How does pressure affect surface tension

Physics
1 answer:
tatyana61 [14]3 years ago
3 0

the effect of pressure on surface tension can be attributed in part to absorption of gas at the surface of the liquid and in part to an intrinsic decrease in density of the liquid in the neighborhood of the surface.

In the case of liquids , Owing to contact forces between the edge of the surface and the vessel, the surface acquires a curvature, and if the liquid rises up at the edges where it meets the vessel, the pressure will be less in the liquid than in the air, for points just below and just above the surface. The vessel exerts an upward force on the liquid. This is simply a matter of looking at the directions of forces acting, knowing that the surface is under tension.

A generator contains a coil that spins to produce an electric current. How is energy transformed by using a generator
LiRa [457]

<u>Answer </u>

Mechanical energy ⇒ Electric energy

<u>Explanation </u>

A generator is used to produce electric energy. When he coils are made to rotate/spin, is makes the mechanical part. This coils rotates inside a magnetic fields inducing current in the coils. When current starts flowing in the coils, it forms the electrical part.

So, on the generator the energy changes are from mechanical to electrical energy.

Explain the purpose of a three-valve manifold in closed tank level measurement installations.
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

A three valve manifold serves to protect the capsule from being exposed to pressures above the acceptable range and also enables transmitter isolation from the loop of the process

In closed tank level measurement installations the pressure of the gas if presence of gas on top of the liquid will need to be taken account by the use of a reference connection from the level transmitter to the tank top. The valve used in pressure equalization is kept close when the process system is operating normally.

In the event that the transmitter is removed or put into service, it is necessary to ensure that the gas phase which is at the higher pressure is does not over-range the Differential Pressure DP capsule

A 3kg horizontal disk of radius 0.2m rotates about its center with an angular velocity of 50rad/s. The edge of the horizontal di
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

From the information given:

The angular speed for the block \omega = 50 \ rad/s

Disk radius (r) = 0.2 m

The block Initial velocity is:

v = r \omega \\ \\  v = (0.2  \times 50) \\ \\  v= 10 \ m/s

Change in the block's angular speed is:

\Delta _{\omega} = \omega - 0 \\ \\ = 50 \ rad/s

However, on the disk, moment of inertIa is:

I= mr^2 \\ \\ I = (3 \times 0.2^2) \\ \\ I = 0.12 \ kgm^2

The time t = 10s

∴

Frictional torques by the wall on the disk is:

T = I \times (\dfrac{\Delta_{\omega}}{t}) \\ \\ = 0.12 \times (\dfrac{50}{10})  \\ \\ =0.6 \ N.m

Finally, the frictional force is calculated as:

F = \dfrac{T}r{}

F= \dfrac{0.6}{0.2} \\ \\ F = 3N
