Answer:

0.368 cm

Explanation:

x = distance by which the mercury rise

d = depth of the water = 10 cm = 0.10 m

ρ = density of water = 1000 kgm⁻³

ρ' = density of mercury = 13600 kgm⁻³

P₀ = atmospheric pressure

Using equilibrium of pressure on both side

P₀ + ρ g d = P₀ + ρ' g (2x)

(1000) (0.10) = (13600) (2x)

x = 0.00368 m

x = 0.368 cm

If an electric current of 8.50 A flows for 3.75 hours through an electrolytic cell containing copper-sulfate (CuSO4) solution, t
muminat

Answer:

75.5g

Explanation:

From the ionic equation, we can write

CU^{2+}+SO^{2-}_{4}\\

next we find the number of charge

Note Q=it

for i=8.5A, t=3.75 to secs 3.75*60*60=13500secs

hence

Q=8.5*13500\\Q=114750C

Since one faraday represent one mole of electron which equal 96500C

Hence the number of mole produced by 114750C is

114750/96500=1.2mol

The mass of copper produced is

mol=\frac{mass}{molar mass} \\mass=mole*molar mass\\mass=1.2*63.5\\mass=75.5g

Hence the amount of copper produced is 75.5g

The trade winds are tropical winds that blow toward the Equator. Choose the statement that best explains why the trade winds blo
AveGali [126]

The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by your question is the fourth option or letter D. Trade winds blow towards the equator because t<span>he Equator receives the most heat energy.

</span>The surface air that flows from these subtropical high-pressure belts toward the Equator is deflected toward the west in both hemispheres by the Coriolis effect. These winds blow<span> predominantly from the northeast in the Northern Hemisphere and from the southeast in the Southern Hemisphere.

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

They don't have an Astronomy Section and I believe that this falls the closest to Physics
Ksenya-84 [330]
The only thing we know of so far that can shift light to longer wavelengths is the "Doppler" effect. If the source and the observer are moving apart, then the observer sees wavelengths that are longer than they should be. If the source and the observer are moving toward each other, then the observer sees wavelengths that are shorter than they should be. It works for ANY wave ... sound, light, water etc. The trick is to know what the wavelength SHOULD be. If you know that, then you can tell whether you and the source are moving together or apart, and you can even tell how fast. If the lines in a star"s spectrum are at wavelengths that are too long, then from everything we know right now, the star and Earth are moving apart.
