is attached below for reference.
