Answer:
1. 6.672 kPa
2. 49.05 mm of mercury
Explanation:
h = 6400 m
Absolute pressure, p = 46 kPa = 46000 Pa
density of air, d = 0.823 kg/m^3
density of mercury, D = 13600 kg/m^3
(a) Absolute pressure = Atmospheric pressure + pressure due to height
46000 = Atmospheric pressure + h x d x g
Atmospheric pressure = 46000 - 6400 x 0.823 x 10 = 6672 Pa = 6.672 kPa
(b) To convert the pressure into mercury pressure
Atmospheric pressure = H x D x g
Where, H is the height of mercury, D be the density of mercury, g be the acceleration due to gravity
6672 = H x 13600 x 10
H = 0.04905 m
H = 49.05 mm of mercury
It takes about 27.32 days
Answer:
D. because the light is reflected back into the fiber along its sides
Explanation:
The fiber is constructed in a way that the light is bent/reflected/refracted toward the center core of glass. So, from the center core, there is a layer above it that has a different propagation than the core, and above that the same thing. To give you a real world visual example, if you look down in a pool of water, then stick a straight stick into it, you see that the straight stick appears to bend. That is what is happening to the light as it travels through a different medium (air to water). This same effect is incorporated in the fiber optic cable construction.
Explanation:
Acceleration is change in velocity over change in time:
a = Δv / Δt
a = (10 m/s - 25 m/s) / (240 s - 0 s)
a = -0.0625 m/s²
So the car decelerates at 0.0625 m/s².
Answer:
Explanation:
Given that,
Angular speed of a skater,
The moment of inertia of the skater, I = 0.6 kg-m²
We need to find the angular momentum of the skater. The formula for the angular momentum of the skater is given by :
Substitute all the values,
So, its angular momentum is equal to .
