ankoles [38]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Pressure due to fluid is directly proportional to the depth of fluid, density of the fluid and the value of acceleration due to gravity.

P = h d g

Where, h is the depth, d be the density and g be the acceleration due to gravity.

If we talk about teh atmospheric pressure, the density of air goes on decreasing as we go up and up. o we cannot say that it is directly depends only on the depth of air, it also depends on the changing density of air.

It takes 20s for 3x10^6 electrons to flow through a wire ,what is the current?
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The variables we know and are given are:

time, t = 20s

Charge, Q = 3x1-^-6 electrons, which is just 3x10^-6C (C stands for Coulombs, which is the unit for Charge)

We need to find the current, I, and since we know Q and t we can substitute these values into the given equation:

I=Q/t (which if you look at what the RHS is saying, its Charge over time, or more literally means the amount of charge passing a point over a period of time)

If we substitute these values, we will get I as:

I = Q / t

I = 3x10^-6 / 20

I = 1.5x10^-7 A

Hope this helps!

What characteristics are shared by both heating and cooling curves? choose 4
Luda [366]

The characteristics shared by both heating and cooling curves is that phases changes when the temperature stays the same.

<h3>What is heating and cooling?</h3>

Heating is the process by which the temperature of a place or substances or object is increased.

Cooling Is the process of lowering the temperature of a substance or object by using conditioners or by freezing .

Therefore, The characteristics shared by both heating and cooling curves is that phases changes when the temperature stays the same.

A system expands from a volume of 1.00 l to 2.00 l against a constant external pressure of 1.00 atm. what is the work (w) done b
stepan [7]
The work done by a system kept at constant pressure is given by:
W=p \Delta V = p (V_f - V_i)
where
p is the pressure
V_f is the final volume
V_i is the initial volume

If we plug the numbers given by the problem into this equation, we find
W=p (V_f -V_i)=(1.00 atm)(2.00 L-1.00 L)=1.00 L\cdot atm

And since 1 atm \cdot L = 101.3 J, we have that the work done is
W= 1.00 atm \cdot L = 101.3 J
