Explanation:

Step1

Absolute pressure is the pressure above zero level of the pressure. Absolute pressure is considering atmospheric pressure in it. Absolute pressure is always positive. There is no negative absolute pressure.

The expression for absolute pressure is given as follows:

$P_{ab}=P_{g}+P_{atm}$

Here, $P_{ab}$ is absolute pressure, $P_{g}$ is gauge pressure and $P_{atm}$ is atmospheric pressure.

Step2

Gauge pressure is the pressure that measure above atmospheric pressure. It is not considering atmospheric pressure. It can be negative called vacuum or negative gauge pressure. Gauge pressure used to simplify the pressure equation for fluid analysis.

If electrons have a path to follow, they will flow to a area with charge

Natali [406]

Answer:

Hello there, the question is not complete, but not to worry you can check the explanation section to check how you can solve a similar question or to be be able to solve the exact question directly.

Explanation:

The flow of electrons is what is known or refer to as Current. When energy is used on a nuclei, the electrons are forced to move from one position to the other. The direction of flow of electron is from the negative terminal which then moves to the positive terminal.

Therefore, it can be said that the positive charge determines the direction of electron flow. The starting point is the negative terminal, in which it will now move in the direction in which the positive terminal is.

You have measured the force of a hammer hitting a nail by using a new sensor. The result is 60 million dynes is this reasonable

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Yes, it is Reasonable.

Explanation:

The problem states that by using a new sensor, the result is 60 million dynes.

Converting the force into Newtons, by using the formula,

1 newton = 10⁵ dynes,

i.e, 1 million dynes = 10 newtons.

we get,

60 million dynes = 60 x 10 newtons = 600 newtons.

The result using a new sensor is reasonable because atmosphere exerts a force of about 10 newtons on us and 600 newtons is just 60 times of it.

Thus 600 N can be applied by the hammer on the nail and it is reasonable.
