Answer:

ρ = 830.32 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given that

Oil head = 12.2 m

h= 12.2 m

Pressure P = 1.013 x 10⁵ Pa

Lets take density of the liquid =ρ

The pressure due to liquid P given as

P = ρ g h

Now by putting the all values in the above equation

1.013 x 10⁵ Pa = ρ x 10 x 12.2 ( take g =10 m/s²)

ρ = 830.32 kg/m³

Therefore the density of oil is 830.32 kg/m³

Atomic physicists usually ignore the effect of gravity within an atom. To see why, we may calculate and compare the magnitude of

STatiana [176]

Answer:

$2.27\cdot 10^{49}$

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the proton and the electron is given by

$F_G=G\frac{m_p m_e}{r^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

$m_p$ is the proton mass

$m_e$ is the electron mass

r = 3 m is the distance between the proton and the electron

Substituting numbers into the equation,

$F_G=(6.67259\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg s^{-2})\frac{(1.67262\cdot 10^{-27}kg) (9.10939\cdot 10^{-31}kg)}{(3 m)^2}=1.13\cdot 10^{-68}N$

The electrical force between the proton and the electron is given by

$F_E=k\frac{q_p q_e}{r^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb constant

$q_p = q_e = q$ is the elementary charge (charge of the proton and of the electron)

r = 3 m is the distance between the proton and the electron

Substituting numbers into the equation,

$F_E=(8.98755\cdot 10^9 Nm^2 C^{-2})\frac{(1.602\cdot 10^{-19}C)^2}{(3 m)^2}=2.56\cdot 10^{-19}N$

So, the ratio of the electrical force to the gravitational force is

$\frac{F_E}{F_G}=\frac{2.56\cdot 10^{-19} N}{1.13\cdot 10^{-68}N}=2.27\cdot 10^{49}$

So, we see that the electrical force is much larger than the gravitational force.

Answer:

(a). The magnitude of the total acceleration of the ball is 239.97 m/s².

(b). The angle of the total acceleration relative to the radial direction is 11.0°

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of the circle = 0.681 m

Angular acceleration = 67.7 rad/s²

Angular speed =18.6 rad/s

We need to calculate the centripetal acceleration of the ball

Using formula of centripetal acceleration

$a_{c}=\omega^2\times r$

Put the value into the formula

$a_{c}=(18.6)^2\times0.681$

$a_{c}=235.5\ m/s^2$

We need to calculate the tangential acceleration of the ball

Using formula of tangential acceleration

$a_{t}=r\alpha$

Put the value into the formula

$a_{t}=0.681\times67.7$

$a_{t}=46.104\ m/s^2$

(a). We need to calculate the magnitude of the total acceleration of the ball

Using formula of total acceleration

$a=\sqrt{a_{c}^2+a_{t}^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$a=\sqrt{(235.5)^2+(46.104)^2}$

$a=239.97\ m/s^2$

(b). We need to calculate the angle of the total acceleration relative to the radial direction

Using formula of the direction

$\theat=\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{a_{t}}{a_{c}})$

Put the value into the formula

$\theta=\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{46.104}{235.5})$

$\theta=11.0^{\circ}$

Hence, (a). The magnitude of the total acceleration of the ball is 239.97 m/s².

(b). The angle of the total acceleration relative to the radial direction is 11.0°
