The tonga trench in the pacific ocean is 36,000 feet deep. assuming that sea water has an average density of 1.04 g/cm3, calcula
MakcuM [25]
1110 atm    

Let's start by calculating how many cm deep is 36,000 feet. 

 36000 ft * 12 in/ft * 2.54 cm/in = 1097280 cm   

 Now calculate how much a column of water 1 cm square and that tall would mass. 

 1097280 cm * 1.04 g/cm^3 = 1141171.2 g/cm^2   

 We now have a number using g/cm^2 as it's unit and we desire a unit of Pascals ( kg/(m*s^2) ).  

 It's pretty obvious how to convert from g to kg. But going from cm^2 to m is problematical. Additionally, the s^2 value is also a problem since nothing in the value has seconds as an unit. This indicates that a value has been omitted. We need something with a s^2 term and an additional length term. And what pops into mind is gravitational acceleration which is m/s^2. So let's multiply that in after getting that cm^2 term into m^2 and the g term into kg.   

 1141171.2 g/cm^2 / 1000 g/kg * 100 cm/m * 100 cm/m = 11411712 kg/m^2 

 11411712 kg/m^2 * 9.8 m/s^2 = 111834777.6 kg/(m*s^2) = 111834777.6 Pascals   

 Now to convert to atm 

 111834777.6 Pa / 1.01x10^5 Pa/atm = 1107.2750 atm   

 Now we gotta add in the 1 atm that the atmosphere actually provides (but if you look closely, you'll realize that it won't affect the final result). 

 1107.274 atm + 1 atm = 1108.274 atm   

 And finally, round to 3 significant figures since that's the accuracy of our data, giving 1110 atm.

A bird flies overhead from where you stand at an altitude of 270.0ĵ m and at a velocity horizontal to the ground of 14.0î m/is.
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

L = 8694 Kg.m²/s

Explanation:

r = 270 ĵ m

v = 14 î m/s

m = 2.3 kg

θ = 90º

L = ?

We can apply the equation

L = m*v*r*Sin θ

L = (2.3 kg)*(14 m/s)*(270 m)*Sin 90º = 8694 Kg.m²/s

After each charging, a battery is able to hold only 99% of the charge from the previous charging. The battery was used for 5 hou
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

500 hours

Explanation:

The sum of total hours over its lifetime will be given by

T=\frac {T_o}{1-r}

Where T is total time, r is rate in decimal and To is the original charge hours. Substituting the original charge hours with 5 hours and rate as 0.99 then the time will be

T=\frac {5\ hours}{1-0.88}=500\ hours

Therefore, the time is equivalent to 500 hours
