7) Straws work on the principle of the outside atmospheric pressure pushing the fluid (for example water) up the straw after you

have lowered the pressure at the top of the straw (in your mouth). Assuming you could create a perfect vacuum in your mouth, what is the longest vertical straw you could drink water from?

Answer:

The longest straw will be 10.328 meters long.

Explanation:

The water will rise up to a height pressure due to which will balance the atmospheric pressure.

We know

P_{atm}=101325N/m^{2}

Pressure due to water column of height 'h'

P_{water}=1000\times 9.81\times h

Equating both the values we get the value of height 'h' as

h=\frac{101325}{1000\times 9.81}\\\\h=10.328m

A 16 g piece of Styrofoam carries a net charge of -8.6 µC and floats above the center of a large horizontal sheet of plastic tha
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

the charge per unit area on the plastic sheet is - 3.23 x 10⁻⁷ C/m²

Explanation:

given information:

styrofoam mass, m = 16 g = 0.016 kg

net charge, q = - 8.6 μC

to calculate the charge per unit area on the plastic sheet, we can use the following equation:

F_{e} = mg

where

F_{e} = the force between the electric field

m = mass

g = gravitational force

F_{e} =qE

where

q = charge

E = electric field

and

E = σ/2ε₀

where

ε₀ = permitivity

thus

F_{e} =qE

mg = qσ/2ε₀

σ = (2mg ε₀)/q

  = 2 (0.016) (9.8)  (8.85 x 10⁻¹²)/( - 8.6 x 10⁻⁶)

  = - 3.23 x 10⁻⁷ C/m²

Seberkas cahaya monokromatik dijatuhkan pada kisi difraksi dengan 5000 goresan/cm menghasilkan spectrum garis terang orde kedua
Vlada [557]

Answer:

500 nm

Explanation:

In this problem, we have a diffraction pattern created by light passing through a diffraction grating.

The formula to find a maximum in the pattern produced by a diffraction grating is the following:

d sin \theta = m\lambda

where:

d is the distance between the lines in the grating

\theta is the angle at which the maximum is located

m is the order of the maximum

\lambda is the wavelength of the light used

In this problem we have:

\theta=30^{\circ} is the angle at which is located the 2nd-order bright line, which is the 2nd maximum

n = 5000 lines/cm is the number of lines per centimetre, so the distance between two lines is

d=\frac{1}{d}=\frac{1}{5000}=2\cdot 10^{-4} cm = 2\cdot 10^{-6} m

Re-arranging the equation for \lambda, we find the wavelength of the light used:

\lambda=\frac{d sin \theta}{m}=\frac{(2\cdot 10^{-6})(sin 30^{\circ})}{2}=5\cdot 10^{-7} m = 500 nm

small plastic container, called the coolant reservoir, catches the radiator fluid that overflowswhen the automobile engine becom
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

0.53 quart

Explanation:

The volume expansion of the coolant is gotten from ΔV = VγΔθ where ΔV   = change in volume of the coolant, V = initial volume of coolant = 15 quart, γ = coefficient of volume expansion of coolant = 410 × 10⁻⁶ /°C and Δθ = temperature change = θ₂ - θ₁ where θ₁ = initial temperature of coolant = 6 °C and θ₂ = final temperature of coolant = 92 °C. So, Δθ = θ₂ - θ₁ = 92 °C - 6 °C = 86 °C

Since, ΔV = VγΔθ

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

ΔV = VγΔθ

ΔV = 15 × 410 × 10⁻⁶ /°C × 86 °C

ΔV = 528900 × 10⁻⁶ quart

ΔV = 0.528900 quart

ΔV ≅ 0.53 quart

Since the change in volume of the coolant equals the spill over volume, thus the overflow from the radiator will spill into the reservoir when the coolant reaches its operating temperature of 92 °C is 0.53 quart.
