Answer:

211 mmHg

Explanation:

Absolute Pressure = Gauge Pressure + Atmospheric pressure

128 = Gauge Pressure + 100

Gauge Pressure = 28 KPa = 28 × 10³ Pa

Also Gauge Pressure = ρgh

ρ = density = 13550 kg/m³

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = pressure head = ?

28 × 10³ = 13550 × 9.8 × h

h = 28000/(13550 × 9.8)

h = 0.211 m = 211 mm

a object with a mass of 70 kilograms is supported at a height 8 meters above the ground.what's the potential energy of the objec
Agata [3.3K]
Potential Energy = mgh,

where m = mass in kg,  g ≈ 10 m/s², h = height above ground = 8 m

PE = mgh
  
      = 70*10*8 = 5600 J

You need to push a heavy box across a rough floor, and you want to minimize the average force applied to the box during the time
7nadin3 [17]

When pushing the body it is necessary to break the frictional force generated by the floor. Once this frictional force is overcome, the body will begin to move. Ideally, if a constant velocity is maintained or close to this value, the acceleration that will be exerted will tend to be zero and therefore, by Newton's second law the value of the Force will also tend to minimum values.

Remember that this law tells us that

F= ma

F= m \frac{\Delta v}{t}

Therefore the best strategy is A. keep pushing the box forward at a steady speed
