Answer:

The surface tension of the water is 6.278×10⁻² N/m

error = 13.65%

Explanation:

The surface tension of water is given by

$ \gamma = \frac{F}{L} $

Where F is the force acting on water and L is the length over which is force is acted.

We are given the mass of 100 droplets of water

M = 3.78 g

n = 100

The mass of 1 droplet is given by

m = \frac{M}{n} \\\\m = \frac{3.78}{100}\\\\m =  0.0378 \: g \\\\m = 3.780\times10^{-5} \: kg

The force acting on a single droplet of water is given by

F = m \cdot g

Where m is the mass of water droplet and g is the acceleration due to gravity

F = 3.780\times10^{-5} \cdot 9.81

F = 3.708\times10^{-4} \: N

The circumferential length of the droplet is given by

L = \pi \cdot d

Where d is the diameter

L = \pi \cdot 1.88\times10^{-3}\\\\L = 5.906 \times10^{-3} \: m

Now we can find out the required surface tension of the water

\gamma = \frac{3.708\times10^{-4} }{5.906 \times10^{-3}} \\\\\gamma = 0.06278\: N/m\\\\\gamma = 6.278 \times10^{-2} \: N/m\\\\

Therefore, the surface tension of the water is 6.278×10⁻² N/m

The tabulated value of the surface tension of water at 20 °C is given by

$ \gamma_t = 0.0727 \: N/m $

The percentage error between tabulated and calculated surface tension is given by

$ error = \frac{\gamma_t - \gamma }{\gamma_t} $

$ error = \frac{ 0.0727 - 0.06278}{0.0727} \times 100\% $

$ error = 13.65 \%

A particular interaction force does work wint inside a system. the potential energy of the interaction is u. which equation rela
larisa86 [58]

ΔU = -Wint

Consdier the work of of interaction is W =m*g*h - equation -1

and the Potential energy U.

Final Potential energy Uf =0 , And the Initial Potential Energy Ui =m*g*h

<span>Now we will write the equation for a Change in Potential energy ΔU,</span>

ΔU = Uf - Ui

= 0-m*g*h

<span>  ΔU = -m*g*h --Equation 2</span>

Now compare the both equation

<span>Wint = -ΔU</span>

we can rewrite the above equation

ΔU = -W.

<span>So our Answer is ΔU = -W. .</span>

A steel tank of weight 600 lb is to be accelerated straight upward at a rate of 1.5 ft/sec2. Knowing the magnitude of the force
VikaD [51]

Answer:

a) the values of the angle α is 45.5°

b) the required magnitude of the vertical force, F is 41 lb

Explanation:

Applying the free equilibrium equation along x-direction

from the diagram

we say

∑Fₓ = 0

Pcosα - 425cos30° = 0

525cosα - 368.06 = 0

cosα = 368.06/525

cosα = 0.701

α = cos⁻¹ (0.701)

α = 45.5°

Also Applying the force equation of motion along y-direction

∑Fₓ = ma

Psinα + F + 425sin30° - 600 = (600/32.2)(1.5)

525sin45.5° + F + 212.5 - 600 = 27.95

374.46 + F + 212.5 - 600 = 27.95

F - 13.04 = 27.95

F = 27.95 + 13.04

F = 40.99 ≈ 41 lb
