The potential difference between points A and B in an electric

Your office has a 0.025 m^3 cylindrical container of drinking water. The radius of the container is about 13 cm. Required:a. Whe

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

a) 105935.7 Pa

b) 103630.35 Pa

Explanation:

The volume of the container = 0.025 m^3

The radius of the container = 13 cm = 0.13 m

We have to find the height of the tank

From the equation for finding the volume of the cylinder,

V = $\pi r^2h$

where

V is the volume of the cylinder

h is the height of the cylinder

substituting values, we have

0.025 = 3.142 x $0.13^2$ x h

0.025 = 0.0531h

h = 0.025/0.0531 = 0.47 m

Pressure at the bottom of the tank P = ρgh

where

ρ is the density of water = 1000 kg/m^3

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

h is the depth of water which is equal to the height of the tank

substituting values, we have

P = 1000 x 9.81 x 0.47 = 4610.7 Pa

atmospheric pressure = 101325 Pa

therefore, the pressure in the tank bottom above atmospheric pressure = 101325 Pa + 4610.7 Pa = 105935.7 Pa

b) For half way down the container, depth of water will be = 0.47/2 = 0.235 m

pressure P = 1000 x 9.81 x 0.235 = 2305.35 Pa

This pressure above atmospheric pressure = 101325 Pa + 2305.35 Pa = 103630.35 Pa

What is the weight of an astronaut who has a mass of 90 kg on the moon? (Note: acceleration due to gravity of the moon is 1.62 N

motikmotik

Answer:

W = 145.8 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must remember that weight is defined as the product of mass by gravity, in this case lunar gravity.

W = m*g

where:

m = mass = 90 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 1.62 [kg/m²]

W = 90*1.62

W = 145.8 [N]

REMARKS The speed found in part (a) is the same as if the woman fell vertically through a distance of 21.9 m. The result of part

sasho [114]

Answer:

Yes, if the system has friction, the final result is affected by the loss of energy.

Explanation:

The result that you are showing is the conservation of mechanical energy between two points in the upper one, the energy is only potential and the lower one is only kinetic.

In the case of some type of friction, the change in energy between the same points is equal to the work of the friction forces

$W_{fr}$ = ΔEm

$W_{fr}$ = $Em_{f}$ -Em₀

As we can see now there is another quantity and for which the final energy is lower and therefore the final speed would be less than what you found in the case without friction.

$Em_{f}$ = $W_{fr}$ + Em₀

Remember that the work of the rubbing force is negative, let's write the work of the rubbing force explicitly, to make it clearer

½ m v² = -fr d + mgh

v = √(-fr d 2/m + 2 gh)

v = √ (2gh - 2fr d/m)

Now it is clear that there is a decrease in the final body speed.

Consequently, if the system has friction, the final result is affected by the loss of energy.

A coffee filter of mass 1.2 grams dropped from a height of 1 m reaches the ground with a speed of 0.8 m/s. How much kinetic ener

iren [92.7K]

Answer: The energy gained by the air molecules is 0.011 J.

Explanation:

Law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.

Here, the potential energy of the coffee filter is getting converted into kinetic energy of the coffee filter and some energy is lost by it which is gained by the air molecules in the form of kinetic energy.

So, calculating the potential energy of coffee filter, we use the equation:

P = mgh

where,

m = mass of coffee filter = 1.2 g = $1.2\times 10^{-3}kg$ (Conversion used: 1 kg = 1000 g)

g = acceleration due to gravity = $9.8m/s^2$

h = height of coffee filter = 1 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$P=1.2\times 10^{-3}kg\times 9.8m/s^2\times 1m\\\\P=1.176\times 10^{-2}J$

Calculating the kinetic energy of coffee filter, we use the equation:

$E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where,

m = mass of coffee filter = 1.2 g = $1.2\times 10^{-3}kg$

v = speed of coffee filter = 0.8 m/s

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$E=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.2\times 10^{-3}kg\times (0.8m/s)^2\\\\E=3.84\times 10^{-4}J$

As, energy lost by coffee filter = energy gained by air molecules

So, energy lost by coffee filter = Potential energy - Kinetic energy

Energy lost by coffee filter = $(1.176\times 10^{-2})-(3.84\times 10^{-4})=0.011J$

Hence, the energy gained by the air molecules is 0.011 J.

A. make an argument for halting the advances of technology? b. make an argument for continuing advances in technology

Naddik [55]

Halting advances in tech could be useful because the automation in many tasks has rendered the human touch obsolete in many lower-level positions. They can be done by machines without the need for stoppage time for breaks. Continuing technology can be useful because it can increase output and make it easier for people to get what they're wanting or needing without spending extravagant amounts of resources.
