What is the pressure of a 300 lb. object on a 100 sq. in. area?

Physics

denis23 [38]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

D. 3 psi

Explanation:

Pressure is defined as force acting per unit area and is numerically expressed as:

P= \frac {F}{A}

where P represent pressure, F is force and A is area where the force acts. Substituting 300 lb for force and 100 sq.in for area then pressure,

P=\frac {300 lb}{100 in^{2}}= 3 \ psi

Therefore, from the choices given, option D, 3psi is the right choice.

What is the difference between gravitational force and the force of gravity
statuscvo [17]

This might help and it might not:

Gravitation is the acting force between two bodies. On the other hand, gravity is the force occurring between an object and the very big object earth. Every object with some mass exerts the gravitational force on every other object having some mass. This force and its strength depend on the masses of the objects under consideration. Gravity helps to keep the planets to move in their orbit around the sun.

Gravitation is the force of attraction between any two bodies in the universe. In our universe, each object attracts each other with a certain amount of force. The large distance of separation is the main reason for its weak nature.

Gravity is the weakest type of fundamental force in nature. Still, it holds together the entire solar systems and galaxies.

Gravity has the existence with unlimited range.

As a new electrical technician, you are designing a large solenoid to produce a uniform 0.170 T magnetic field near the center o
MrRa [10]

Answer:

18.6012339739 A

Explanation:

\mu_0 = Vacuum permeability = 4\pi \times 10^{-7}\ H/m

L = Length of wire = 55 cm

N = Number of turns = 4000

I = Current

Magnetic field is given by

B=\dfrac{\mu_0NI}{L}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{BL}{\mu_0N}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{0.17\times 0.55}{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 4000}\\\Rightarrow I=18.6012339739\ A

The current necessary to produce this field is 18.6012339739 A

Yashoda prepares some lime juice on a hot day. She adds 80 g of ice at a temperature of 0°C to 0.32 kg of lime juice. The temper
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

hear energy required to melt 1 g of ice = 340 J ,

hear energy required to melt 80 g of ice = 340 x 80  J = 27220 J .

b ) energy gained by the melted ice ( water at O°C ) = m ct

where m is mass of water , s is specific heat and t is rise in temperature

= 80 x 4.2 x ( 8°C - 0°C)

= 2688 J .

c )

energy lost by lime juice = energy gained by ice and water

= 27220 J + 2688 J .

= 29908 J .

d )

Let specific heat required be S

Heat lost by lime juice = M S T

M is mass of lime juice , S is specific heat , T is decrease in temperature

= 320 g x S x ( 29 - 8 )°C

= 6720 S

For equilibrium

Heat lost = heat gained

6720 S = 29908 J

S = 4.45 J /g °C .
