Answer: 5.06\times10^{9}

At sea level, there is one standard atmospheric pressure which is equal to 101.325 kilopascals.

The pressure of faintest sound that a human ear can hear is 20 micro-pascals.

taking the ratio of two:

\frac {101.325 kilopascals. }{20 micropascals} = \frac {101.325 \times 10^{3}Pa}{20 \times 10^{-6}Pa}

=5.06\times10^{9}

Hence, the atmospheric pressure at sea level is 5.06\times10^{9} times greater than the faintest sound that a human ear can hear.

Shkiper50 [21]

You are in an early universe.

In the study of the evolution of the universe, it has been determined before Plank time (before the big bang and right after it), the early universe had the following characteristics:

  • There was only one single force acting over all that existed.
  • The early universe was very hot and dense because all matter had contracted before the big bang.
  • Space and time were wrapped.

These characteristics match the ones described, based on this, we can conclude you are in an early universe.

Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. A wire carries a current of 21.8 A from west to east. Assume that a
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Themagnitude of the force is 0.0415N and is directed vertically upwards. The solution to this problem uses the relationship between the Force experienced by a conductor in a magnetic field, the current flowing through the conductor, the length of the conductor and the magnitude of the electric field vector.

Mathematically this can be expressed as

F = I × L ×B

Where F = Force in newtons N

I = current in ampres A

L = length of the conductor in meters (m)

B = magnetic field vector in T

Explanation:

The calculation can be found in the attachment below.

Thedirection of the force can be found by the application of the Fleming's right hand rule. Which states that hold out the right hand with the index finger pointing in the direction of the magnetic field and the thumb pointing in the direction of the current in the conductor, then the direction which the middle finger points is the direction of the force exerted on the conductor. By applying this the direction is vertically upwards.

A man standing in an elevator holds a spring scale with a load of 5 kg suspended from it. What would be the reading of the scale
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

3.1 kg

Explanation:

Applying,

R = m(g-a)..................... Equation 1

Where R = weight of the scale when the elevator is coming down, a = acceleration of the elevator, g = acceleration due to gravith.

From the question,

Given: m = 5 kg, a = 3.8 m/s²

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

R = 5(9.8-3.8)

R = 5(6)

R = 30 N

Hence the spring scale is

m' = R/g

m' = 30/9.8

m' = 3.1 kg
