Answer - 12,900 Newtons

Explanation

First, we find the volume of the water
Volume = Area * Heinght
= 1.5 m² x 7 m
=  10.5 m³
 
Covert the volume to liters
1 m³ of water = 1000  liters
10.5 m³ of water = 10.5 m³ * 1000 liters liter/m³
= 10,500 liters
 
Use the volume of water to calculate the mass
1 liter of water weighs 1 kg
10,500 liters of water = 10,500 * 1 kg/liter
= 10,500 kg
 
Now, we can calculate the force of gravity on the water
Force of gravity on the water = Weight of the water
Weight = Mass * Acceleration
 
Mass = 10,500kg
Acceleration (due to gravity) = 9.8 m/s²

Force of gravity on the water
= Weight of the water
= Mass * Acceleration
= 10,500 kg * 9.8 m/s²
 = 102,900 Newtons

22. State any three features of the electroscope.​
MatroZZZ [7]
-1- was created in the 1600 by william gilbert
-2-When the charge is positive, electrons in the metal of the electroscope are attracted to the charge and move upward out of the leaves. This results in the leaves to have a temporary positive charge and because like charges repel, the leaves separate. When the charge is removed, the electrons return to their original positions and the leaves relax
3-

An electroscope is made up of a metal detector knob on top which is connected to a pair of metal leaves hanging from the bottom of the connecting rod. When no charge is present the metals leaves hang loosely downward. But, when an object with a charge is brought near an electroscope, one of the two things can happen.

Some machines do not multiply the force that is applied to them
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

Machine Efficiency

Explanation:

Efficiency is the percent of work put into a machine by the user (input work) that becomes work done by the machine (output work). The output work is always less than the input work because some of the input work is used to overcome friction. Therefore, efficiency is always less than 100 percent

1. An 800-gram bowling ball is rolling in a straight line toward you. If its momentum is 16 kg•m/sec, how fast is it traveling?
ziro4ka [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

The ball is rolling at a speed of 0.02 meter per second.

<u>Step by step explanation:</u>

We are given that there is a 800 gram bowling ball rolling in a straight line. If its momentum is given to be 16 kg.m/sec, we are to find its velocity.

For this, we will use the formula of momentum.

<em>Momentum = mass × velocity</em>

16 = 800 × velocity

Velocity = 16/800 = 0.02 meter per second
