Answer:
The Hydrostatic force is 
The location of pressure center is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The height of the gate is 
The weight of the gate is 
The height of the water is 
The density of water is 
Note used 
for height of water and height of gate immersed by water since both have the same value
The area of the gate immersed in water is mathematically represented as
substituting values
The hydrostatic force is mathematically represented as
Where
So
The center of pressure is mathematically represented as
Where 
is the moment of inertia of the gate which mathematically represented as
The is the height of gate immersed in water
Thus
Answer:
Essentials. A battery is a device that stores chemical energy and converts it to electrical energy. The chemical reactions in a battery involve the flow of electrons from one material (electrode) to another, through an external circuit. The flow of electrons provides an electric current that can be used to do work.
Answer:
19 N
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Pressure (P) = 1.9 kPa
Length (L) = 10 cm
Force (F) =?
Next, we shall convert 1.9 KPa to N/m². This can be obtained as follow:
1 KPa = 1000 N/m²
Therefore,
1.9 KPa = 1.9 KPa × 1000 N/m² / 1 KPa
1.9 KPa = 1900 N/m²
Thus, 1.9 KPa is equivalent to 1900 N/m².
Next, we shall convert 10 cm to m. This can be obtained as follow:
100 cm = 1 m
Therefore,
10 cm = 10 cm × 1 m / 100 cm
10 cm = 0.1 m
Thus, 10 cm is equivalent to 0.1 m
Next, we shall determine the area of the square. This can be obtained as follow:
Length (L) = 0.1 m
Area of square (A) =?
A = L²
A = 0.1²
A = 0.01 m²
Thus, the area of the square is 0.01 m².
Finally, we shall determine the force that must be exerted on the sensor in order for it to turn red. This can be obtained as follow:
Pressure (P) = 1900 N/m²
Area (A) = 0.01 m²
Force (F) =?
P = F/A
1900 = F / 0.01
Cross multiply
F = 1900 × 0.01
F = 19 N
Therefore, a force of 19 N must be exerted on the sensor in order for it to turn red.
Energy to lift something =
(mass of the object) x (gravity) x (height of the lift).
BUT ...
This simple formula only works if you use the right units.
Mass . . . kilograms
Gravity . . . meters/second²
Height . . . meters
For this question . . .
Mass = 55 megagram = 5.5 x 10⁷ grams = 5.5 x 10⁴ kilograms
Gravity (on Earth) = 9.8 m/second²
Height = 500 cm = 5.0 meters
So we have ...
Energy = (5.5 x 10⁴ kilogram) x (9.8 m/s²) x (5 m)
= 2,696,925 joules .
That's quite a large amount of energy ... equivalent to
straining at the rate of 1 horsepower for almost exactly an
hour, or burning a 100 watt light bulb for about 7-1/2 hours.
The reason is the large mass that's being lifted.
On Earth, that much mass weighs about 61 tons.
