The weight of air measured in units of force per area is called air pressure.

Answer:

B. air pressure

Explanation:

The definition of pressure is that it is a force applied to an area.

P=\frac{F}{A}

Because weight is a force (a force is mass multiplied by acceleration, and weight is the product of the mass of an object multiplied by the acceleration of gravity, thus weight is a force), the measurement of the weight of the air over area is the air pressure.

The correct answe is B.

Oscilloscopes have parallel metal plates inside them to deflect the electron beam. These plates are called the deflecting plates
alexdok [17]

Answer:

1.6 pF

Explanation:

The capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor in air is given by:

C=\frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}

where

\epsilon_0 is the vacuum permittivity

A is the area of each plate

d is the separation between the plates

In this problem we have:

- Separation between the plates: d = 5.00 mm = 0.005 m

- Area of the plates: A = 3.00 cm \cdot 3.00 cm = 9.00 cm^2 = 9\cdot 10^{-4}m^2

Therefore, the capacitance is

C=\frac{(8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F/m)(9\cdot 10^{-4} m^2)}{0.005 m}=1.6\cdot 10^{-12} F=1.6 pF

Falling objects drop with an average acceleration of 9.8 m/s2. An arrow is shot with a velocity of 11.76 m/s straight down from
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

3.8 secs

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2

Initial velocity, u = 11.76 m/s

Final velocity, v = 49 m/s

Using one of Newton's equations of linear motion, we have that:

v = u + gt

where t = time of flight of arrow

The sign is positive because the arrow is moving downward, in the same direction as gravitational force.

Therefore:

49 = 11.76 + 9.8*t\\\\\\\49 - 11.76 = 9.8t\\\\=> 9.8t = 37.24\\\\\\t = \frac{37.24}{9.8} \\\\\\t = 3.8 secs

The arrow was in flight for 3.8 secs
