Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

When a Mercury in a glass thermometer is put on flames the Glass bulb because of high coefficient of expansion expands and the mercury inside it descends( appears to descend). As soon as the heated reaches mercury its expands faster than the glass and hence its level rises in the glass( α for mercury is greater than α for glass , α here is coefficient of thermal expansion)

Mercury expands when heat comes into contact with it. at first, the thermometer touches the flame and gains heat, expanding. hence, more space inside the thermometer. the mercury has more space, so descends. finally, the heat passes through the glass after a while, as glass is a poor conductor of heat. the mercury gains heat and expands, rising.
hope this helps!

Calculate the net force on the right charge due to the other two. Enter a positive value if the force is directed to the right a
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

Answer:

A. - 0.017N. It acts to the left.

B. - 0.043N. It acts to the left.

C. 0.060N. It acts to the right.

Explanation:

A. For the +65μC charge, we consider it to be the origin. Hence, the two other charges are on the +x axis.

The net coulombs force on the charge is

F = [KQ(1)Q(2)]/(r^2) + [KQ(1)Q(3)]/(r^2)

Where K = Coloumbs constant =

Q(1) = charge on the leftmost side.

Q(2) = charge in the middle.

Q(3) = charge on the rightmost side.

F = [(8.988 × 10^9)×(65×10^-6)×(48×10^-6)]/(40^2) + [(8.988 × 10^9)×(-95×10^-6)×(65×10^-6)]/(40^2)

F = 0.01753 - 0.03469

F = -0.017N

It has a negative sign, hence, it acts to the left.

B. For the +48μC charge, we consider it to be the origin. Hence, the leftmost charge is on the - x axis and the rightmost charge is on the +x axis.

The net coulombs force on the charge is

F = [-KQ(1)Q(3)]/(r^2) + [KQ(2)Q(3)]/(r^2)

F = [-(8.988×10^9)×(65×10^-6)×(48×10^-6)]/(40^2) + [(8.988 × 10^9)×(48×10^-6)×(-95×10^-6)]/(40^2)

F = -0.017 - 0.02562

F = - 0.043N

It has a negative sign, hence, it acts to the left.

C. For the -95μC charge, we consider it to be the origin. Hence, the two other charges are on the - x axis.

The net coulombs force on the charge is

F = [-KQ(1)Q(3)]/(r^2) - [KQ(2)Q(3)]/(r^2)

F = [-(8.988×10^9)×(65×10^-6)×(-95×10^-6)]/(40^2) - [(8.988 × 10^9)×(48×10^-6)×(-95×10^-6)]/(40^2)

F = +0.03469 + 0.02562

F = +0.060N

It has a positive sign, hence, it acts to the right.

If the maximum tension in the simulation is 10.0 N, what is the linear mass density (m/L) of the string
vovikov84 [41]

Complete Question

The speed of a transverse wave on a string of length L and mass m under T is given by the formula

     v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{(m/l)}}

If the maximum tension in the simulation is 10.0 N, what is the linear mass density (m/L) of the string

Answer:

(m/l)=\frac{10}{V^2}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Speed of a transverse wave given by

v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{(m/l)}}

Maximum Tension is T=10.0N

Generally making (m/l) subject from the equation mathematically we have

v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{(m/l)}}

v^2=\frac{T}{(m/l)}

(m/l)=\frac{T}{V^2}

(m/l)=\frac{10}{V^2}

Therefore the Linear mass in terms of Velocity is given by

(m/l)=\frac{10}{V^2}

Section 1: Experimental Overview
Luden [163]

Answer:

1-state what the lab is about, that is, what scientific concept (theory, principle, procedure, etc.) you are supposed to be learning about by doing the lab. You should do this briefly, in a sentence or two. If you are having trouble writing the opening sentence of the report, you can try something like: "This laboratory experiment focuses on X…"; "This lab is designed to help students learn about, observe, or investigate, X…." Or begin with a definition of the scientific concept: "X is a theory that…."

2-give the necessary background for the scientific concept by telling what you know about it (the main references you can use are the lab manual, the textbook, lecture notes, and other sources recommended by the lab manual or lab instructor; in more advanced labs you may also be expected to cite the findings of previous scientific studies related to the lab). In relatively simple labs you can do this in a paragraph following the initial statement of the learning context. But in more complex labs, the background may require more paragraphs.
