Answer:

A). 1.9 cm

Explanation:

m = Mass of brick = 12 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

r = Radius of hose

A = Area = \pi r^2

F = Force = mg

Let us assume that the pressure required to lift the brick would be atmospheric pressure

P=\dfrac{F}{A}\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{F}{\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\dfrac{F}{\pi P}}\\\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\dfrac{12\times 9.81}{\pi\times 101325}}\\\Rightarrow r=0.01923\ m=1.9\ cm

The radius of the hose should be 1.9 cm

How does a mirage occur in a deser?explain with a labelled diagram.​
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Mirages happen when the ground is very hot and the air is cool.

Explanation:

They happen when light passes through two layers of air with different temperatures. The desert sun heats the sand, which in turn heats the air just above it. The hot air bends light rays and reflects the sky.

When you see it from a distance, the different air masses colliding with each other act as a mirror.

A train station bell gives off a fundamental tone of 500 Hz as the train approaches the station at a speed of 20 m/s. If the spe
Brut [27]

Answer: 529.9 Hz

Explanation:

Here we need to use the Doppler equation, so we have:

f' = f*(v + v0)/(v - vs)

Here, f is the frequency = 500Hz

v is the velocity of the wave, = 334m/s

v0 is the velocity of the observer = 20m/s

vs is the velocity of the source = 0m/s

Then we have:

f' = 500Hz*(334m/s + 20m/s)/(334m/s) = 529.9 Hz
