Two identical cylindrical vessels with their bases at the same level each contain a liquid of density 1.23 g/cm3. The area of ea

ch base is 3.89 cm2, but in one vessel the liquid height is 0.993 m and in the other it is 1.76 m. Find the work done by the gravitational force in equalizing the levels when the two vessels are connected.

Explanation:

Work done by gravity is given by the formula,

           W = \rho A (h_{1} - h)g (h - h_{2}) ......... (1)

It is known that when levels are same then height of the liquid is as follows.

           h = \frac{h_{1} + h_{2}}{2} ......... (2)

Putting value of equation (2) in equation (1) the overall formula will be as follows.

       W = \frac{1}{4} \rho gA(h_{1} - h_{2})^{2})

           = \frac{1}{4} \times 1.23 g/cm^{3} \times 9.80 m/s^{2} \times 3.89 \times 10^{-4} m^{2}(1.76 m - 0.993 m)^{2})

           = 0.689 J

Thus, we can conclude that the work done by the gravitational force in equalizing the levels when the two vessels are connected is 0.689 J.

What is air pressure?
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

A. Earth's gravity pulling down on air molecules

Explanation:

Air pressure refers to the weight of the air per unit surface area. It is the amount of gravitational force which is pulling down the molecules of air.

The common unit of air pressure is: Pascal, atm

1 atm = 101325 Pa

As the column of the air above increases, the air pressure increase. This is because with the increase in amount of air, the weight increase of the air increases. This is the reason a diver feels immense pressure in the sea and cooking takes a lot of time on hilly areas because of low air pressure.

a bowling ball has a mass of 6 kilograms. a tennis ball has a mass of 0.06 kilogram. how much inertia does the bowling ball have
Andreyy89

Answer:

100 times

Explanation:

Since inertia is directly proportional to the mass of an object, the higher the mass the higher the inertia. In this case, 6 Kg is 100 times heavier than 0.06 Kg to imply The bowling ball  has 100 times more inertia than the tennis  ball because it has 100 times more mass

What is the kinetic energy of a 1 kilogram ball is thrown into the air with an initial velocity of 30 m/sec
disa [49]
To find this we should use the equation Ek=1/2mv^2 where Ek is the kinetic energy, m is the mass and v is the velocity. So by this Ek=1/2*1*30^2 which then makes Ek=450 joules
