3. Atmospheric pressure is often given in units of millimeters of mercury. This refers to the height of a mercury column above t

he mercury's surface at the base of a barometer . The force exerted by the atmosphere on the surface of the mercury in the reservoir equals the weight of the mercury in the column . If the mercury column extends 760 mm above the mercury's surface in the reservoir , what is the atmosphere's pressure over the mercury ? Use 13.6*10^ 3 kg/m^ 3 for the density of mercury

Answer:

101397.16 pa

Explanation:

The pressure recorded will be equal to pgh

Where p = density of mercury = 13.6x10^3 kg/m^ 3

g = acceleration due to gravity 9.81 m/s^2

h = height of mercury in the column = 760 mm = 760x10^-3 m

Pressure = 13.6x10^3 x 9.81 x 760x10^-3 = 101397.16 pa

How does the mass affect the speed as it rolls down a slope?
VikaD [51]
As we use the Kinetic energy and the equation is 1/2mv^2, changing its mass will change its speed and its energy. So more mass, more speed more energy. also the gravitational potential energy; mass x gravity x height; more mass and more height more speed as it go down to the slope! Hope it helps!

What two forces are most responsible for the formation of the cascade mountains
Ilya [14]
<span>The two foremost forces that were involved in the creation of the Cascade mountains are those of the tidal and tectonic forces. Tidal forces helped in eroding anything that was there previously, and the tectonic forces caused the eruption of these mountains to take place.</span>
